Intro to Engineering

WHAT’S ENGINEERS?

WHY CHOOSE ENGINEERING?

you've probably heard the word engineering before and you probably have been told us pretty important.

what exactly is engineering and who exactly is an engineer?Engineers’ people who designed and build things, that we can every day. However they don't just go building the first thing that comes to mind they worked hard to make something. we need and they want to do a good job of it. So how to engineers decide What they need to build? Well, in most cases, well they you start with a question. 

Here's an example: So, you live on a space station, and something outside break. Obviously, you need to go outside and in fixes, but how exactly thing you do that? That’s a great question for engineers once they've got a good had was and things they will start and imagining the ways to solve the problem. They’ll come up with all kinds of idea, and some that might even seem a little…..crazy! That's important and because sometimes the craziest ideas the one that works best. After coming up with these ideas, they’ll pick a few ideas that makes the most sense. Next they will star a drawing plane. Depending on the idea the plane can be very simple…. or very complicated. But the important part the plane itself. A good playing helps engineers focus on what they're making and most importantly, why. Now, the engineers get to have some real fun. They get to create something. It’s important to stick to the plan, though, so the idea doesn’t go too for off course. Once they build it and they have to test experimentation is very important because it's here in and engineers learned what works and well what doesn't and while it's great when something goes right on the first try it's actually good when things don't because that gives engineers a chance go back and improve on their original idea. And improved they will…until they solved with problem. So, the next time you've got a problem to solve whether simple or complicated.  There's probably a team of engineers ready to create something to solve it. and nobody solves engineering problems quite like NASA.
