HISTORY AND FUTURE OF
ENGINEERING
INTROGETTING TO KNOW WHAT ENGINEERING IS
“Engineering for a
changing world”
INTRO GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARY
INTRO
GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARY
- Engineering is the creative application of science,
mathematical methods, and empirical evidence to the
innovation, design, construction, and maintenance of
structures, machines, materials, devices, systems, processes,
and organizations.
INTRO
GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARY
The term engineering is derived from the word engineer,
which itself dates back to 1390 when an engine’er (literally, one
who operates an engine) referred to “a constructor of military
engines.” In this context, now obsolete, an “engine” referred to
a military machine, i.e., a mechanical contraption used in war
(for example, a catapult).
INTRO
GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARY
The word “engine” itself is of even older origin, ultimately
deriving from the Latin ingenium, and meaning “innate
quality, especially mental power, hence a clever invention.”
INTRO
GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARY
Later, as the design of civilian structures, such as bridges and
buildings, matured as a technical discipline, the term civil
engineering entered the lexicon as a way to distinguish
between those specializing in the construction of such non-
military projects and those involved in the discipline of
military engineering
GETTING TO KNOW THE LEGENDARYPAST DAYS OF
ENGINEERING
Existed since ancient times, when humans devised inventions
such as wedge, lever, wheel and pulley. Change from nomadic
life (hunter - gatherers)
The Agrarian Society (agriculture)
forms the basis of civilization
cultivate plants - the need for increased food production
domesticate animals - for food and work
build permanent houses in community group
THE FIRST
ENGINEERS
BABYLONIAN ENGINEERS
>Familiar with basic arithmetic and algebra computing areas and volumes of land
excavations
>Number system based on 60 instead of 10
>Buildings were constructed using basic engineering principles still used today
>Primitive arches used in hydraulic works
>Bridges were built with stone piers carrying wooden stringers
>Roads were surfaced with a naturally occurring asphalt, a construction system not
used again until the nineteenth century
EGYPTIAN ENGINEERS
>Pyramid Age - 2900 B.C and lasts 1000 years
>2,300,000 building stones (2.5 tons each) used to
build the Great >Pyramid of Cheops
>Outstanding examples of engineering skills in land
measurement and building layout -transit and level
>Irrigation system
ENGINEERING IN GREECE
>Had its origin in Egypt
>Better known for the intensive development of borrowed ideas
than for creativity and invention
>Use of ideas was retarded because of the belief that
verification and experimentation, which required manual labor,
were only fit for slaves.
>Archimedes water screw
>Crossbow
>Catapult
ROMAN ENGINEERING
>Liberally borrowed scientific and engineering knowledge from the
conquered countries for use in warfare and in their public works
>Superior in the application of ideas and techniques
>Hero’s Inventions:
>Gear driven odometer on chariot
>Steam turbine
>Hydraulic clock
>Fire engine
>Aqueducts for water supply
> Sanitary systems
>Engineering principles applies to military tactics
These are how engineering started in the past. After the
specializations of each race, comes up the real engineers with their
titles.
According to Stephen Mraz (2009). One move engineers
took back in the mid-1800s to increase their stature in society was to
form professional organizations. Eventually this grew into the
Professional Engineers license in the early to mid-1900s, a way to
ensure only those educated and trained in orthodox engineering
could call themselves engineers. “It was a way to regulate the
profession and to give more respect to real engineers”, says Mraz.

Engineering has contributed immensely towards the
development of infrastructure that is crucial to the
sustenance of our civilization. Proper knowledge of
civil engineering has not only enabled us to build
bridges, dams, tunnels, expressways but also figure
out a way to effectively handle traffic congestions,
disasters, and other unfavorable circumstances.

When we talk about the progress in medical science, the image
of a biologist or a highly-qualified doctor comes to our mind.
But, you will be surprised to know that engineering and
medical science goes hand in hand with each other to improve
the quality of healthcare. From MRI machines to X-rays and
pacemakers to Glucose Level Monitors - engineering has
contributed more to medical science than we can fathom.

Development and deployment of systems that provide
drinking water, that is safe for human consumption is one of
the major contributions of environmental engineering.
Moreover, we also need a mechanism that can reduce
pollution and clean up contaminated water bodies, land, and
sustain our crops and livestock. Thankfully, the pioneers in
environmental engineering are tackling these issues by
coming up with new and innovative solutions to minimize
pollution making our industrial processes environment-
friendly.
