Why is Engineering Essential For Our Lives?

By: Alex Vu

When you look around almost everything you see, was created or handled by an engineer to better our daily lives.   Without the field of engineering,  we wouldn't be able to travel,  keep up with our daily hygiene issues, or wouldn't have things to keep up with our own entertainment.  One thing that humans use the most in their lives is either their phone or computer, which was created by mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering.  Personally, I use my phone and headphones the most in my daily life. To really understand how engineering affects our daily lives, I searched around for the communities opinion.

~One girl said that engineering relates to everything we do in our lives, "This includes everything from the toothpaste you use in the morning, to your iPhones, facebook apps, medical devices, transport, energy, defence, buildings and every thing in your homes, schools, hospitals"  Source: here

~Another person I found says the first thing engineers do before creating products to better our lives is that they go through this process that ultimately repeats itself.

~Finally, the last example someone explains that engineering is a necessity rather than a desire. Because nowadays the human culture is so technology driven, and if engineering was not always there for us, we would not be able to meet the demands for technology and the human race would fail.  :Technology driven culture
