Since the discovery of technology, we have united our minds for the persistence of progress to change the aspects around us for the better. It's amazing how a simple interest at the beginning can turn everything into a separate thought. History has proven that technological advancements in the field of engineering have multiplied and occurred at a faster pace over the past twenty years. So much has improved so quickly as cities grow and technology advances, engineering moves with the tide. Engineers who grow up and see their working world improve every day thanks to certain technological advances which all depend on their field. This is how engineering features have evolved to what they are today over the last two decades; and how change will continue to advance as modern technology embraces a post-modern era. Engineering has existed since the earliest times of culture and is perhaps one of the oldest branches of work on earth (the first invention of engineering dates back to ancient times). invention of the wheel).

Everyday modern technology takes over people's minds and they continue to adapt to modern changes in an ever-changing society. Over the centuries, there are traces left by ancient engineering that differ from our technology today. Throughout the ancient era, astonishing and unanswered technical feats were achieved. Like the great pyramids of Egypt and the great coliseums of Rome. The...... middle of paper......his hands dirty and a woman doesn't (a good example would be the 1950s nuclear age of the stay at home mom and 9-5 dad) . One of the biggest reasons women aren't the ones going out and doing the work is the perception of being feminine. Here's a quote that shows how much soul they take into their work. “Engineering is the professional art of applying science to the optimal conversion of natural resources for the benefit of man.” (smith)Works Cited • Scott, Henry. “Engineering Quotes.” Smart Quotes.
