      Introduction

      This Report is part of a series on engineering specialties.

      While traditional engineering still drives this profession, advancing needs and technologies have increased the demand for more focused specialization within this discipline. There are basics to any phase of engineering and many specialties are pursued as part of the traditional engineering education. Some are now professions in their own right with curricula and degree programs to underscore their importance.

      Engineering specialties are really a product of the 20th century. One has only to look at the start of the century to realize how very far we have come in just one hundred years. From the horse and buggy to high-powered automobiles. From the experimental flight of the Kitty Hawk to successfully landing a spacecraft on Mars complete with pictures, from communications by telegraph, to worldwide communications in a nanosecond. . From health epidemics in a population of less than 90 million with a life expectancy of under 50 years of age, to health prevention for a population of more than 260 million with a life expectancy of more than 75 years of age; and the contrasts go on and on.

      There is no doubt that engineering has had a big hand in moving the country and the world forward. Engineering wonders from bridges that can span miles over waterways to nuclear-powered submarines that can
