Biomedical engineering has only recently emerged as its own discipline, compared to many other engineering fields.

Neural engineering ( also known as Neuroengineering ) is a discipline that uses engineering techniques to understand, repair, replace, or enhance neural systems.

As noted above, biomedical engineering has only recently been emerging as its own discipline rather than a cross-disciplinary hybrid specialization of other disciplines ; and BME programs at all levels are becoming more widespread, including the Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering which actually includes so much biological science content that many students use it as a " pre-med " major in preparation for medical school.

and Ph. D. programs will typically require applicants to have an undergraduate degree in BME, or another engineering discipline ( plus certain life science coursework ), or life science ( plus certain engineering coursework ).

For the second exam, called the Principles and Practices, Part 2, or the Professional Engineering exam, candidates may select a particular engineering discipline's content to be tested on ; there is currently not an option for BME with this, meaning that any biomedical engineers seeking a license must prepare to take this examination in another category ( which does not affect the actual license, since most jurisdictions do not recognize discipline specialties anyway ).

There is an ongoing debate on the extent to which the writing of programs is an art form, a craft or an engineering discipline.

Chemical engineering emerged upon the development of unit operations, a fundamental concept of the discipline.

Control engineering or control systems engineering is the engineering discipline that applies control theory to design systems with desired behaviors.

Before it emerged as a unique discipline, control engineering was practiced as a part of mechanical engineering and control theory was studied as a part of electrical engineering, since electrical circuits can often be easily described using control theory techniques.

Control engineering is the engineering discipline that focuses on the modeling of a diverse range of dynamic systems ( e. g. mechanical systems ) and the design of controllers that will cause these systems to behave in the desired manner.

As a result, focus is shifting back to the mechanical engineering discipline, as intimate knowledge of the physical system being controlled is often desired.

With the emergence of chemical engineering as a discipline at the end of the 19th century, scientific rather than empirical methods could be applied.

However, the design of complex software systems is often the domain of software engineering, which is usually considered a separate discipline.

He initially chose engineering as his field of study since at the time he was convinced that there was nothing new to discover in mathematics.

The disadvantage is that there is no protection once information protected as trade secret is uncovered by others through reverse engineering, for example, whereas patent has a guaranteed time of protection in exchange for disclosing the information to the public.

Although he initially felt at home at Tarnover, Nick eventually becomes aware of experiments in genetic engineering being performed there.

In a limited sense, they resemble more modern conceptions of man-made life forms, such as androids, the Replicants in Blade Runner, and the Cylons in the new Battlestar Galactica, but in Čapek's time there was no conception of modern genetic engineering ( DNA's role in heredity was not confirmed until 1952 ).

Initially there were five schools: four scientific ( civil engineering, mechanical engineering, mining and metallurgy, and analytical chemistry ) and one of general literature.

The DMCA specifically provides for reverse engineering of software for interoperability purposes, so there was some controversy as to whether software license agreement clauses which restrict this are enforceable.

The first accredited computer engineering degree program in the United States was established at Case Western Reserve University in 1971., there were 170 ABET-accredited computer engineering programs in the US.

In contrast to regulated professions such as engineering, law or medicine, there is not a legally-required educational requirement or license for economists.

While there, he often visited the nearby engineering works of William Ramshaw.

Petroleum engineering has historically been one of the highest paid engineering disciplines, although there is a tendency for mass layoffs when oil prices decline.

The team that designed the Mini was remarkably small: as well as Issigonis, there was Jack Daniels ( who had worked with him on the Morris Minor ), Chris Kingham ( who had been with him at Alvis ), two engineering students and four draughtsmen.

Although there have been many struggles in the past decade, the company still remains one of the great prides of Czech industry and has proven to be a valuable asset to international engineering, with its unique assembly and production methods and designs.

Like the recent Scheherazade from London ( High Fidelity, Sept. 1961 ), it is successful because emphasis has been placed on good musical and engineering practices rather than on creating sensational effects.

`` We have over 20 divisions -- each of which has an engineering department headed by a chief engineer.
