'''Engineering''' is the an ancient discipline of using [[science]] and [[Mathematics]] to design or make things. The individuals who practice engineering are called [[engineer]]s. They learn the discipline tyipcally at a [[college]] or [[university]]. Engineers usually [[design]] or build things. Some engineers also use their skills to solve technical problems. There are different types of engineers that design everything from [[computers]] and [[buildings]] to watches and websites.

== Study ==
Most engineers have had years of training. Much of their training involves working within a limited [[budget]] and materials.

=== American courses ===
In the [[United States]], most engineers go to a college or university to get an engineering degree. Most people go to school for four years to get a bachelor's degree in engineering. A Master's Degree is an advanced degree, usually requiring two more years of study after the Bachelors. A person with a master's degree is eligible to enter a Doctoral program in engineering. A graduate of a Doctoral program is awarded a [[Doctor of Philosophy]] degree, which is commonly called a PhD. A PhD in engineering requires three or four years of study after a master's degree, and includes the completion of a long research report called a dissertation. After having gained enough work experience, one can sit for their Professional Engineer's (PE) License, reinforcing their demonstrated proficiency in their specialty.

=== British courses ===
In the [[United Kingdom]], engineering degrees at universities are either three year BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or four year MEng (Master of Engineering). In many universities it is common to take only one engineering discipline (e.g. aeronautical or civil engineering) although some universities have a general engineering degree. British universities may also offer Doctoral programs as a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or a doctor of engineering (EngD). Engineers of all disciplines have common approaches to solving problems including teamwork, communication, and an Iterative design process.

Engineers can also get additional recognition in the form of becoming Chartered. A chartered engineer is one who has his degree or doctorate has been recognised by a group of professionals such as the IET (Institute of Engineering and Technology), IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers), IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) or ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers). Experience and responsibility enables a further step of recognition by becoming a Fellow of these institutions.

=== French courses ===
The best way to become an engineer in France is to take the CPGE (Classe Préparatoire pour les [[Grande école|Grandes Écoles]] is the French class for engineer's school) for two years and then study for three years in an "École d'Ingénieur" (Engineer's school).<ref>https://www.aacrao.org/docs/default-source/edge/white-paper-on-grandes-ecoles.pdf</ref> You can also study in an IUT (Institut universitaire technologique) for two years, and then study three years in an "École d'Ingénieur".

[[File:Windmills D1-D4 - Thornton Bank.jpg|thumb| Engineers from different fields worked together to make [[wind turbine]]s at sea]]
'''Engineering''' is the an ancient discipline of using [[science]] and [[Mathematics]] to design or make things. The individuals who practice engineering are called [[engineer]]s. They learn the discipline tyipcally at a [[college]] or [[university]]. Engineers usually [[design]] or build things. Some engineers also use their skills to solve technical problems. There are different types of engineers that design everything from [[computers]] and [[buildings]] to watches and websites.

== Study ==
Most engineers have had years of training. Much of their training involves working within a limited [[budget]] and materials.

=== American courses ===
In the [[United States]], most engineers go to a college or university to get an engineering degree. Most people go to school for four years to get a bachelor's degree in engineering. A Master's Degree is an advanced degree, usually requiring two more years of study after the Bachelors. A person with a master's degree is eligible to enter a Doctoral program in engineering. A graduate of a Doctoral program is awarded a [[Doctor of Philosophy]] degree, which is commonly called a PhD. A PhD in engineering requires three or four years of study after a master's degree, and includes the completion of a long research report called a dissertation. After having gained enough work experience, one can sit for their Professional Engineer's (PE) License, reinforcing their demonstrated proficiency in their specialty.

=== British courses ===
In the [[United Kingdom]], engineering degrees at universities are either three year BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or four year MEng (Master of Engineering). In many universities it is common to take only one engineering discipline (e.g. aeronautical or civil engineering) although some universities have a general engineering degree. British universities may also offer Doctoral programs as a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or a doctor of engineering (EngD). Engineers of all disciplines have common approaches to solving problems including teamwork, communication, and an Iterative design process.

Engineers can also get additional recognition in the form of becoming Chartered. A chartered engineer is one who has his degree or doctorate has been recognised by a group of professionals such as the IET (Institute of Engineering and Technology), IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers), IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) or ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers). Experience and responsibility enables a further step of recognition by becoming a Fellow of these institutions.

=== French courses ===
The best way to become an engineer in France is to take the CPGE (Classe Préparatoire pour les [[Grande école|Grandes Écoles]] is the French class for engineer's school) for two years and then study for three years in an "École d'Ingénieur" (Engineer's school).<ref>https://www.aacrao.org/docs/default-source/edge/white-paper-on-grandes-ecoles.pdf</ref> You can also study in an IUT (Institut universitaire technologique) for two years, and then study three years in an "École d'Ingénieur".

'''Engineering''' is the an ancient discipline of using [[science]] and [[Mathematics]] to design or make things. The individuals who practice engineering are called [[engineer]]s. They learn the discipline tyipcally at a [[college]] or [[university]]. Engineers usually [[design]] or build things. Some engineers also use their skills to solve technical problems. There are different types of engineers that design everything from [[computers]] and [[buildings]] to watches and websites.

== Study ==
Most engineers have had years of training. Much of their training involves working within a limited [[budget]] and materials.

=== American courses ===
In the [[United States]], most engineers go to a college or university to get an engineering degree. Most people go to school for four years to get a bachelor's degree in engineering. A Master's Degree is an advanced degree, usually requiring two more years of study after the Bachelors. A person with a master's degree is eligible to enter a Doctoral program in engineering. A graduate of a Doctoral program is awarded a [[Doctor of Philosophy]] degree, which is commonly called a PhD. A PhD in engineering requires three or four years of study after a master's degree, and includes the completion of a long research report called a dissertation. After having gained enough work experience, one can sit for their Professional Engineer's (PE) License, reinforcing their demonstrated proficiency in their specialty.

=== British courses ===
In the [[United Kingdom]], engineering degrees at universities are either three year BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or four year MEng (Master of Engineering). In many universities it is common to take only one engineering discipline (e.g. aeronautical or civil engineering) although some universities have a general engineering degree. British universities may also offer Doctoral programs as a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or a doctor of engineering (EngD). Engineers of all disciplines have common approaches to solving problems including teamwork, communication, and an Iterative design process.

Engineers can also get additional recognition in the form of becoming Chartered. A chartered engineer is one who has his degree or doctorate has been recognised by a group of professionals such as the IET (Institute of Engineering and Technology), IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers), IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) or ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers). Experience and responsibility enables a further step of recognition by becoming a Fellow of these institutions.

=== French courses ===
The best way to become an engineer in France is to take the CPGE (Classe Préparatoire pour les [[Grande école|Grandes Écoles]] is the French class for engineer's school) for two years and then study for three years in an "École d'Ingénieur" (Engineer's school).<ref>https://www.aacrao.org/docs/default-source/edge/white-paper-on-grandes-ecoles.pdf</ref> You can also study in an IUT (Institut universitaire technologique) for two years, and then study three years in an "École d'Ingénieur".

Most engineers have had years of training. Much of their training involves working within a limited [[budget]] and materials.

=== American courses ===
In the [[United States]], most engineers go to a college or university to get an engineering degree. Most people go to school for four years to get a bachelor's degree in engineering. A Master's Degree is an advanced degree, usually requiring two more years of study after the Bachelors. A person with a master's degree is eligible to enter a Doctoral program in engineering. A graduate of a Doctoral program is awarded a [[Doctor of Philosophy]] degree, which is commonly called a PhD. A PhD in engineering requires three or four years of study after a master's degree, and includes the completion of a long research report called a dissertation. After having gained enough work experience, one can sit for their Professional Engineer's (PE) License, reinforcing their demonstrated proficiency in their specialty.

=== British courses ===
In the [[United Kingdom]], engineering degrees at universities are either three year BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or four year MEng (Master of Engineering). In many universities it is common to take only one engineering discipline (e.g. aeronautical or civil engineering) although some universities have a general engineering degree. British universities may also offer Doctoral programs as a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or a doctor of engineering (EngD). Engineers of all disciplines have common approaches to solving problems including teamwork, communication, and an Iterative design process.

Engineers can also get additional recognition in the form of becoming Chartered. A chartered engineer is one who has his degree or doctorate has been recognised by a group of professionals such as the IET (Institute of Engineering and Technology), IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers), IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) or ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers). Experience and responsibility enables a further step of recognition by becoming a Fellow of these institutions.

=== French courses ===
The best way to become an engineer in France is to take the CPGE (Classe Préparatoire pour les [[Grande école|Grandes Écoles]] is the French class for engineer's school) for two years and then study for three years in an "École d'Ingénieur" (Engineer's school).<ref>https://www.aacrao.org/docs/default-source/edge/white-paper-on-grandes-ecoles.pdf</ref> You can also study in an IUT (Institut universitaire technologique) for two years, and then study three years in an "École d'Ingénieur".

Engineers do not only work with machines. They also work a lot with other people.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.niee.org/nafta.html |title=Principles of Ethical conduct in Engineering Practice Under The North American Free Trade Agreement |access-date=2011-03-04 |archive-date=2010-07-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100730044651/http://www.niee.org/nafta.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> Many engineering projects are large and very complicated. Often [[Interdisciplinarity|different kinds]] of engineers work together and help each other. As an example, computer engineers need help from electrical engineers to build a computer. The computer needs programs written by software engineers. The computer could be used by aerospace engineers to control an airplane. An airplane is a big mechanical system with many parts, so a mechanical engineer and a systems engineer are also needed.

== Study ==
Most (but not all) engineers have had years of training. Much of their training involves working within a limited [[budget]] and materials.

=== American courses ===
In the [[United States]], most engineers go to a college or university to get an engineering degree. Most people go to school for four years to get a bachelor's degree in engineering. A Master's Degree is an advanced degree, usually requiring two more years of study after the Bachelors. A person with a master's degree is eligible to enter a Doctoral program in engineering. A graduate of a Doctoral program is awarded a [[Doctor of Philosophy]] degree, which is commonly called a PhD. A PhD in engineering requires three or four years of study after a master's degree, and includes the completion of a long research report called a dissertation. After having gained enough work experience, one can sit for their Professional Engineer's (PE) License, reinforcing their demonstrated proficiency in their specialty.

=== British courses ===
In the [[United Kingdom]], engineering degrees at universities are either three year BEng (Bachelor of Engineering) or four year MEng (Master of Engineering). In many universities it is common to take only one engineering discipline (e.g. aeronautical or civil engineering) although some universities have a general engineering degree. British universities may also offer Doctoral programs as a doctor of philosophy (PhD) or a doctor of engineering (EngD). Engineers of all disciplines have common approaches to solving problems including teamwork, communication, and an Iterative design process.

Engineers can also get additional recognition in the form of becoming Chartered. A chartered engineer is one who has his degree or doctorate has been recognised by a group of professionals such as the IET (Institute of Engineering and Technology), IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers), IChemE (Institution of Chemical Engineers) or ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers). Experience and responsibility enables a further step of recognition by becoming a Fellow of these institutions.

=== French courses ===
The best way to become an engineer in France is to take the CPGE (Classe Préparatoire pour les [[Grande école|Grandes Écoles]] is the French class for engineer's school) for two years and then study for three years in an "École d'Ingénieur" (Engineer's school).
You can also study in an IUT (Institut universitaire technologique) for two years, and then study three years in an "École d'Ingénieur".

'''Engineering''' is the use of [[science]] and [[Mathematics]] to design or make things. People who do engineering are called [[engineer]]s. They learn engineering at a [[college]] or [[university]]. Engineers usually [[design]] or build things. Some engineers also use their skills to solve technical problems. There are different types of engineers that design everything from [[computers]] and [[buildings]] to watches and websites. People have been engineering things for thousands of years.

== What is it? ==
Engineering is a big subject. Here are a few of the many types of engineers:

* [[aerospace engineering|Aerospace engineers]] design space vehicles or airplanes.
* [[biomedical engineering|Biomedical engineers]] design and work with medical equipment.
* [[chemical engineering|Chemical engineers]] use chemicals to make products like drugs and medicines or fertilizers for crops.
* [[civil engineering|Civil engineers]] work on roads, bridges, buildings and other public structures.
* [[computer engineering|Computer engineers]] design or improve computers (including [[embedded system]]s and their parts).
