This article emphasizes on the role engineering plays in the existence and working of any civilization. The power of engineering is that it provides the foundation for further advancements. That enables access to natural resources, the access increases the potential for human freedom and creativity, and that freedom allows for the creation of new engineering advances. The engineered contrivances are diverse—coming in many sizes and configurations, being as ancient as rope or as new as self-driving vehicles—and at first sight appear complicated, disorganized. Access to more power—that is, the ability to move across space, in opposition to the forces that oppose motion—due to the application of engines touched off an explosion in new contrivances. It is only when access to the fruits of engineering is severed, due to earthquakes and hurricanes or accidents and acts of despotism that most people become aware of the monumental role that engineering plays in our lives today. Today, biomedical engineers are working to improve and extend lives. They are part of an engineering tradition that extends for millennia.
