The many flavors of engineering

| 5 Comments

Today, from Mr. Heredia, we learned about many different types of engineers. Some work with electricity, some work with machines, and some work with chemicals. Some build bridges and roads, some build airplanes, some make cars, and some make medicine. If it was manufactured, some engineer probably had a hand in making it or making it better.

If you could design something new or make a better design of something that already exists, what would you make? Why would you make it? What type of engineer(s) would have to work on the project?

  1. If I was an engineer I would invent a car controled by a video game. The car would be amazing to ride in.In the car you have a robot tha gives you any type of food you want. You would have to play a driving video game in order to drive the car. I would do this because regular driving can be boring sometimes. This car would make driving a wild adventure. That is what I would do if I was an engineer.

  2. I would make a floating car, flying shoes, and a robot that does your hair. I would make a floating car because it can go off the road and fly to your destination. I would make flying shoes because if I am in middle school or high school I can fly to my different classes and school. I would make a robot to do my hair so I don’t have to go to the barber shop and get a hair cut, instead I will get it better and for free. I would need to be an electical, mechanical, and aerospace engineer.

  3. If I can could be an engineer I would make a pencil that would write itself. I want to make this so I don’t have to do my work and homework (because I’m lazy) and it would have voice command. This would take a computer engineer and electrical engineer as well.

  4. If I were a engineer.I would make a hand & a book stand & a closet of books.So people who want to read and don’t have hands could read and enjoy it would make everybodys lives better. It would take computer engineer.

  5. If I were an engineer I would make a backpack that flies or that can detect were you go. I would make this because if you had a lot of homework, and brought home a ton of books then backpack will carry it for you and you would not have to. The type of engineer it will take to make a backpack like that is an aircraft engineer, and a computer engineer.
