Engineering
Engineering is applying the field of science to the effective conversion of natural resources for humanity uses. This field has been defined by the professional council of engineers in the United States as the creative application of scientific principles to develop and design structures, apparatus, machines, or manufacturing processes (Janke, Kusche, & Mader, 2020). The reason why we choose the topic is because of the importance of engineering in the world. They help in problem-solving and ensure the solution solve the conflicts and meets requirements. Engineers save the world by figuring out things and going further, and actualizing scientific discoveries and innovations. They do this by carrying out evaluations, designs, testing, modification, installation, inspections, and maintenance of several systems and products (Sundqvist, Ferry, & Kish, 2017). They also act as consultants since they recommend and specify the processes to be followed, materials to be used; they also carry out supervision of the construction or manufacture, carry out analysis of the failure rate, and mentor aspiring engineers from universities and colleges. There are many majors under engineering, for example. Mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, aerospace engineering, nuclear engineering, structural engineering, structural engineering, chemical engineering, and computer engineering. In our paper, we will look into two specific engineering types; electrical engineering and computer engineering. Electrical engineering is designing, manufacturing, testing, controlling, constructing, inspecting, and monitoring electronic devices and electrical gadgets, systems, and machinery (Lai et al., 2019). The systems vary in size and scale from small microscopic circuits to big national power grid and generation and transmission systems. The second engineering type is computer engineering. In this field, the person practices the design of computer systems, computer hardware, computer software, and networks.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the project will look into the engineering world, specifically electrical and computer engineering. Engineering has revolutionized the way people live by actualizing scientific innovations and inventions. The project will help us look into how engineers have seen significant innovations in being through the application of physics, mathematics, and computer software, for instance, simulations and computer-aided designs. To be specific, we are interested in electrical engineers and computer engineers. The electrical engineering field is essential in the development of electrical and electronic gadgets. We will ensure that the process used in designing, testing, manufacturing, construction, controlling, monitoring, and inspection of the gadgets is understood through this project. The project will also ensure that the reader understands the application of electrical engineering in real-life aspects. The second is to look at will be computer engineering. This engineering field helps in the designing of computer components, for example, computer hardware, computer systems, computer software, and network. The readers will understand the actualization process of some of the great computer gadgets and technology. The projects will also look at the drawbacks and help use coming up with electrical and computer engineers’ problems. Lastly, the project will be used to establish areas of development.
