system design is marked by technological sophistication but a lack of appreciation for financial practicality. The system comprises a large number LEO satellites designed to communicate with each other and relay information (voice, pages, data, etc.) to land based gateways which then relay calls to phones on the network. In this design and with this large number of satellites, Iridium allows for near ubiquitous telephone coverage around the world. From a purely technical standpoint, the design is

Engineering Design Process Flight decks on planes are a complex series of buttons, switches, knobs and lights. But pilots use each of these controls to operate a different piece of equipment and navigate the plane safely. How do engineers design the flight deck so it works most efficiently for a pilot? Its questions like that which must be asked and successfully answered for a piece of equipment to be functional and successful in a plane. Kirschen Seah is a systems engineer for a commercial avionics

present in this field has attracted me and it is consistent with my enthusiasm for Mathematics and Science. It has a lot of scope as well. I have gone through the entire course and the specific areas, which interested me, were Robotics and Project Design. I know what a career in Engineering is like, since I have done an internship as a Engineer in MTA. I have been quite impressed by the teamwork involved in Mechanical Engineering; how people work in groups, in order to complete a project for example

provide more advanced technology. 6) 8) 9) Describe the concept of Modular Design and Robust Design. Modular design is about production design, a design that separates a product into smaller part that can be created by any whom or company, which gives flexibility to a product as a whole. for example, automobile is subdivided into different smaller parts, such as muffler, engines, head light and etc. Robust Design is a product designed to a certain specification that can be used and will not
