Agents of Change: Part 4

Engineering: the building blocks of creativity

A century ago, people would've thought that iPods and mobile phones, personal computers and microchips, as some kind of magic. If you traveled back in time, even the idea of a car would've been thought of in the same way as putting the man on the moon. But look where we are in the present: not only are cars common in every part of the world, but we've even put a man on the moon!

And you can thank engineers for turning dreams into reality — without their ideas, we would still be going from one town to another on horseback and writing letters by candlelight. And if you want to know what the future will bring, check out these nifty engineering ideas:
