<h2>1.4.1 Overview of Sections 1.4 and 1.5</h2>
<p>Now that you are familiar with course logistics and how to use the edX platform, let's get started with the content portion of 16.00x. In Sections 1.4 and 1.5, we take a closer look at what engineering --- and more specifically --- aerospace engineering entails. We will also introduce "The Aerospace Perspective" and explain why it is important to the content of this course.</p>
<p>Upon completing Unit 1, students are expected to be able to:</p>
<ul>
<li>MO 1.1: Discuss the relationship between science and engineering, including why they are different as well as how each depends on the other</li>
<li>MO 1.2: Identify the sub-disciplines that are critical to aerospace engineering</li>
<li>MO 1.3: Describe the basic steps of the CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement, Operate) engineering process</li>
<li>MO 1.4: Explain how aerospace engineering has transformed humanity’s perspective of our own planet and the solar system</li>
</ul>

<p>Before we delve into the subject of aerospace engineering, let us first talk about what engineering means in general. What is it that engineers do? What kinds of problems are engineers concerned with? What differentiates engineers from scientists? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Broadly speaking, engineering involves the application of science and mathematics to design and build structures, products, processes, or systems that improve people’s lives. Engineers work in a variety of industries and are tasked with solving some of the most challenging problems facing society. At MIT, there are 9 departments in the School of Engineering alone, which include Aeronautics and Astronautics, Biological Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Materials Science and Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Nuclear Science and Engineering, and the Engineering Systems Division.<o:p></o:p></p>
