I am looking at what I am going to do after high school, so far I am looking at physics, but I am keeping my options open. I have never had a very sturdy definition of engineering so; I am asking: What is engineering?

We produce a leading CFD (computational fluffy dynamics) package specifically for the design of teddy bears with the optimimal coefficents of snuggly-ness.who'se function is based on science (ie, cars and computers, not teddy bears).

Engineering is a field of study and practice that involves using scientific and mathematical principles to design and build structures, machines, systems, and processes to solve real-world problems.
There are many different types of engineering, including mechanical, electrical, civil, chemical, aerospace, and biomedical engineering. Each type focuses on a specific area of study and has its own unique principles and techniques.
Engineers need a combination of technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and creativity. They also need strong communication and teamwork skills to work effectively with others on projects.
The engineering design process is a systematic approach to problem-solving that involves identifying a problem, researching and brainstorming possible solutions, selecting the best solution, creating a prototype or design, testing and refining the design, and finally implementing the solution.
Engineering plays a role in almost every aspect of our daily lives. Some common examples include the design and construction of buildings, bridges, and roads; the development of new technologies like smartphones and computers; and the creation of medical devices and treatments.
