What different types of engineering are there and what are they?


           -Applied Engineering: Combines business with engineering where students choose a concentration in one of the following: Business Law, Computer Science, Packaging, Supply Chain Management, Technical Sales, or Telecommunications.

           -Biosystems Engineering: Combines biology with engineering making sure there is safe and enough food, pure water, clean energy sources, and a safe environment to live in where students choose a concentration in one of the following: Bioenergy Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Ecosystems Engineering, Food Engineering

           -Chemical Engineering: Combines chemistry with engineering working in research and development, design and construction, environmental and waste management, or in the operation of process plants. There are a lot of concentration in chemical engineering such as biochemical, bioenergy, biomedical, environmental, food science, and Polymer Science..

           -Civil Engineering: Work with construction and building things such as transportation systems, environmental protection systems, and planning and designing how water resources work. Many tracks can be chosen in this major such as environmental,  geotechnical, pavement, structures, transportation, water resources, general, and construction.

           -Computer and Electrical Engineering: Design things such as hi-tech video games, remote control cars, cellular phones, caller Ids, pagers, microwaves, cable TV, satellites, emails, the World Wide Web, and fax machines to name a few recent innovations. An available concentration is biomedical engineering.

           -Computer Science: Combines knowledge about anything computer related with engineering.

           -Electrical Engineering: Combine engineering with anything electrical such as the electrical equipement of motors, aircrafts, lighting in buildings, etc. There are many different electives that can be taken relating to different things such as robotics or biomedical.

           -Environmental Engineering: Combine engineering with biology and chemistry to solve environmental issues. There are a couple different tracks such as geo-environmental, hydraulics, and just a general track.

           -Material Science and Engineering: Use raw materials from the Earth to create every day things like computers, dishes, or athletic equipment. Concentrations in this field include biomedical, manufacturing, metallurgical, and polymeric.
           -Mechanical Engineering: The most popular engineering degree, they come up with things varying from combustion engines, space crafts, power systems, or artificial limbs.
