What is the scope of textile engineering?
Scope EVERY DAY the glossy and colourful newspaper supplements proclaim that fashion is big business, that the textile trade is booming. While what people wear is certainly one part of the huge industry known as textiles, there is a lot more to textile technology than fashion-haute or otherwise. The industry is peopled by many kinds of professionals, with many kinds of skills. The fashion designer is of course the most visible, as are the models who display a designer's products. But behind the designer, whose main tools are pen, paper, fabric and occasionally some computer software, is a large, multilayered enterprise. Among the key players are the technologists who create new materials for different needs, design and build equipment and create processes for making these materials. Dr T P Wagle, a professor of textile technology at the Bannari Amman Institute of Technology, notes that in terms of volume, the textile industry is the third largest, worldwide, after tourism and information technology. However, the number of textile engineers produced each year does not reflect the size of the industry. "Textile engineering offers decidedly more opportunities to graduates than most other engineering disciplines," says Dr Wagle. "Right now India accounts for only three per cent of the world's textile exports...our textile export activity can easily multiply by five times," he adds. Increased production of course implies increased opportunities for those trained in this field. While the handloom textile sector plays an important role in the Indian economy, there is a growing need for better materials and production processes in the mechanized sector too. Better fire resistant materials for uniforms, for instance, or absorbent fabric for medical use, or weather resistant packaging materials - these are the challenges that make textile engineering an exciting field, beyond the narrow confines of fashion. Textile engineering is concerned with the application of scientific principles and engineering practices to the wide-ranging aspects of textile processes, products and machinery, including synthetic fibers, interactions of fibres and fabrics with nature and with other mechanisms (such as conditions of use and storage), safety and health, pollution control and energy management. Textile engineers can choose to focus on a variety of areas within the field. Textile chemistry looks at how different materials may be combined to create a fabric that has certain properties, or at how existing fabrics may be treated in order to last longer, keep their colour longer, or stay uncreased. Design engineering looks at how to turn a paper design into a manufactured product, while quality engineering is concerned with monitoring processes to ensure product quality. As in other branches of engineering, students in this field study the basic physical sciences and mathematics, but with a larger focus chemistry than perhaps in other areas. The increased emphasis on producing ecologically friendly materials and using sustainable means of production challenge today's engineers to come up with creative materials and creative ways of producing them. The usual route to enter the field is by obtaining a B.Tech or B.E. in textile engineering. An engineering graduate obviously has the edge in the recruitment process, but students who have a diploma in textile technology or fashion technology also are in demand on the technical side, although they tend to start at lower salary levels. For most technical positions, a bachelor's degree is sufficient, but if one wants to move up in research and development, a master's is important. It also helps to combine technical and aesthetic skills, like N. Sham, who after getting his B.Tech, from Bannari Institute of Technology got a post-graduate diploma from the National Institute of Fashion Technology. He now works as a knitwear designer and draws a salary comparable to a software engineer. It is also possible to combine an interest in textiles with information science or robotics and focus one's attention on issues such as production systems or plant safety. Perhaps the most challenging and interesting areas in textile engineering are those that deal with research and development in new materials. Textile technologists work closely with chemical engineers to develop new materials for a variety of purposes - packaging materials that can keep food fresh longer, or fire-proof upholstery for vehicles, lighter or warmer fabric for space travel, better bandages for internal and external use...in our complex world, the needs keep increasing, calling for more and more ingenuity. Textile engineering has received relatively less attention from young people entering technical colleges - it lacks the gloss of some of the other fields, although the opportunities it presents are perhaps similar. As in any branch of applied science, the scope of opportunity lies in the way you look at the field, and what you choose to do with the knowledge you gain.

As you are the first to be served you will have the choice of whateevr it is you have been queueing for.
Where can one find listings for machine condition monitoring jobs?
One can find listings for machine condition monitoring jobs on websites made specifically to help people who are looking for jobs. One must first specify that they want such a job in the website's search, and wait for a list to come up.
Industrial Revolution in Philippines?
I'm just an ordinary high school student who is actually studying about the industrial revolutions.. and I've come to the fact that Philippines has no Industrial revolution yet. As of today, The Philippines is considered to be starting its industrialization, so there is no revolution yet no big changes has happen yet but when big changes happens with the industrialisation then it becomes a revolution of industry. But as of today, I believe that the Philippines are concentrating on agricultural industry which can lead to a better industry.... Read The industrial Revolution in England... as of now Philippines is improving its agricultural industry same thing happened in England when the industrial revolution started.. They started with their agriculture then it led to factories and then technology development.. so yeah you can say that Philippines is still like starting andengland and some other countries like Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, Which are already on technology development.

When will 3.0 hero factory come out?
lego said August first
Which come first science or technology?
Science first because you can't invent a technology that will improve and make the work easier without science.
