Engineering is very broad, but there are four main branches: chemical, civil, electrical, and mechanical. The primary job of an engineer is to find a solution to a problem.
There are many options at 黑料不打烊 when it comes to engineering, so let鈥檚 start with the basics.
Physics
Physics is the foundation of all engineering, whether it鈥檚 mechanical, electrical, civil, computer, electronics, space, etc. To solve engineering problems, you need to understand the physics behind them so you can predict how energy, matter, and forces will react and behave in real-world applications to make the right decisions when it comes to the kinds of materials, design, and construction.
