...| Role of Engineering Science | Marc Ramroop ID No : 58391 | | Sharon Mohammed | | | 10/3/2012 | | Engineering is the art or science of making practical application of the knowledge of pure sciences such as physics or chemistry, as well as the construction of engines, bridges, mines, ships and chemical plants. John Smeaton was the first self-proclaimed civil engineer ,and is often regarded as the father of civil engineering. He was English and helped establish the design for bridges, canals, harbours and lighthouses. Smeaton designed the third Eddystone lighthouse (1775-59) where he pioneered the use of ‘hydraulic lime’ (a form of mortar which will set under water) He is important in the history, rediscovery of, and development of modern cement, because he identified the compositional requirements needed to obtain ‘hydraulicity’ in lime. The role and application of engineering science is important based on inventing and creating new ideas. It is from these roles in engineering science , we develop and enhance answers to our problems. we do this such that experiments are carried out and prove whether or not our predictions were made accurately or inaccurately. Engineering science has a huge role in the history of bridges. Engineering Science has matured bridges into being one of the best creations man has designed. Engineering Science allows engineers to make bridges towards their intention and determine variables which can produce better bridges....

...I have completed my Bachelor of Science in civil engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and technology (BUET) with Environment major. It was never easy for someone like me who came from a lower class family, whose father is a poor farmer and mother is a housewife. I have a struggling story about ups and downs of my life. I had started my student life at age of five at nearest primary school. I was the best among the student of my class. Every teacher used to expect something different from me. Although I was the first, I failed to fulfill their expectation at my first public scholarship exam. Then I went to secondary school and as well as the primary school, I was one of three bests of my class. I had to walk nine kilometers every day to attend school. Teachers believed in my potential and for second time I failed to prove me. Although I failed to prove me at public exam, I was the best of my school until next public exam for a certificate. I failed to satisfy everyone including me. After completing my secondary school, I attended college to complete my higher secondary study at nearest district and also to change my life. When I admitted at the college, I was 200th out of 300 students on the basis of my previous result. This time I had to walk only 5-6 kilometers a day and I was happy with that. But I really wanted to change everything and this time I was successful. I was one of the six best students of my college and achieved best student award from the principal...

...beginning will change everything down to a distinct thought. History has proven that the steps forward in technology within engineering have grown larger and are concluded at a more rapid rate and within the last twenty years. Such a large amount has improved so rapid as cities grow and technology advances, engineering is moving along with the tide. Engineers that grow and see their world of work improve every day because of certain advances in technology all depending on their field. This how engineering features evolved into what they are today from within the last two decades; and how the change will continue to advance as modern Technology embraces a post-modern era. Engineering has existed since the earliest times of culture and perhaps is one of the older lines of labor on earth (the earliest invention of engineering goes back as early as the invention of the wheel). It’s extraordinary that we came so far since the discovery of the wheel. The technology that has been accomplished today just engulfs the minds of people. Everyday modern technology is taken over the minds of people and they continue to adapt to the modern changes within the ever changing society. Through centuries there are trails left by ancient engineering and has differed from our technology today. Through the ancient era there has been astounding and un-answering feats of engineering. Like the great pyramids of Egypt and the great coliseums of Rome. They manufactured these man-made objects so big with no...

...Several factors influence the fact that girls are participating less and show less motivation to take parting science education. Some of the reasons are related to differences in ways boys, girls learn, and the content of science education reflected in gender-biased curricula, textbooks, which are not related to women’s and girls’ concerns and interests. Many of these factors are bound up with cultural and societal influences. Being a woman in engineering industry is different from being a man in engineering industry. Not better, not worse, but different. Gone are the days when female engineers were masculine, grim women who were constantly exhausting themselves to be considered equal to men. The nouveau woman engineer is ambitious, comfortable in her own skin, strong, intelligent and feminine. This paper contains the path, women entered in to engineering field and the initial phase of difficulties they faced. The facts and reasons, which were dragged them in to Engineering field, are explained. The main difficulties and hurdles are discussed once they entered in to the field. The different field of study shows that women choose engineering mainly because they enjoy the underlying mathematics and science. Working professionals in industry or government perceive that women assume a more indirect, supporting role; however, women overall strongly affirm their selection of engineering despite some negative factors. The comparison graphs and charts show the exponential growth of women engineers...
