- Mechanical engineers design and develop everything from wheelchairs to solar collectors to refrigerators.
- Electrical engineers develop the systems that move energy and information. Anything you plug in likely had an electrical engineer involved.
- Civil-environmental engineers plan buildings, bridges, roads, and other structures. They also design systems to clean the air and manage our water resources.
- Computer engineers design computer systems from micro-circuit to software code. They work to ensure that the everyday electronic devices we use are both safe and efficient.
- Biomedical engineers create the technology we use to heal our bodies, from medical instruments to artificial organs and prosthetic devices.
