Connecting Math and Science!
Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs. (Taken from the Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2010-2011 Edition)
