GENERAL ARTICLE

EXCITING ENGINEERING




Engineering is one of the most rewarding and fun professions in the world. A degree in any engineering field can take you all over the world and help you make a nice salary. An engineering degree doesn't just teach you how to be a great engineer, but rather a great manager, businessman, and entrepreneur.

Being an engineer means you are paid to create and innovate each and every day. During their careers, engineers have to tackle various projects regardless of their area of expertize or education. What's better than that? Whether you're into physics, construction or something else, you will always have the necessary tools to develop your own systems and projects. Engineering degrees are highly respected and engineers are needed all over the world. This means that you can literally work wherever you desire or travel as you would like. Whether you've finished a mechanical, electrical or civil engineering school or college, your services will be in a high demand.

Engineers have a huge impact on the world : If you want to come home at the end of your day and feel like you have made a difference, most engineering professions provide great avenues for helping others. As you start to develop as a professional, you will be working on bigger projects, building higher buildings and helping people all over the world.


Hands-on, fun work : Practically every engineering profession involves hands-on work that will keep you involved throughout the day. You can sit behind a computer if you would like, but getting out there and making new stuff is a breeze in engineering. This makes the profession so much more interesting as students can start developing their own projects before they complete respective college programs.

Open job market : If you hold one particular engineering degree, that doesn't mean you can't transfer and work in a completely different specialty. Engineering graduate can work wherever he likes regardless of his field of study! Those who are interested in this profession have to be flexible; they have to understand various technical and industrial aspects, to work with various data and perhaps even be involved in the management process and training.

Learn how to make awesome things : Being an engineer comes with a wealth of knowledge that enables you to build things that will amaze your friends. Each new project will improve your skills, teach you how to solve various problems and utilize resources and materials to the best of your abilities. We can't guarantee you will be able to drive a skid steer with that level of skill though; you will have to finish a special course to do that!

DO YOU KNOW?

1.Earth is old : Researchers calculate the age of the Earth by dating both the oldest rocks on the planet and meteorites that have been discovered on Earth (meteorites and Earth formed at the same time, when the solar system was forming). Their findings? Earth is about 4.54 billion years old!

2.Our next fact is also a fun little way to test your listening skills. Listen to the following sentence and think about what is unusual or special about it:

"He believed Caesar could see people seizing the seas".

This sentence has seven words with the vowel sound /i:/. There are seven ways in English to spell the /i:/ sound – yes, seven! You will hear more about the oddities of English spelling in a minute.

3.If you publish a book in Norway, the government will buy 1000 copies (1,500 if a children’s book) and distribute them to libraries throughout the country.

4.If you look at the underlying symmetry in a wallpaper pattern then mathematicians have shown that there are only 17 possibilities.  You can of course vary the colours and decoration, but you will still only be left with 17 different possible symmetries.

5.This next one may shock you: The shortest possible grammatically correct complete sentence in the English language is a word made of just two letters: Go! It is a command, which is a sentence that asks or tells people to do something. In a command, the subject (you) is not spoken or written. Instead, it is simply understood.
