Does this sound like you?
I love learning by doing. My favorite activities at school involve hands on experiences such as labs, field trips, and research.
I love science and math concepts. I learn about them in the classroom and how to apply them to the real world.
I love working with digital devices and thinking about new applications that can help people solve problems. I am curious about how computer software and hardware work together to complete tasks and make people’s lives easier.
I enjoy working with people from different areas of expertise with different strengths.
I am a problem-solver. I have a knack for asking smart questions that help others identify problems and issues. I work with others to formulate solutions to problems.
I am a detail-oriented planner who can provide clear instructions that are easy for others to follow.

“There’s nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind.” - Bill Nye
Explore Some of the Fields of Engineering
Aerospace engineering is the study of the design, development, and production of air and spacecraft.
Automotive engineers research, design and develop vehicles and their subsystems
Biomedical engineers work with a combination of biology, medicine and engineering. They are trained to analyze and design solutions that will improve patient care.
Chemical engineers utilize their knowledge of the physical world to manipulate the interactions of individual atoms and molecules.
Civil engineers specialize in road, bridge, buildings and water supply system design and construction. They supervise and direct construction teams and work with other engineers.
Computer Engineers develop and improve the software programs and hardware that make computers run. Computer Engineers may specialize in either software or hardware.
Drafting and Design Engineering is a career that allows the engineer to be involved in all stages of the design process, from conception to presentation of the finished plans.
Electrical engineers specialize in power supply and generation. They design, develop, test and supervise electrical equipment manufacturing. They have also handle wiring and lighting installations in buildings, automobiles and aircraft.
Environmental engineers use science and engineering principles to protect and improve the environment. The quality of air, water, and soil is their primary focus. They seek solutions to water-borne diseases, wastewater management, and air pollution.
Geological engineering involves geology, civil engineering, and fields such as mining, forestry and geography. These engineers apply earth sciences to human problems.
Marine Engineers are responsible for the design and construction of seagoing vessels and structures, focusing primarily on their internal systems. Designing and building vessels and structures that can withstand the wind, waves and salt exposure requires special education and experience.
Mechanical engineering is the study of motion, energy and force. The mechanical engineer seeks to control these elements by using a combination of material, human and economic resources to develop mechanical solutions.
Petroleum engineers specialize in designing and developing technology and methods for digging the earth’s surface to extract oil and gas.
Software engineers are specialists who are in charge of the testing, design, development and maintenance of computer software for business and personal use.They apply the principles of mathematics, engineering and computer science in creating managing software.
“Strive for perfection in everything you do. Take the best that exists and make it better. When it does not exist, design it.” - Sir Henry Royce
