The Map of Engineering: "The field of Engineering is amazingly diverse touching just about everything in our world. In this video I attempt to capture all of that diversity in one picture: the Map of Engineering, so that we can get our heads around it all and set some bounds on the subject. If you are interested in learning about engineering or want to pursue it as a career this video might help you figure out what direction to pursue."
