- Engineering explained - from mobile phones to the Burj Khalifa (the world's tallest building), computer games and toothpaste to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and aeroplanes.
The video is intended to attract high school students to the engineering profession, but should entertain anyone interested in engineering. It highlights the importance of maths and science and touches on chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, mechatronics engineering, mining engineering, and software engineering.
The animation was made by the Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment at the University of Newcastle (www.newcastle.e..., working with illustrator Jeremy Ley (www.jeremyley.com) and creative director Nick Parker from Light Creative (www.lightcreati....
I watched this video about 8 years ago in Grade 5 Science class. I am now studying Civil Engineering at the University of Waterloo. To say this video inspired me would be an understatement.
Wow James! That’s awesome to hear.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO A VIDEO ABOUT ALL THE ENGINEERING BRANCHES. YOU ARE THE ONLY CHANNEL I TRUST TO THINGS LIKE THIS. PLEASE DO GRANT MY REQUEST :(( THANKS IN ADVANCE THOUGH
Mrs. CliffWinHoodMings Yes please that would be very helpful
Mrs. CliffWinHoodMings We would absolutely love to! Our only barrier to creating that content is funding. We are currently considering a crowdfunding campaign to help make it possible. Thanks for your enthusiasm and encouragement!
UON FEBE Well tell me when you make one so i can donate.
Yes, that would be awesome!
+Mrs. CliffWinHoodMings Please don't forget Renewable Energy Engineering :D
This cartoonist is great! Awesome presentation overall. :)
iorbit it's computer generated.
;)
You're computer generated.
It is shit
We're really glad you're loving this video! We agree that engineering is an amazing profession.
30 LIKES?! NO REPLIES?!
Pretzel what is this music...??
Engineering is the application of maths and sciences to create products that solve humanity's problems. Period!
you made it seem complicated, just wack something with a wrench and it'll be level 3 in no time
link055 don't forget those dispensers!
Engineering is applied math and physics. Plus stress. Engineering a lot of fun, until the managements gets involved. Bring coffee and a dark sense of humor. A social life is optional, very optional.
oh.
Engineers have a strange sense of humor. Don't get upset.
teleporters too!
'Engineer' is pretty much synonymous to 'design', though as a profession it also extends to the people who refine already existing designs and materials. This broad definition is why two Engineers can have very little in common when it comes to the work they do; one Engineer may design aircraft with expertise in physics while another can create new shampoo formulas with expertise in chemistry and biology. Really, an engineer can be anyone that works with materials or designs something... narrowing it down to pretty much any job in existence. Even a garbageman can be called a sanitation engineer.
No mention of aero space engineer when talking planes?
I was thinking the same lol
That's just a branch of mechanical engineering
Design engineer, Electrical engineer, Structural engineer, mechanical engineer, aerodynamics engineer. I work in aerospace. Aerospace engineer is a broad term that does not define the field of expertise.
Aeronautical engineers to be precise.
Can't thank you enough for making and posting this.Used it to sell engineering to a group of high quality 15/16 year old Physics students who were unsure about engineering and this totally sold it to them I would anticipate a significant uptake in engineering degrees from them. Thanks Philippa
Philippa Wallington That's great Philippa - we're delighted it's helping young people get excited about engineering!
Its a great job until the math and physics start to hurt, but anyone can succeed if they work hard and keep focus.
Loren Aguilar just curious why do u think anyone can succeed? Like I said this isn’t an attack , I’m genuinely curious
Every bit of your plane has been touched by engineers: mechanical, mechatronic, chemical, mining, electrical and software engineers. In fact, almost every type of engineer except aeronautical.
AV3NG3R00 HAHAHAHA SO TRUE!
Haha
Haha
Aeronautical engineering is just a branch of mechanical engineering. The same goes for chemical engineering, mechatronics engineering, materials engineering, etc.
Automation?
We're trying to demystify the engineering profession, particularly for young people. In Australia, and many other countries, we have a shortage of engineers and of people studying maths, science and technology subjects at senior levels. We're hoping this video will help inspire people to study these subjects and consider becoming engineers.
I found my purpose in videos like these, thank you.
First off, I love this Australian accent :')
And I had no idea that's how they built our Burj Khalifa, and yes, our temperature do reach 50 degrees x-x. And I love the way this video was presented, it looks amazing!!
Now I'm a new freshman to study Sustainable and Renewable energy engineering..It's something that I believe in, but I'm not much of a practical problem solver,, nor am I that interested in computer programming.. does that matter? Any engineers out there to share their university experience and say what are the challenges, advantages, and any piece of advice? Should I even study engineering, or change my major to something else?
Hey Richard - we're glad you're inspired. What an awesome profession to aim for!
This is so fabulous! I was looking for an introduction to what engineering is for my 7/8th grade science students tomorrow and this is perfect. Thank you!
I'm a Saudi Arabian and my dream is to become an aerospace/aeronautical engineer. I just realized that Australians call an airplane aeroplane lol. Well you learn something new everyday! Thanks for the video, I loved it! ^_^
Hey. I myself am an engineer from Russia. Can I give my opinion, which will help you?
Your choice will depend on several factors. Money is very important. If you have more than $ 30,000 for each year of study and knowledge for admission, choose America and Europe - the best universities (MIT, Stanford ...). If you have almost no money, then the choice is Russia, for example, the best university, Moscow State University is about $ 5,000 (300,000 rubles) per year.
There are also famous universities in Europe - in Zurich (ETH Zurich), also in Germany and France with their great engineering tradition.
Alternatives are Asia, China and Singapore. But I can say that there are differences in teaching. If you are not motivated, then no prestigious university like Oxford will ever make you a good specialist.
بشر؟
Lol. The problem is often "this is wasting too much money" when you're actually an engineer... but when you look for root cause, yeah, it's always interesting and inspiring to solve it.
just found my fav subjects in a job, thank you so much!
I just fell in love engeneering!!
This video was very helpful since I'm trying to decide what engineer I would like to be
Thank you very much for this video, I understood very well the process and the definition of engineering. Thank you very much :)
The artist for this is amazing
Hi MrVman321, Engineering is a really varied profession and your work-life balance will depend greatly on your career choices. Different employers have different employment conditions and work cultures. Also, it will depend on the type of engineering role you move in to - management, consulting, research, field work, public sector, private sector etc. But it's certainly possible to have a successful career in this profession and maintain a happy and healthy personal life.
I am a student Civil Engineer at NYU Poly and i appreciate this video.. Good work guys :)
Nice video! Engineering is very important to the world. Engineers help analyze and design ideas that allow us to live in a better and hygienic place.
Love being an Engineer, no two days are the same!! Just want to build bigger better faster and stronger.
2:47 back to the future reference! loved it!
I'm so glad to be a civil engineer!
The best ever seen video for Knowing what is Engineering
Great video, helped me understand what Engineering is about. Thank you!
This is outstandiing! Brilliant piece of work! I love my profession!
I am so confused I still don't know what to study in the university and I still have 5 months to decide help me guys with ur suggestions please :)
Очень красиво рисует, должен признать
Magnificently done! Great job!!!
Thanks very much!
We are glad you enjoyed it.
I normally dont comment on videos but this is the best video I have seen on youtube
Thanks Agnes - feel free to share it around!
this is the first time ive ever seen anyone mention Mechatronics outside of my class. i'm in Mechatronics and whenever i tell anyone that, nobody knows what it is.
in reality though, we can do most of the things mechanical, electrical and software engineers do.
Make more videos about engineering, please.
What type of math and science do you need for engineering though? Because I only know some math and science.
How many classes/credits should I take freshman year in engineering? How much is manageable? I don't mind graduating a bit later than four years.
Awesome, but it is a very idealistic view of engineering :P If a new invention threatens a large market it is hidden, but as an engineer in training and a proud idealist, I want the future to be free of greed even more than I want all cars to be electric haha. Great video!
I'm 14 years old and i want to become a mechanical engineer.
In school i'm am able to pick 4 subjects to study for me GCSEs what do i need to become an engineer.
I was thinking maybe: triple science, design, computer science and french !
Joe Burden all great choices but may I suggest either philosophy or ancient greek language instead of french. both would benefit you greatly in life and in your career goals more so then french ever could , but if french is a life goal of yours and a passion that gives you pleasure then follow your passion.
Joe Burden You don't really need to worry about your subjects at GCSE really giving you an insight into mechanical engineering. I'm at college studying A-levels and the subjects at college are the ones that matter for uni. Just focus on getting good grades in maths and physics at least and any other sciences but you can also focus on your other subjects. As long as you have the grades to study Maths and physics at college and chemistry if you feel like it. You can even look at mechanical engineering lectures online to give you an idea
Joe Burden Hi Joe, we're really sorry we didn't reply to your comment sooner, but would strongly encourage you to take a high level maths subject as maths is absolutely fundamental to engineering!
Joe Burden One problem that I've seen through alot of research is that engineers are treated like dirt in the UK... What I suggest you do is you take A levels then get some experience in the UK then ship yourself as quick as possible to a foreign country that cares for its engineers examples include France, Germany and even Saudi Arabia... You would be paid twice as much salary there and the management in most companies is much better than in the UK.
However thats a long term strategy plan but hey its never too young to plan it all out.. So I suggest one subject you take is GCSE French or German and get it to grade B at least...
Brudah me to!
Lets talk about the effort exerted on this video
It looks like a job someone has to be so dedicated and so into, and here I was thinking in building something for my own use
nice, thinking of taking electrical next year
The animation is too good
Great info for young students!
Well done. Just shown it to my 15 year old son.
I'd Like A Video Which Talked About Other Branches Of Engineering Like For Example Civil Engineering...
Thanks JackTheCanadian - we're so glad we've inspired you!
i remember watching this video 2 years ago when i started do engineering gcse. i really wanted to be an engineer but i had a horrible teacher who kept making fun of my voice so i dropped out of the course. now that I'm in my 2nd year of college im thinking of doing engineering again.
i love this videos... in the future i study computer engineering because i love this work maths...
funny to say that there is a working hoverboard at the time, which is made by lexus. Look how far we have come.
super nice engineering explanation, thanks for helping me w/ my homework assignment. FROM Cuyamaca College in San Diego California
Habla de como un ingeniero puedo resolver un problema , y que toma ideas locas o no tan convincenetes , que llegan a resolver el problema, al que se enfrentan .
The hoverboard is now officially made... :P
+WayneTheGreat lol it is now... and it doesnt need a special floor ...
αnnaka m.
i'm talking about LEXUS hover board...
Same :P
Keval Patel
Yes, but some people didn't get it I guess...
*****
it worked even on water...wood.whatever surface, i dont know what you're talking about man
Such a nice video! Amazingly done 👌
Hi Regina,
I'm really sorry but we don't have a tapescript we can share. I hope the video is still of interest and use for your English Classes.
Thanks,
UoN Engineering
Please never stop making videos
Great video! Love your story telling technique with the illustrations. Problems solvers is exactly what we are :) Engineering in every moment of life. Cheers!
Thabk you for explaining i now know what kind of enigneer i want to by a software or electronic
I've got a question.
Later I want to be an engineer, but if you design something, Will you we able to build it? Also the electrical parts? Thanx alot
I always liked math and science but also like other subjects in school. I'm currently interested in studying engineering in college but whats holding me back is my fear of being consumed by work. I simply want a job that I can enjoy,help the world,make a good salary,but also have time for a personal life. One day I hope to have kids.If I'm sucked into my work I probably won't be the best dad. Do engineers have a good work/life balance? Anybody got any info/tips?btw interested in mechanical eng.
Why u stop making video ?
I actually am thinking about studying to become an electrical engineer, because i love electronics and solving problems.
Awesome video!!!! I totally agreee with 3nadilag !!!! I want more !
Agreed.
wow! I never thought I’d say this about engineering, but I actually might check this out!!!! thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
This was done exceptionally! Thank you!
Currently pondering on how to make highly focused sun beams evaporate water for gaining work through boundary expansion. I know it's gotta be possible... just how to do it..
Maybe if you put a potent amount of water into a molecular canister made regenerative petroleum and focused solar energy onto the water you could achieve the results you desire.
I’ve literally watched this about 50 times soo interesting!!🥰🥰
Is it possible that I get the trsncription of this video?
This really inspired me
BEST VIDEO EVER! on engineering
Thnx for it...it's just so inspirational
Proud to be an engineer
excellent video thanks
Nicely made wonderful video!Keep the good work on.
Good morning! the video is GREAT!! Do you have a French version of that video.
Superb. Thank you
Excellent Video.
What about Aeronautical Engineers? without them the plane wouldn't be able to fly, wings are slightly useful :D
Yeah I was thinking about that :P
Maybe they’re so far ahead in the future, planes don’t have wings 😂
Great intro to engineering video!
Holy shit !!!
This video is sooooo Amazing 🤯🤯🤯..
A great Video to inspire all of us .. and gives us an idea about engineering.
i'm a software engineer ...i like the video a lot
well explained
Who was the speaker/Spokesperson?
I watched this is class today :) It told me ALOT. I love this video
Such a great video ! This helped me out a lot . This deserves wayy more viewes.
What did she said at 3.35-3.50?
solving idea of problem of people so that get what there in their feature
i love this channel
Loved the video !
Thank you for making it !!
Thanks for the response, I appreciate it :)
I lOVE THIS ART STYLE AND I USED THIS FOR MY SCIENCE CLASS ....well my teacher did
Such a nice video🖤✨
Woah, being a engineer looks so fun!
I wish I had this video in Spanish for my dual language immersion class.
Good video for engineering
