ARE YOU AN ENGINEER?
Grand Challenges for Engineering
Make solar energy economical
Solar energy provides less than 1% of the world's total energy but it has the potential to provide much, much more.
Manage the nitrogen cycle
Engineers can help restore balance to the nitrogen cycle with better fertilization technologies and by capturing and recycling waste.
Provide energy from fusion
Human-engineered fusion has been demonstrated on a small scale. The challenge is to scale up the process to commercial proportions, in an efficient, economical and environmentally benign way.
Secure cyberspace
It's more than preventing identity theft. Critical systems in banking, national security and physical infrastructure may be at risk.
Reverse-engineer the brain
The intersection of engineering and neuroscience promises great advances in health care, manufacturing and communication.
THE WORLD WITHOUT ENGINEER?
