*Computer Engineering - The entire process of designing and coding computers and computer related devices.
*Computer Science or Software Engineering - The design and development of software for use in digital systems
*Electrical Engineering - The design of electrical systems, such as transformers, as well as electronic goods.
*Fire Protection Engineering - is the application of science and engineering principles to protect people and their environments from the destructive effects of fire and smoke.
*Genetic Engineering - The design and development process of integrating genes and DNA segments from one species with another species.
*Industrial Engineering - The design and analysis of logistical and resource systems.
*Instrumentation engineering - The design of all electronic instruments.
*Mechanical engineering - The design of physical or mechanical systems, such as engines, kinematic chains, and vibration isolation equipment.
*Mechatronics Engineering - A hybrid of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering, intended to examine the design of automation systems.
*Manufacturing engineering - The ability to plan the practices of manufacturing, to research and develop the tool, processes, machines and equipment, and to integrate the facilities and systems for producing quality products with optimal expenditure.
*Military Engineering - Primarily concerned with warfare, military engineering encompasses mobility, counter-mobility, survivability, and general engineering tasks.
*Mining Engineering - The exploration and extraction of raw materials from the earth, include ore reserves such as coal, metals, non-metals, aggregates, sand, and gravel. Proceeding extraction applying mineral processeng that includes ore size reduction, multiple classification, benefication, calcining, sintering, and other value adding processes
*Nuclear Engineering - Application of the breakdown of atomic nuclei and/or other sub-atomic physics, based on the principles of nuclear physics.
*Test Engineering - The application of one (or more) engineering branch or one (or more) pure scientific dicipline for the sole purpose of validation and verification of design, development, production, and/or maintenance of object under test.
