Types of Engineers A-Z

2. Research and develop the processes, instruments, and systems used to derive benefits from nuclear energy and radiation for industrial and medical use.
5. Combine aspects of mechanical, electronics, robotics and computer engineering in order to increase efficiency in the production and function of manufactured goods.
8. Use computer science, mathematics, and engineering to design, develop, test, and maintain software or computer systems.
9. Design, build, supervise, operate and maintain construction projects and systems, including roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
11. Develop, design, process, and test materials to create new materials, products and structures using chemistry and physics.
12. Use genetics to develop organisms better suited to meet environmental challenges and suit the needs of modern medicine.

1. Apply and develop solutions to several environmental issues and problems by using the principles of engineering, biology, chemistry, and soil science. Address global issues, like climate change, sustainability, and drinking water safety, as well as public health issues and means of controlling pollution.
3. Design and improve agricultural practices as well as farming equipment and machinery.
4. Research, design, develop, test, or supervise the manufacturing and installation of electronic equipment, components, or systems. Work with many products and systems from cars, robots, generators, communications and navigation systems.
6. Apply the engineering principles of chemistry to develop, identify, and evaluate the safest and most efficient means of producing food, drugs, chemicals, fuel, and other materials.
7. Combine engineering principles with medical and biological sciences to design and create equipment, devices, computer systems, artificial organs and software used in healthcare.
10. Find the most efficient and profitable means of extracting oil and gas from rock formations far below the earth.
