12 Women in Engineering
13 Women in Engineering Data from National Science Foundation
14 Women in Engineering Data from National Science Foundation
15 What do engineers do? Use math and science knowledge Find innovative ways to solve problems Design new products and technology Scientific Discovery Everyday Application
16 Types of Work Consulting Design Development Teaching Manufacturing Testing Modelling Planning Production Research Sales Prototyping Maintenance Analysis
17 Mechanical Engineering Work on machines that produce power Work on machines that use energy Design tools for other engineers
18 Chemical Engineering Use knowledge of chemistry to make useful products Design efficient processes
19 Computer Engineering Work on computer hardware like chips, circuit boards, and keyboards Work on software that make computers useful
20 Biological Engineering Use biological systems to create new technology Work on medicine, food engineering environment and agriculture
21 Other Engineering Fields Aerospace Health and safety Architecture Materials Biomedical Nuclear Civil Agricultural Electrical Mining and geological Environmental Marine/Ocean Industrial
22 Benefits of being an Engineer Challenging/stimulating Impact on society Useful skills applicable to other jobs Developing new products Good pay
23 Activity!
24 Activity! Challenge: Build a boat that will carry a mousetrap across a body of water Categories to be judged: Fastest time Carries the most weight Straightest path Most stable Uses the least material
25 Activity! Phases: Brainstorm/design Building Trial run Redesigning/building Competition
26 Should I become an engineer? Do you wonder how things work?
27 Should I become an engineer? Do you wonder how things work? Do you wonder why things are the way they are?
28 Should I become an engineer? Do you wonder how things work? Do you wonder why things are the way they are? Do you suggest new ideas or ways of solving problems that arise?
29 Should I become an engineer? Do you wonder how things work? Do you wonder why things are the way they are? Do you suggest new ideas or ways of solving problems that arise? Do you think of ways to improve current things?
30 Should I become an engineer? Do you wonder how things work? Do you wonder why things are the way they are? Do you suggest new ideas or ways of solving problems that arise? Do you think of ways to improve current things? Do you picture situations and analyze all the steps?
31 Preparing for Engineering Strong academic record Challenging courses Improvement over time Classes Typically up to trigonometry and pre-calculus Calculus and AP Calculus recommended Biology, physics, chemistry Four years of English (engineers need to know how to communicate as well!)
32 Preparing for Engineering Extracurricular activities Time management Long-term commitments Contributions to student body or society Summer Programs Explore fields of interest Do an internship Look ahead! Research colleges that offer engineering programs
33 Programs in Kentucky UK BEST Mathcounts CyberCave Academy Kentucky Science and Engineering Fair (finalists go on to the national Intel International Science and Engineering Fair)
34 Nationwide Programs FIRST Robotics Competition: high school teams design and build robots Siemens Competition in Math, Science, and Technology: yearly competition that recognizes high school students for their research projects NASA SHARP: 8-week summer internship at various NASA sites
