Engineering Branches

A society needs three things to advance:

The first is security to defend itself against both internal and external
threats to its individuals and to the entire society, so that the people are free
to pursue their goals.
The second is the economy to produce goods for consumption, provide
services, and improve the overall quality of life.
The third is the science applied in the engineering branches. As engineering is
the applied form of science.
Engineering is the application of scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge
in order to invent, design, build, maintain, and improve structures, machines, devices,
systems, materials and processes.
There are many engineering branches like Chemical engineering, Civil engineering,
Electrical engineering, Mechanical engineering, Biological engineering, Industrial
engineering, Mechatronics engineering, Nuclear engineering, Petroleum engineering
and more and more
Let's talk about the branches one by one:
Chemical Engineering: Chemical engineers used applied principles of different
scientific disciplines such as chemistry, physics and biology to come up with
solutions to technical problems. They can usually be seen working in places like
manufacturing plants, laboratories and plants to monitor facilities and operations.
Chemical engineers deal with problems ranging from food, paper, drugs, fertilizers,
fuel and other complex chemical processes.
Civil Engineering: Civil engineers are concerned with the design, development and
maintenance of construction projects such as those involving bridges, buildings,
dams, roads and other large structures.


Electrical Engineering: Electrical engineering (EE) involves the study and application
of electricity and electronics and it deals with generating and transporting electricity
using the proper scientific ways.
Mechanical Engineering: Mechanical engineering applies physical principles and
materials science to the design, manufacture and analysis of mechanical systems like
factories and power plants.
Mechatronics: Mechatronics combines mechanical engineering and electrical
engineering, frequently in the analysis of automated systems. Robotics, avionics and
instrumentation engineering
Nuclear Engineering: Nuclear engineering is the practical application of nuclear
processes, such as those used to produce and harness nuclear power to generate
electricity or be used as nuclear batteries in space ships.
Petroleum Engineering: Petroleum engineers apply scientific principles to detect, drill
and extract crude oil and natural gas.
Biological Engineering: Biological engineering is applied biology and medicine. It
includes biomedical engineering, biochemical engineering, protein engineering, genetic
engineering and tissue engineering.
Biomedical Engineering: Biomedical engineering applies engineering principles to
medical and biological problems and systems. This branch commonly deals with medical
therapies, monitoring devices and diagnostic tools.
Automotive Engineering: automotive engineering is the field of engineering
which deals with the study as how to design, manufacture and operate automobiles
like buses, trucks, cars etc. and also their respective engineering subsystems.
Production Engineering: Production engineering is a combination of
manufacturing technology with management science in order to create a specific
tool for the industrial processes

Architecture: Architectural engineering is the application
of engineering principles and technology to to design structures and it is very
different from civil engineering
Marine Engineer: These engineers design the mechanical systems found in large
marine vessels such as ships, submarines, and tankers. They use their background on
mechanical and electrical engineering to come up with these mechanical systems
Aerospace Engineer: Aerospace engineers deal with the designing of airborne crafts that
are launched on to the atmosphere and even outer space. They are involved in the construction
and design of aircraft, missiles, spacecraft and satellites.
