...ESSAY Computer Aided Drafting better known as CAD has revolutionized the engineering world. It simplifies complex 2D drawing processes into virtual form which can easily be corrected at a click of a mouse. By the drawings being completely digitized, it almost eliminates wasted time for travel and mailing projects mainly because the engineer can just simply email the files anywhere around the world. Another advantage is the user can clean up jagged lines by zooming in on the imperfections and join them together. There are so many pluses with CAD such as no more smudges on paper, no fidgeting between drafting tools and extra care isn’t necessary damaging the paper it’s drawn on. The areas of profession it helps are vast, Architects, Mechanical Engineers and of course Graphic Designers. CAD makes it so much easier across the board regardless of the language barrier. Everyone is on the same page because it mainly requires the use of drawings and measurements. When the program first developed, it was an instant overnight success with its capabilities. Today, there isn’t any industry in sight that’s not using it for example: movie companies, car manufacturers, furniture companies and also forensic scientists. Computer-aided design, more commonly referred to as CAD, is the use of computer software, programs, and systems to create two-dimensional (2D) vector-based graphics and three-dimensional (3D) models that are used extensively in the architectural, design, drafting, and...

...Essay #1: What is your intended major? Discuss how your interest in the subject developed and describe any experience you have had in the field - such as volunteer work, internships and employment, participation in student organizations and activities - and what you have gained from your involvement. I’ve wanted to become a mechanical engineer ever since the first time I saw a Formula One racing car on TV. There was something special about the car that captured my interest. I admired the skillful drivers, but I was more drawn to the person who made the car. My father told me only mechanical engineers are able to design machines that complex. In that moment, I decided to study mechanical engineering so that I could design the best cars in the future. When I discovered physics in high school, I realized how exciting it was to focus on a subject I liked. The deeper I studied physics, the more passionate I became. My growing interest helped me make my decision to study abroad in the United States. I know that the U.S. has the most advanced engineering technology in the world, so I am excited by the possibility of continuing my education there. My parents support the idea wholeheartedly. In all the generations of my family, I will be the first to attend college—they would be proud if I pursued my studies in the United States. While there have been many events in college that have convinced me I am well-suited for the study of mechanical engineering—such as building...

...Communication and Writing Skills For many years, in the masses of people there has been made a stereotype of the working engineer. This is a person who spends ten hours straight in front of his computer, making some strange graphs and calculations. He is afraid of sunlight and spends his free time inventing the time machine. When people try to start a conversation he says that he has a lot of work to do and tries to run away as fast as possible. This picture may be a little exaggerated, but it is how media and television draw it. But today, engineers need communication and writing skills even more than actual engineering. Any engineering career starts from the resume writing. Usually a resume consists of two parts: the list of things that you have done well in your life and the cover letter. Dr. Craig Gunn, a professor of mechanical engineering, clearly explains, “Many big companies do not require the cover letter, but it will be much better for you to write one, because if a manager will read it for some reason, your chances to get a job will be a lot higher.” A person that is going to give you a job will not see you directly, so you have to convince him or her not to throw your resume in the basket by presenting all of your best qualities in the resume. To write a good convincing resume is a very difficult thing to accomplish without some preparations. A good thing will be to go to a library and read a special book about resume writing. Also, the Internet is...

It is the highest ranked university in Turkey and the 85th ranked university in the world according to Times Higher Education [1]. Education is taught in English for all departments. I was successfully ranked the 4913th student within 1.6 million students in the university entrance exam of Turkey, which granted me acceptance at METU. From the time that I started my bachelor untill graduation, completing my masters in Germany has always been my dream. For this reason I have taken German courses for 7 semesters at METU starting from A1.2 to B2.1 level (refer to academic transcript). Only two of them contributed to my diploma grade, the rest were for my personal development and to increase my chance of acceptance into the masters course in Germany. I was one of 8 students among the 20,000 population of METU, who achieved this level. During my last years of my Bachelor I was searching universities in Germany. For this purpose I have been there 2 times in 2014 and 2015 semester holidays. I have also...

The Larry Richards Reader includes a listing by Stuart Umpleby of notable definitions:[6] * "Science concerned with the study of systems of any nature which are capable of receiving, storing and processing information so as to use it for control." — A. N. Kolmogorov * "The art of securing efficient operation." — Louis Couffignal[7] * "'The art of steersmanship': deals with all forms of behavior in so far as they are regular, or determinate, or reproducible: stands to the real machine -- electronic, mechanical, neural, or economic -- much as geometry stands to real object in our terrestrial space; offers a method for the scientific treatment of the system in which complexity is outstanding and too important to be ignored." — W. Ross Ashby * "A branch of mathematics dealing with problems of control, recursiveness, and information, focuses on forms and the patterns that connect." — Gregory Bateson * "The art of effective organization." — Stafford Beer * "The art and science of manipulating defensible metaphors." — Gordon Pask * "The art of creating equilibrium in a world of constraints and possibilities." — Ernst von Glasersfeld * "The science and art of understanding." — Humberto Maturana * "The ability to cure all temporary truth of eternal triteness." — Herbert Brun Other...

...Management Planning Paper Samuel K. Mims MGT 330 Roxanne Bates July 26th, 2011 Management planning is the most important function of management because it is the foundation for the organization. The planning function of management is the management function of systematically making decisions about the goals and activities than an individual, a group, a work unit, or the overall organization will pursue. Planning is specifying the goals to be achieved and deciding in advance the appropriate actions needed to achieve those goals. Planning activities for the company include analyzing current situations, anticipating the future, determining objectives, deciding in what types of activities the company will engage, choosing corporate and business strategies and determining the resources needed to achieve the organization’s goals (Bateman & Snell, 2008). When it comes to a huge corporation such as Boeing, the planning function becomes even more important because there are so many different divisions within the corporation that must be accounted for. In Boeing’s case, they are a multinational corporation that provides their services all throughout the world so they have to plan on a worldwide scale which is a much more difficult task than planning as a domestic company. Boeing’s planning functions are well thought out and executed to the fullest of their ability as they are very focused on their stakeholders needs, motivating their workforce, enabling teams, requiring alignment...
