What do engineers do?

As Theodore von Karman, an American engineer once observed, “Scientists explore what is ... but engineers create what has never been.”

Engineers are solution-finders. Problem-solvers. Innovators.

Engineering at Melbourne has had its fair share of innovation – from making Bluetooth work effectively to assisting patients with mobility problems, to irrigation and dams and their use in water management and targeted drug delivery.
