1 Chemical Food Pyrotechnic Metallurgic Mechanical Sports Electrical Music Machine Learner Civil Skatepark Interdisciplinary Entertainment Military Computer Landscape Aerospace Optomechanical Control Preservation Agricultural Textile Thermal Software Traffic Biomedical Chemical Food Pyrotechnic Metallurgic Textile Provide information on cost-effective ways to transport and package food Test different ingredients for food products including drugs (pharmaceutical) Design ways that foods/drugs are produced in the production stage Packaging of foods/drugs Food/drug ingredients Work with explosives and reactive chemicals to organize displays of fire and fireworks Done for sport arenas, concert venues or special effects in movies/television Stage at your school or community Television show that has explosives! The study of physical and chemical behaviour of metallic elements in order to decide what best material to use for different products and construction Concerned with the production of metallic products for the consumer including the shaping of the metal Any building that used metals to construct Toys or materials made by with metal Concerned with anything created with fabric including designing new processes or procedures in producing the fabric They create and design new types of fabrics using research Any fabrics including furniture, clothing, flooring (carpet) 1

2 Mechanical Sports Technical application of math and physics to solve sporting problems Includes designing equipment, building facilities, analyzing athlete performance, regulating standards, ensuring safety requirements are met An athlete! Sporting equipment and sporting arenas (hockey rinks, basketball court etc ) Military Design and build the military works and maintaining lines of military transport and communications They serve to protect the military which includes force protection, counter-improvised explosive devices, environmental protection, engineer intelligence Students in Cadets Any type of military communication devices for older students, the movie The Hurt Locker about disarming bombs Optomechanical Study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation (photons) with mechanical systems (optical devices) The design and creation of optical parts and devices Mirror mounts, optical mounts, a computer mouse, binoculars, microscopes, telescopes Study of energy transport, including thermal energy (heat), and converting this energy into usable energy for mechanical, chemical, or electrical energy for use Thermal Cooling of computer chips Solar heating, solar panels for solar energy / solar electricity Air Conditioning systems, HVAC applications 2

3 Electrical Music Machine Learner Research and design Artificial Intelligence techniques to support operating systems in technology, specifically for music programs This includes creating personalized ads depending on what music the user listens to and inventing new audio formats to listen to music Music apps Spotify, SoundCloud DJs making music with technology and machine learning technniques Computer Develops computer hardware and software including making processors of computers more efficient Software they design operating systems for computers (think MAC OS X, Windows 10, Linux etc ) Opening up a computer hardware to look at the motherboard and processors Operating systems on your school s computers What type of operating system does your school s laptops and computers use? Control Applies automatic control theory to design systems to behave a certain way automatically (systems designed to perform without requiring human input are called automatic control systems) Vehicles with cruise control options (cars, airplanes, etc ) Control of your heating system at school (a thermostat) Does a lot of programming to improve or create software programs for computers (including applications on mobile devices) Software Every single app on your mobile device Your school s IT department 3

4 Civil Skatepark Uses knowledge of physics and engineering structures to design and build skateparks Your local skatepark! Design outdoor spaces that are useful, attractive and ecofriendly The combine aesthetics with functionality Landscape Parks, your school playground, campuses, residential neighbourhoods, shopping centres, golf courses They also restore wetlands and forests Preservation They seek to preserve, conserve, and protect buildings, objects, landscapes or other artifacts of historical significance Preservation engineers also aim to retain historical values and extend their physical lives Artifacts in museums Historical places (perhaps your community s Mainstreet will have many historical buildings) Traffic Uses engineering techniques to achieve the safe and efficient movement of people and goods on roadways They design and research on ways to have safe and efficient travel flow Roads, traffic lights, walkways, cycling infrastructure, road surface markings 4

5 Interdisciplinary Entertainment They create mechanical and structural systems for scenic and entertainment staging, theatrical facilities, theme parks, and all kinds of performances The entertainment portion can also include lighting (lighting engineer) Stages at your school, your local theatre or concert space Aerospace Concerned with the development of aircrafts and spacecraft Your nearest airport with airplanes NASA or any places with spacecrafts as well Agricultural Design agricultural machinery, equipment and structures They also research agricultural resource management such as land use and water use farms, food production facilities, your Municipal agricultural department Biomedical Combine engineering principles with medical and biological sciences to design devices, computer systems, and software used in healthcare Prosthetics, machinery in your nurse s office, artificial internal organs 5
