when people live in house, drive cars, fly jet, walk, eat, i wonder if the imagin how this things have come to being, i wonder why people study other subject outside engineering and technology. all we need is sience, and that is engineering any other thing brings man"s trouble

Good choice Two engineering students were walking across campus when one said, "Where did you get such a great bike?" The second engineer replied, "Well, I was walking along yesterday minding my own business when a beautiful woman rode up on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want." The first engineer nodded approvingly, "Good choice; the clothes probably wouldn't have fit." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overcapacity To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the dark A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude." The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens-keeper. Let's have a word with him." [dramatic pause] "Hi George. Say, what's with that group ahead of us?! They're rather slow, aren't they?" The greens-keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group was silent for a moment. The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

that is so true people living inthis world truely should worship all the scientist and engineers and doctors who make their lives so simple and luxurious but the people pay more attention and money to filmstars and all thise kind of people what they provide is nothing in front of what the doctors that provide them with cure for their sickness but they dont realize it

I doubt many do, we're living in a very ungrateful world to some extent, although there's no question on what engineering has done for man kind.

Methodology The crucial and unique task of the engineer is to identify, understand, and integrate the constraints on a design in order to produce a successful result. It is usually not enough to build a technically successful product; it must also meet further requirements. Constraints may include available resources, physical or technical limitations, flexibility for future modifications and additions, and other factors, such as requirements for cost, marketability, producibility, and serviceability. By understanding the constraints, engineers derive specifications for the limits within which a viable object or system may be produced and operated.

Engineering is the application of scientific and mathematical principles to develop economical solutions to technical problems, creating products, facilities, and structures that are useful to people.[1][2] Engineers use imagination, judgment, and reasoning to apply science, technology, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of useful objects or processes.
