Engineer's Roles and Sustainability_1

1REFLECTIONReflection: Discussion on engineer’s roles and responsibilitiesI had discussed my roles and responsibilities into the project as an engineer. Mir andPinnington (2014) stated that an engineer is involved into profession work to relate science tobest possible translation of resources of nature in order to provide benefits to the team members.In the project, my role is an engineer. My main responsibilities are to first understand thepurpose as well as objectives of this project work. I had worked according to the projecttimescales and in scheduled cost. I had produced the project deliverables to being agreed withproject specifications. I had developed of new technological solutions to overcome with theproject issues. Therefore, I had to lead the project work with use of my technical knowledge andskills. During the engineering design process, my responsibility is to define the project relatedproblems, conduct research and analyze the solutions (Dolce & Di Bucci 2014). I had appliedtechniques of engineering analysis to test, produce and maintain the project work. When aproject failed, I had determined the causes of failure and test the project output to continue withits quality. I had involved into responsibility to develop the project results for useful purposes. Ihad contributed towards successful interaction and towards constructive motivation (Verzuh2015). As for example, I had developed the objectives of the project by review of the projectproposal and plan. I had identified my engineering responsibilities by identification of projectphases with review of the bids from the contractors.

2REFLECTIONMy roles and responsibilities as an engineer are related with the concepts into Trevelyantextbook. In this book, it is analyzed that an engineer is acted as a leader into the project withtechnical role with no management responsibilities. As a leader, it is required to understandproject requirements and then the engineer can inspire others to work into it. The engineer can demonstrate its capability for leadership in various extracurricular roleslike help to manage activities into the society (Tripathi & Goyal 2014).The engineerdemonstrated its capability for leadership through part time work recorded. As related to thetextbook and my own responsibilities, I worked as a supervisor with use of engineeringcapabilities to work out the leadership skills. Engineer can coordinate with own work and thencollaborate efficiently with another people. Sustainability into engineeringI had discussed the sustainability into engineering. Leach (2014) demonstrated thatsustainable engineering is based on the principles which support sustainable development. Thesustainable engineer can design, implement and produce sustainable solutions to the technicalproblems. In my point of view, the principles of sustainable engineering are taking into accountof decision making for research as well as industrial projects. They are also concerned intodecision making observes the funding of technological research.Verzuh (2015) argued that sustainability engineering achieves of the goals such asreduction of waste, materials management, pollution prevention and also enhancement ofproduct. As for example, I had determined that engineering includes of frequent ways to advanceprocesses and products to compose them more resourceful from an environmental as well as
