ENGINEERING, GEOLOGICAL AND MINING ENGINEERING

1. Engineering is a term applied to the profession in which a knowledge of the mathematical and natural sciences, gained by study, experience, and practice, is applied to the efficient use of the materials and forces of nature. The term engineer properly denotes a person who has received professional training in pure and applied science, but is often loosely used to describe the operator of an engine, as in the terms locomotive engineer, marine engineer, or stationary engineer. In modern terminology these latter occupations are known as crafts or trades. Between the professional engineer and the craftsperson or tradesperson, however, are those individuals known as subprofessionals or paraprofessionals, who apply scientific and engineering skills to technical problems; typical of these are engineering aides, technicians, inspectors, draftsmen, and the like.
2. The main branches of engineering are the following: aeronautical and aerospace engineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and electronics engineering, geological and mining engineering, industrial or management engineering, mechanical engineering, military engineering, naval or marine engineering, nuclear engineering, safety engineering, and sanitary engineering....
 

2. Письменно ответьте на следующие вопросы к тексту:

    1) Why does the engineer who works in any of these fields usually require a basic knowledge of the other engineering fields?

    2) What branches of engineering do you know? 

    3) What does the term engineer denote? 

    4) What sciences is the mining engineer trained in? 

   5) Why is the surveying and drawing of geological maps and sections an important part of the work of the engineering geologist?
