Engineering Fundamentals Quiz

The Latin root of the word 'engineering' is 'ingeniere', meaning to design or to devise.

Engineers use mathematics, scientific principles, and computer simulations as tools to create faster, more accurate, and more economical designs, while scientists normally emphasize the discovery of physical laws rather than apply those phenomena to develop new products.

Engineering serves as a bridge between scientific discovery and product applications, applying the theories and principles of science and mathematics to research and develop economical solutions to technical problems.
