My Diploma is Common Engineering Program.

2. First i will like to talk about my industries, No matter which major i may end up with in 3 years time, I will be a full qualify diploma engineer. Innovation is very important in engineering industries as the world is involving, we have to make use of the latest technologies to innovate with our currently ready equipment to come out with a upgraded and better equipment.

3. Innovation Engineering is defined as a method for solving technology and business problems for organizations who want to innovate, adapt, and/or enter new markets using expertise in emerging technologies (e.g. data, AI, system architecture, blockchain), technology business models, innovation culture, and high-performing networks.

My diploma is Common Engineering Program.

2. Innovation is related to my course because in the world of engineering, new ideas and concepts are always created to help mankind. Be it daily things you use Everyday such as a vacuum cleaner to war machines. As mankind is always evolving, innovation and creativity is created to guide the world. As we are evolving up to industry 4.0 with many high tech gadgets created by mankind, it is also essential that we continue to advance forward with technology to help mankind.

3. I have done some research about innovation and i came across a website, (https://www.theaquaponicsource.com/what-is-aquaponics/ ) dedicated to helping the Eco-system by building a self sustaining Eco-system with lower cost rates. This can be essential to help mankind. As land is sacred, building a vertical farm and putting it  in every household can save space. Wouldn't it be nice to have organic vegetables every day?

Though each product will have its downside such as the water running out and you have to constantly refill it once every month, this is where innovation comes in. There are always constant things to be improved which is why, innovation is related to industry 4.0.


Another research I've found was implementing solar panels to

135,000 four-room flats by 2030. By doing this, we are able to save more electricity as the source would be coming directly from the Sun. Innovations can be found everywhere. With the creativity mindset and goal, nothing is impossible for man to achieve.

    2) I believe that innovation plays an important role to my course or rather the engineering industry as a whole. Engineers have made most things possible and coexist with us in our everyday lives. We are able to come up with different solutions on improving in different industries such as transportation, machinery in factories and even our own healthcare.

     For example, Singapore has used AI technology to fight the recent pandemic of Covid-19. With AI technology, healthcare workers will be immediately notified with information on the virus using an app. This app could include patient records and the treatment to use for each individual. This may possibly be one of the greater improvement for healthcare and would be used for a long period of time.
