Engineering is the application of scientific principles and advanced problem solving to create solutions to human needs. There many diverse fields of engineering, including but not limited to:

The people who engage in engineering are (typically) college graduates with professional certifications, called "engineers".

Engineering has produced some of the most spectacular feats of taming the wild earth, such as suspension bridges to cross wide rivers and valleys, dams to control flooding and generate electricity, skyscrapers to better utilize ground space in dense cities, rockets and equipment to explore the solar system, and micro-electronics and large machinery to help us achieve our goals.
