WHAT DO ENGINEERS DO?

It's very hard to describe what engineers do in 20 words or less, which is why so many people don't really know what engineers do ... until now. We've managed to develop an accurate 20-word description. We've also added a little show & tell for good measure!

Engineers change the world by making people's lives better!

(They do so with creative use of science, math, and technology.)

WHAT DO ENGINEERS DO?

Or create a car with no steering wheel or pedals ... because the car drives itself?

What if you could have a functioning hand for the first time ...

and then print a new one when you need it?

Or design a robot that assembles and reconfigures itself?

Or have a pair of glasses that does everything your smart phone does ... and more?

Or build your own batteries, generator, and even FM radio transmitter ... using lots of parts found in the garbage?

Why study engineering? Because you can change the world by changing people's lives!
