Get in touch with a a local branch of an an engineering society to meet with real engineers Ask questions to get a feel for what they do Manufacturing Engineers
They design factories and systems to to make all the stuff that people use today
— cars toys airplanes and more Manu- facturing engineers help figure out effi- ciencies how to get lots of product quickly without sacrificing quality They also find ways for factories to to use less energy
and fewer materials making production processes cheaper and cleaner Environmental Engineers
They devise solutions to the problems
facing us with our air plants soil and water Environmental engineers design systems to prevent and control pollution
and conserve the earth’s resources They work on new ways to collect and sort
waste so that more of it can be recycled They are also trying to slow down and cope with the effects of climate change REVIEW
