Workstations are usually high powered machines designed for specialized, high end applications.
Engineering graphics is also a part of Computer Science. They can make engines which support physics and graphics.

"X-Windows", the "X server", or simply "X", is a special server designed for displaying graphics on a terminal or workstation. Originally, a more powerful server would run the applications, and a less powerful computer would just display the graphics. On today's Linux installations, the graphics server and the graphics are displayed on the same machine. For simplicity's sake, just think of it as running a remote desktop session to your own computer.
Graphics are Visual designs and creations that are displayed in everyday Media such as Websites, Magazines, Books and Video Games. Graphics are usually designed by drawing and then recreating that design on a computer, using a CAD (Computer aided design) software.
There are college or university courses in graphic engineering. For instance the Camosun College in British Columbia offers a Certificate in Engineering Graphics Technician. Information is also available from Wikipedia, or from your local public library.
