Engineering Disasters One of the most famous engineers was Thomas Edison who famously stated that “ [he had] not failed, [he had discovered] 10,000 ways that did not work”. Despite Edison’s numerous failures, he eventually perfected his version of the light bulb, got it patented and proceeded to make his invention available to consumers. Edison’s approach illustrates the engineer’s ideal process, as he repeatedly tests and perfects the design of the desired result before releasing the result to…

“Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering that applies physical sciences (e.g. chemistry and physics) and life sciences (e.g. biology, microbiology and biochemistry) together with mathematics and economics to produce, transform, transport, and properly use chemicals, materials and energy (Cohen, 1996).” The field of chemical engineering is very diverse, covering areas from biotechnology to mineral processing. It would take too long to list all the products that are impacted by chemical…

Statement of Purpose I am a senior at Wichita State University studying Biomedical Engineering. I expect to graduate in May of 2018 with magna cum laude distinction. As an undergraduate, I have the opportunity to tutor underclassmen in physics. Eventually, I became an undergraduate teaching assistant as well. Both of these made me realize how much I enjoy helping students learn, which made me think about pursuing graduate education to become a college professor. Assisting in a biomechanics lab…

• Aerospace engineering and computer sciences are important in today’s society because without these two fields, life as we know it would not be possible. Aerospace engineering is responsible for many inventions that we take for granted every day. Things like the rumble strips down the highways, braces, Velcro, Febreze, and much more. Without aerospace engineering inventions like these would not exist. By exploring how to travel in space, different inventions are made that citizens can use in…

dream to be part of a team that would pioneer in rehabilitation engineering. Ever since I had discovered my passion in biomedical engineering, I wanted to extend my skills into helping physically challenged or differently abled people by creating assist devices for them. My final year project was also based on developing such an assist device. Of the years spent in studying the course, I believe I have a liking to rehabilitation engineering and robotics. motivation letter Biomedical…

Communication in Industrial Engineering The world will always need engineers to bring ideas into life, however engineering is not for everyone. Thankfully, there are many different branches of engineering, whether it be mechanical, electrical, chemical, etc. One commonly overlooked is the field of industrial engineering. After I was certain I wanted to go into engineering, I took a good look at all the fields available. I decided that industrial engineering was the best fit for me, but I still…

I hope and pray to land a job when I graduate in May 2018. Currently I am actively seeking job with service companies, like Halliburton, Weatherford, FTS International, etc. Most of the service companies have great training program for recent graduates. With service companies, recent graduates start as field engineers. A field engineer is very hands on position. Field engineers are expected to work 84 to 100+ hours a week in not so ideal, outdoor condition. While some of my peers are deterred by…

which have to do with solving medical and healthcare matters. As population increases, as does the risk of an increase in the spread of disease or epidemic growth. This calls for a growing need in biomedical engineering to develop the ideas to save humanity in the future. Biomedical Engineering is a complex process of solving, and then designing ways to solve problems in the human body using medicines or technology to improve humanities overall health. More specifically, Biomedical Neural…

What makes a civil engineer different than any of the many other branches of engineering? Well it is certain that all branches of engineering must have a proficient understanding of math, science and technology in order to succeed (Georgia Tech, “What is Engineering”). Civil engineers however must be able to take the knowledge from these three areas and apply to create or enhance public works. A public work is nearly every type of transportation and transportation center, including space…
