Engineering is a profession. Its members work closely with scientists
and apply new and old scientific effects to produce products and
services that people want. Engineers do creative work. They are skilled in
the art of inventing new ways of using the forces of nature to do useful
things. Scientists strive to understand nature while engineers aim to
produce useful products subject to economic and societal constraints.
Engineers deal with reality and usually have a set of specific problems
that must be solved to achieve a goal. If a particular problem is
unusually difficult, it may have to be solved approximately within the time
and cost limitations under which the engineer operates.
Engineering problems usually have more than one solution. It is the
aim of the engineer to obtain the best solution possible with the resources
available. A criterion for measuring the degree of success of a solution is
usually adopted and an attempt is made to optimize the solution relative to
this criterion. The engineer rarely achieves the best solution the first time;
a design may have to be iterated several times.
Engineers are professionally responsible for the safety and performance
of their designs. The objective is to solve a given problem with the
simplest, safest, most efficient design possible, at the lowest cost.
