Reasons for Entering Engineering.

• Challenges, Curiosity, Excitement.• Money, Travel, Status• To make a difference in the world, to change

something.• Want job in big Company.• I want to start something of my own ( entrepreneurship).

• DOUBT--“It’s too hard” , “I can’t do it”• I do not know what I am suppose to do.• Not enough emphasis on people, “It’s all

machines.”• Not getting the basic Concepts.

Reasons for Leaving Engineering.

Should You Become Engineer.Should You Become Engineer.

• No single quality will make you a good engineer. • Engineering is a field that requires many people with

different skills to work together to solve complex problems in a simple way.

• Here are some personal qualities that will help you become a successful engineer.

• Remember that not all these are necessary and there is no precise formula.

• Interest in Engineering• Analytical Skills.• Problem Solving Attitude & Skill.• Communication Skill.• Proficiency in Maths & Physics.• Persistence.• Listening Skill.• Team Attitude.

Civil Engineering…Civil Engineering…

They design, oversee construction and oversee maintenance of… Highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, dams, reservoirs, oil platforms, pipelines.

The work of civil engineers is among the most visible and the most awe-inspiring !!

This is one of the oldest branches of engineering. Civil engineers work on large-scale projects like road, rail, bridge and oil rig construction. Often employed by consulting firms, they plan and oversee projects; or work for contracting firms, and see that work is done according to client specifications. Management skills, teamwork and communication skills are particularly important because of the large-scale nature of much of the work that they do.

Imagine World Without CE

Mechanical Engineering…Mechanical engineers design motors, tools, machines, and many other devices…

Mechanical engineers will be leading the revolution taking place in manufacturing processes, in which products are made without defects are and greater efficiencies achieved.

They work on designing and building robots, air conditioners, automobiles, airplanes, satellites, and artificial hearts!

They work for large manufacturing corporations, small companies, and government agencies.

Mechanical Engineering…

Mechanical Engineering…Mechanical Engineering…Mechanical engineers do the research, design and production of any machinery with moving parts. These can mean from huge machines to micro-components of robots.

Mechanical engineers have skills needed for most other fields of engineering, thus will spend a lot of time working with engineers from other disciplines. They must have an ability and willingness to apply technological and design principles to mechanical problems.

Imagine World Without Mechanical Engineers.

Industrial Engineering…Industrial Engineering…

• This is considered a branch of mechanical engineering.

• Industrial Engineers determine the most effective way for an organisation to use its resources (people, machines, materials, information and energy)

• People oriented engineers• Must know management • practices
