'''Engineering''' is the science, skill, and profession of acquiring and applying scientific,
'''Piping Engineering''' is structured to raise the level of expertise in piping design and to improve the competitiveness in the global markets. This course provides various piping system designs, development skills and knowledge of current trends of plant layout.  
economic, social, and practical knowledge, in order to design, build, and maintain structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes.
The American Engineers' Council for Professional Development (ECPD, the predecessor of ABET)has defined engineering as:
The creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, or manufacturing processes, or works utilizing them singly or in combination; or to construct or operate the same with full cognizance of their design; or to forecast their behavior under specific operating conditions; all as respects an intended function, economics of operation or safety to life and property.


One who practices engineering is called an engineer, and those licensed to do so may have more formal designations such as Professional Engineer, Chartered Engineer, Incorporated Engineer, Ingenieur or European Engineer. The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of more specialized sub disciplines, each with a more specific emphasis on certain fields of application and particular areas of technology.
Piping Engineers is a vital member of engineering teams and numerous vacancies are available in the areas of design, layout, analysis, construction, operation and maintenance of piping systems. With the broad technical background piping engineers can prepare themselves for various vacancies in material control, estimating, field engineering, and technical sales and support in refinery, petrochemical, chemical Industry.




==Main branches of engineering==
==Objectives==
Engineering, much like other science, is a broad discipline which is often broken down into several sub-disciplines. These disciplines concern themselves with differing areas of engineering work. Although initially an engineer will usually be trained in a specific discipline, throughout an engineer's career the engineer may become multi-disciplined, having worked in several of the outlined areas. Engineering is often characterized as having four main branches:
* To identify the basic vocabulary and to introduce the major concepts of piping system design
* Chemical engineering:The application of physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering principles in order to carry out chemical processes on a commercial scale.
* To provide and understand the basic piping requirements for design as per the international codes and standards
* Civil engineering:The design and construction of public and private works, such as infrastructure (airports, roads, railways, water supply and treatment etc.), bridges, dams, and buildings.
* To understand how to design cost effective new installation
* Electrical engineering :The design and study of various electrical and electronic systems, such as electrical circuits, generators, motors,electromagnetic or electromechanical  devices, electronic devices, electronic circuits,optical fibers, optoelectronic devices, computer systems, telecommunications, instrumentation, controls, and electronics.
* To understand how to create cost effective design in trouble shooting as well as while improving existing piping system.
* Mechanical engineering :The design of physical or mechanical systems, such as power and energy systems, aerospace or aircraft products, weapon systems,transportation  products  engines, compressors, powertrains, kinematic chains, vacuum technology, and vibration isolation equipment.
 
Beyond these four, sources vary on other main branches. Historically, naval engineering and mining engineering were major branches. Modern fields sometimes included as major branches include aerospace, petroleum, systems, audio, software, architectural,biosystems, biomedical, industrial, materials,and nuclear engineering.New specialties sometimes combine with the traditional fields and form new branches - for example Earth Systems Engineering and Management involves a wide range of subject areas including anthropology, engineering, environmental science, ethics and philosophy. A new or emerging area of application will commonly be defined temporarily as a permutation or subset of existing disciplines; there is often gray area as to when a given sub-field becomes large and/or prominent enough to warrant classification as a new branch.One key indicator of such emergence is when major universities start establishing departments and programs in the new field.
For each of these fields there exists considerable overlap, especially in the areas of the application of sciences to their disciplines such as physics, chemistry and mathematics.
