What is Engineering?
As
per wiki engineering is a knowledge used to design, build, maintain structures,
machines and other several processes. You will get several definitions for
engineering but the common thing in all definitions is “Designing, Building,
Maintaining”. The engineering process is mainly concentrated to solve some
problem, find some solution which improves the world around us.
What an Engineer do / Role of an
Engineer?
Engineer
important role is to study problem related information and gain knowledge about
it. Then inter relate the scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge
to design and build a solution for the problem.
As
it is not a task of one person the engineer should work in a team. Communicate
with all the members of team and share knowledge and ideas among each other
this helps to understand the problem better and also to find some key issues in
the problem.
Engineer(ing) !!! from My perspective.
“Engineering
is not only doing thing, but doing the thing very efficiently”.
According to me
engineering is not only building and designing some machines which perform some
work. But doing the thing more efficiently in all areas like cost efficient,
performance, usability, security, safety and much more.
Engineers are problem
solvers, organisers, communicators, calculators and designers. They are capable
of clearly defining a problem and its relevant constraints (such as time, cost,
etc.) and providing a simple solution.
What is Software Engineer(ing)?
One
of the field in engineering where the solutions are build in software. This can
be explained in simple words as “A software engineer is a practitioner
of software engineering. Software engineers apply the principles of engineering
to the design, development, maintenance, testing, and evaluation of the
software and systems that make computers or anything containing software work.”
