| agricultural engineering A discipline concerned with developing and improving the means for providing food and fiber for mankind's needs | engenharia agrícola |
| bio- and medical engineering | biónica |
| biological engineering | engenharia biológica |
| biological engineering The application of engineering principles and techniques to living organisms. It is largely concerned with the design of replacement body parts, such as limbs, heart valves, etc. | engenharia biológica |
| chemical engineering | engenharia química |
| chemical engineering The branch of engineering concerned with industrial manufacture of chemical products. It is a discipline in which the principles of mathematical, physical and natural sciences are used to solve problems in applied chemistry. Chemical engineers design, develop, and optimise processes and plants, operate them, manage personnel and capital, and conduct research necessary for new developments. Through their efforts, new petroleum products, plastics, agricultural chemicals, house-hold products, pharmaceuticals, electronic and advanced materials, photographic materials, chemical and biological compounds, various food and other products evolve | engenharia química |
| civil engineering The planning, design, construction, and maintenance of fixed structures and ground facilities for industry, transportation, use and control of water or occupancy | engenharia civil |
| civil engineering method | métodos de engenharia civil |
