In our first episode of Crash Course Engineering, Shini explains what engineering is, and gives a brief overview of its four main branches (civil, mechanical, electrical, and chemical) as well as a look at some of the other fields of engineering.
Crash Course Engineering is produced in association with PBS Digital Studios: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1mtdjDVOoOqJzeaJAV15Tq0tZ1vKj7ZV

I wish to see more engineering related stuff on YouTube instead of all the flat earth and conspiracy nut job garbage. Engineering and physics subjects are comfort food for my intellect.
I am an engeer.
FOR FILIPINO CIVIL ENGINEERS/ENGINEERING STUDENT OUT THERE ❗❗❗
I have tips and advices on my channel. 😊
Wow! Nice Video!
Off topic but did you mount the racks on the orange wall or did you buy it
Because I need something like that
I’m so bad at math like it hurts that I’m here looking at how to become an engineer
Can you guys help me with choosing one of these.
Civil Engineer, computer science, and car engineer
I’m stuck on those three and I don’t know which to chose. I’m an 8th grader going to 9th and I want to be ready and make sure I’m ready for a career
I’m here for homework 😂
She reminds me of mona from “the Fix”
I watching the engineering and physics crash course during summer break:))))
Ingenieering in spanish is ingeniero which comes from ingenio or ingenioso which means someone who has ingenuity.
So is someone that use ingenuity.
Don't has forestry engineering…. it's sad because is what I do and Don't exist a lot of informacion about…..
blob=aliens
Why do you keep featuring women in these engineering videos?
WHY DID THEY USE HEAVY INSTEAD OF ENGINEER
Was that a TF2 reference at 7:04?
Robots are a lot more CS and EE these days. Large ME teams are found making simpler machines though.
The host is unusually ugly.
Love the pokemon game reference. 11/10 stars as well. 🙂
I'd love to be an engineer but, alas, fear I've no chance as I'm 46 now and have always done mostly
unskilled work.
Stay safe and healthy, folks.
who else is here from their science class
Too bad you didn't mention about Environmental Engineering which is the most important one if you want to stay alive in this nature.
TIL why Civil Engineering is called "Civil" Engineering!
whos here cuz of mr post?
Is a Physics background expected to begin learning this field?
so if i want to shoot it to see if it dies, am i a scientist
How did she know I ate a pizza pocket last night?
What I liked about this video is that scientists always ask questions when they solving a problem or conducting an experiment, I could use this skill to better understand the topic that they are facing or talking about.
After I watched this video my question is how do engineers come up with these amazing ideas?.
Walli-E
7:05 They actually added heavy from Team fortress….
if I saw the blob I would run for my life
I have that same lamp and wall-e
. . . we don't have snow . . .
. . . its a ditto . . .
CATCH THE BLOB
Thanks
no way
no way
no way
no way
What about architectural engineering?
I have to watch this video for online schooling cuz of the coronavirus lol
n
Looking into this because I want to be 12B, Combat Engineer.
Was the 'blob' necessary in all this?
Fascinating stuff! Absolutely adore this series. It's so inspiring to see a woman like you in engineering. Thank you so much for this!
A+ on hand and face gestures Doc.
Having a beautiful woman of color who is a doctor explain engineering to me is a highlight of my day 😍🥰
So there's two kind of people in our society.
1. The day dreamer, the designer or the answer seeker.
2. The engineer, the guy who makes the dream come reality.
