Is there a problem that needs fixing?

Is there something to improve?

What works? And what’s missing?

Is there something we can do?

Some of us would just let it go

But if you like to create, like to explore,

Like to make things better than before,

Build, develop, and design,

Solve problems and apply

The things you like could be your career

You might be an engineer

When you see an airplane in the sky, or a windmill spin

Or take a ride on a roller coaster that you’re brave enough to get in

When you use a prosthetic leg or ride a train down the track

Odds are a mechanical engineer was helping with that

From tall traffic lights that signal when to safely go

To tiny microchips transmitting signals to a mobile phone

From self-driving cars to toys that talk or move about

An electrical engineer is sure to figure it out

Canals, bridges, sewage, dams, and roads

We build towers with steel beams to take a heavy load

We make water safe, so you can use it for years

Leave it up to civil engineers!

Software engineers write code to tell computers what to do

We design apps and video games, and play them, too

We make homes smarter, to help you throughout the day

We guide robots, cars, and rockets safely on their way

Chemical engineers produce, recycle, and reuse

We stir, mix, and separate in medicines and food

We develop new sources of fuel to keep our carbon footprint low

And some of us make fireworks explode!

What do you love? Opportunities abound

There’s an engineer for every industry around:

Aerospace, geological, audio,

bioengineering, biomedical,

structural, robotic, agricultural,

environmental, automotive, nuclear, materials,

manufacturing, marine, computer, energy,

Engineering’s in everything you could ever see

If you like to create, like to explore,

Like to make things better than before,

Build, develop, and design,

Solve problems and apply
