What is Engineering?
At its heart, Engineering is a profession built around the goal of being useful. It could be simple, daily value, like providing a road beneath your feet or a stream of clean water to your house. It could be complex and extraordinary, like taking a lump of aluminum and turning it into a machine that can soar across the sky. Engineers learn an extensive amount of mathematics and physical science to make these outcomes possible and, as the National Academy of Engineering would say, we're calling all big thinkers.
