1. GIỚI THIỆU VỀ KỸ THUẬT What is engineering?
What do mechanical engineers do?
The basic engineering process
The word “engineering” derives from the Latin root
ingeniere, meaning to design or to devise, which also
forms the basis of the word “ingenious.” Those meanings
are quite appropriate summaries of the traits of a good engineer.
At the most fundamental level, engineers apply their
What is knowledge of mathematics, science, and materialswell as their skills
in communications and business—to —as engineering? develop new and better technologies.
Engineering is the profession in which knowledge of the
mathematical and natural sciences gained by study,
experience, and practice is applied with judgement to
develop ways to utilize, economically, the materials and
forces of nature for the benefit of mankind. What Engineers Do ? Build a Bridge? Make a Robot? Work on a Computer? Drive a Train? Repair Car Engines? ENGINEERS United States Department of Labor.
