Susan Kristoff's Blog

I like to keep an eye on the views that each of my articles get, in order to generate new articles that are of interest to my readers. For some reason, I've had a lot of interest in my articles that are related to civil engineering topics, including my introductory article, Civil Engineering 101.
Search terms don't seem to be related to any news articles, so that doesn't explain the interest. Are my recent readers a group of civil engineering students who have recently returned to school? I may never know.
Here's a list so you can easily find the articles I've written that are related in some way to civil engineering:
Hydroelectric Power Generation
How Cofferdams are Used in Construction
Fatigue in Engineered Structures
Common Software Packages Used by Engineers
Is there a topic related to civil engineering that you'd like to learn more about? Click on my name above to send me a message about article topics you'd like to see at Suite101.

While engineering in its infancy was primarily concerned with what would now be considered civil engineering, and later mechanical engineering, today there is a wide variety of engineering branches and sub-branches. I'm trying to create a complete library of introductory articles on engineering specialties, and because the article format here does not support the large number of links that would be involved, I'm creating this blog post, and I intend to update the post as I create more and more articles.
So, here's your one-stop source for learning about the basic branches of engineering:
Electro-Mechanical Engineering
Management Engineering
Manufacturing Engineering
If the topic above has a link, you'll find an article detailing some introductory information about that branch of engineering and details on the sub-branches within the primary engineering area. If the topic does not have a link, it means that I'll be working on an introductory article soon, so come back and check up later if you're interested!
