There are many diverse fields of engineering, including but not limited to: − *[[Chemical Engineering]] − *Civil Engineering − *Electrical Engineering − *[[Genetic Engineering]] − *Industrial Engineering − *Mechanical Engineering − *[[Nuclear Engineering]] − *[[Computer engineering]] − − The people who engage in engineering are typically [[college]] graduates and called [[engineer]]s. A few engineering fields, most notably civil engineering, have some sort of professional certification program, but complete certification is general achieved well into the engineer's career. − − Engineering has produced some of the most spectacular feats of taming the wild earth, such as suspension [[bridge|bridges]] to cross wide rivers and valleys, dams to control [[flood]]ing and generate [[electricity]], [[skyscraper]]s to better utilize ground space in dense cities, rockets and equipment to explore the [[solar system]], and [[computer|micro-electronics]] and large machinery to help us achieve our goals. − − == See also == − [[Image:Machine.jpg|right|170px]] − *[[Technology]] − *[[Steam power]] − *[[Wankel engine]] − *[[Engine]] − *[[Skyscraper]] − *[[Industrial revolution]] − *[[Physical Science Terms]] − {{Clear}} − − == External links == − − *[http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos027.htm Engineers] U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. − *[http://www.creatingtechnology.org/history.htm History of engineering] − *[http://www.creatingtechnology.org/history3.htm Engineering the information age] − *[http://www.cs.colorado.edu/~kena/classes/5828/s99/comments/srinivasan/01-29-1999.html An early history of software engineering] by Robert L.
