It is undeniable that engineering has accompanied man practically since


its beginnings, and thanks to her, feats that were considered have been achieved
impossible for humanity, like the ability for a person to connect
to the internet network from anywhere on the surface of the planet only
using a laptop or a satellite phone to keep in touch
communications at all times, the possibility of allowing us to explore beyond
the Earth's orbit, to build enormous structures or transport routes, has also
facilitated the process of creating automatic and semi-automatic machines
capable of maintaining high production with very little human assistance, or
countless advances in medical science. All of this meaning an improvement
substantial in the lives of people and society, but what is really the
engineering? It is an activity or profession that allows the correct use of
the scientific and mathematical knowledge acquired through study, the
practice, experience, and the use of judgment to develop solutions to problems
technical, social, or commercial. Engineering could be considered the link
between science and art, because it relies so much on the creative part to
design ideas, such as in the logical part to apply their scientific knowledge to
his creative proposals.

The people who have received vocational training in this discipline, and apply
Those who adapt their knowledge and skills in their field of work are known as
as Engineers. An engineer is someone whose way of thinking is compatible
with logic and abstract concepts, but at the same time is dynamic,
practical and creative, moreover, she is a person with the ability to work in

seeks to consider ways to improve efficiency in systems and processes, are
suitable for taking on leadership and possess skills in mathematical abilities.

An engineer is responsible for participating in problem-solving, planning,

labor, the process of maintenance and management to optimize productivity,
offer services, tools, products, and manage IT projects.

Engineering is different from science. Science is concerned with proving


the validity of their theories; while engineering is pleased to demonstrate
the usefulness of their creations. In science, when a particular topic leads
to different hypotheses, it is important to use all available means to go
discarding until only one option remains. In the case of engineers, if they
they have several ideas worth working on all of them because this way
you have the opportunity to create an excellent design. In science, exploration

Whereas in the case of engineering an independent person really does not

various industries in this area.

It goes without saying that engineering has a wide variety of branches,


all deeply related to meeting people's needs.
Among them, the most notable may be: Civil engineering, responsible for

design and specification of components or entire systems. Engineering

energy distribution, manufacturing of electrical equipment, and installations

networks and electrical installations in general. The chemical engineering that studies the
application, the development and operation of manufacturing processes in which,
through changes in the composition and physical characteristics of the
Materials create goods, products, and industrial and commercial services.
combining in the process natural and experimental sciences with sciences of
biological character. Industrial engineering, responsible for planning and
quality management, the production of industrial plants, and the establishment of
objectives. And finally, electronic engineering, whose field of action is the
electrical systems with an emphasis on the handling of electrical and acoustic signals,
optical and electromagnetic used in measurement and control functions,
communications and computer science.

Of all the degrees I had available to study, engineering was the


which I found more interesting and suited me, since I have some
fascination with mathematics and physics.

At first, I was going to choose to study mechanical engineering, but I decided to lean towards
to study the field of Mechanical Maintenance Engineering due to its high employment rate and
the fact that I was more interested in things related to supervision,
management, optimization, conservation, repair, and restoration of equipment and
mechanical systems.
I envision myself in the future as a responsible Engineer with my work, someone
competent and collaborative with my colleagues. I do not have a fixed projection
about the industry in which I would like to develop, I would be pleased to use my
future knowledge in the automotive industry or in maintenance of
autonomous machines, but it's not something I stop to think about for now.

Finally, it is necessary to clarify that all sciences rely on engineering.


since it facilitates the process for them to innovate with new technological advances
in the fastest and safest way possible; as well as at the same time all the
Branches of engineering rely on science to be able to develop better
systems that facilitate production. The number of branches that exist in the
engineering is vast, but they all have in common that you seek
complement each other. In addition, engineering is deeply rooted in the
human behavior to seek to optimize tools, products and
systems that we use in our daily lives, their impact is so great that it was
main cause and driver of important events and movements that
marked a before and after in the history of humanity, like the
industrial revolution or the space race.
