Engineering Careers and Technology EducationMr. TanakaCareers in Engineering and TechnologyEngineers are the people who:Design solutions to technical problems.Work in both governmental agencies and private companiesDiverse fields with many different career pathsVery rewarding because you know you are working to make the world a better place for people to live!Aerospace EngineersDesigns machines that fly. Two types:Aeronautical: Aircraft such as, helicopters, commercial passenger jets, military fighter jetsAstronautical: Spacecraft such as, Space transportation, space stations, missiles

Civil EngineersDesigns and supervises the construction of public works projects.Preserve the environment by controlling flooding and designing less polluting power plants.The work strengthens the economy and improves the quality of lifeCan you think of any examples?Highways, bridges, sanitation facilities, and water treatment plants, etc.

Electrical EngineersDesigns and develop electronic systems and products.Examples?GPS technology, electrical power generating stations, Televisions, Computers, iPhones, TV broadcasting system, electronic thermostat for heating and AC systems, etc.

Environmental EngineersDesigns solutions to protect and maintain the environment. Guess what they doProtecting and maintaining our environmentControlling air and water pollution, waste disposal, and public health issues.

Industrial EngineersDesign the most efficient means of manufacturing products.Look at how people and machines interact.Would investing millions of dollars in new robotic equipment improve productivity??

Mechanical EngineersDeals with a wide variety of problems involving energy, materials, tools, and machines, such as??Simple toys to very large and complex machines.Internal combustion engineers, elevators, escalators, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.

Engineering TechnologistWorks in fields closely related to engineeringMore practical than the work of engineersWorks with engineers and scientists and decide the best method.

Engineers and Engineering TechnologistEngineers are more concerned with designing solutions.Engineering technologists are more often involved with taking the engineers design and making the final product.How do you become engineers?Take related classes in high school.Do well in Science and Math classes.Get Associate of Applied Science (AAS) in two years college; orGet Bachelors degree in engineering.Two Year- Colleges: Degrees in Engineering Technology.Aerospace Engineering TechnologyAir Conditioning Engineering TechnologyArchitectural Engineering TechnologyAutomotive Engineering TechnologyBioengineering TechnologyCeramic Engineering TechnologyChemical Engineering TechnologyCivil Engineering Technology Computer Engineering TechnologyConstruction Engineering TechnologyDrafting and DesignElectrical Engineering TechnologyElectromechanical Engineering TechnologyEnvironmental Engineering TechnologyIndustrial Engineering TechnologyInstrumentation Engineering TechnologyManufacturing Engineering TechnologyMechanical Engineering TechnologyNaval Architecture and MarineNuclear Engineering TechnologyPlastics Engineering TechnologySurveying Engineering TechnologyTelecommunications Engineering Technology
