Interview

1. Could you please define Engineering in your own words?
The engineering is the science that studies the combination of scientific, mathematical and technical knowledge to create and solve situations of the daily life.
2. What influenced you to pursue Electronics engineering, industrial engineering, computer science engineering or informatics engineering?
The work of my father and my Mathematical skills influenced on me to choose this career ( Industrial Engineering ) and especially the career has a extensive field of work.
3. Could you please describe the educational process required to become an Engineer?
The process to become an engineer is not easy, because you will have to study every day and you can not go out every weekend with your friends.
4. What are the skills you need to be a good engineer?
For me to be a good engineer you must be very smart and creative.
5. What job considerations were you looking for after you completed your education?
Any work related to my career, luckyly I found it but in the future I would like to be a supervisor in the environmental area.
6. What's something of your school life that you enjoy the most?
When you study a lot for many days and you get a good calification.
7. From your perspective, what is the most difficult part of being an engineering student?
The amount of days that you will have to dedicate studying.
8. What are your plans for the future?
Find a good job related with my career in Venezuela or go to England to get a master’s degree in plant manager.
9. Point out your most personally gratifying moment in Engineering school.
everything that I did when I was at urbe for example share with my friends.
10. Why would you recommend Engineering as a career?
Is a beautiful career and very interesting and nowdays many companies are looking for good engineers around the world and it is a great oportunity in your life.

Dictionary
Industrial engineering is a broad field compared to other engineering disciplines. The major activities of industrial engineering stem from manufacturing industries and include work methods analysis and improvement; work measurement and the establishment of standards; machine tool analysis and design; job and workplace design; plant layout and facility design; materials handling; cost reduction; production planning and scheduling; inventory control, maintenance, and replacement; statistical quality control; scheduling; assembly-line balancing, systems, and procedures; and overall productivity improvement. Computers and information systems have necessitated additional activities and functions, including numerically controlled machine installation and programming; manufacturing systems design; computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing, design of experiments, quality engineering, and statistical process control; computer simulation, operations research, and management science methods; computer applications, software development, and information technology; human-factors engineering and ergonomics; systems design and integration; and robotics and automation.

Green Engineering Applications
The potential for green engineering applications spans almost every industry. While there are many ways to group these green applications, most fall into five categories:
- Environmental Monitoring
- Energy Storage Systems
- Power Quality Monitoring
- Solar Energy

Wind Energy
The Earth is unevenly heated by the sun resulting in the poles receiving less energy from the sun than the equator does. Also, the dry land heats up (and cools down) more quickly than the seas do. The differential heating drives a global atmospheric convection system reaching from the Earth's surface to the stratosphere which acts as a virtual ceiling. Most of the energy stored in these wind movements can be found at high altitudes where continuous wind speeds of over 160 km/h (100 mph) occur. Eventually, the wind energy is converted through friction into diffuse heat throughout the Earth's surface and the atmosphere.
The total amount of economically extractable power available from the wind is considerably more than present human power use from all sources. An estimated 72 TW of wind power on the Earth potentially can be commercially viable, compared to about 15 TW average global power consumption from all sources in 2005. Not all the energy of the wind flowing past a given point can be recovered
