👉 Engineering, particularly in the context of applied or mechanical engineering, is the systematic application of scientific and mathematical principles to design, develop, and optimize systems, structures, and processes. It involves problem-solving through the design and analysis of practical solutions to real-world challenges, utilizing tools such as computer-aided design (CAD), finite element analysis (FEA), and simulation software. Engineers apply knowledge from various disciplines, including physics, mathematics, materials science, and chemistry, to create safe, efficient, and innovative products and systems that meet specific needs and standards. This field emphasizes not only technical expertise but also creativity, critical thinking, and a commitment to sustainability and safety in all aspects of engineering work.
