My Architecture and Engineering Interests
I found this course through a recommendation by Mrs. Lewis in the library. I told her that I wanted to try out an engineering career path while I was still at school and found that your class would help me better understand what I could be doing in the future. I enrolled in this course to see what a possible profession could be like as a mechanical engineer.
My expectations are not sky high, but they are reasonable: i expect to learn the fundamentals and basics on drafting and designing different mechanisms. I also hope to better educate myself on ways that I could design one of my personal goals as a mechanical engineer. I believe that I will enjoy this course, because it interested me from the start. It continues to interest me even though it's been a few days. I am very excited to see what we will be doing later on in the year.
I would like pursue a career in engineering very much so. This may sound a bit cliche, but I have always wanted to be a hero. I want to save lives or at least make them a little better to the best of my abilities. My of my life goals, as I said before, is to create something in the mechanical engineering field that could potentially change a person's life forever for the better. I want to build prosthetics, specifically arms and hands, that not only move like a regular arm, but can feel like a regular arm as well. I want to let that amputee feel a little more human and a little less like a cyborg. I want to change their life for the better.
My favorite engineering design would either be the robotic arm created to gently wipe a mannequin's face (it is currently being developed and I do not remember those working on it). the bionic eye (it was able to send optic nerves to the brain to allow the user to see) or the prosthetic (for obvious reasons). This influences me by showing me that I'm not incapable of doing these things. If others can do it, then so can I. All I need is a little education and a license to do such things. Until then, I can use these things to motivate me.
