Number of deaths per country in 2004. http://www.nationmaster.com/ Conclusion Chagas’ disease is a prevalent endemic disease which has harmed many people in Latin American countries. However, there are many universities and research centers that are trying to educate as many people as possible, especially peasants in rural areas, to prevent the disease. This is not an easy job, but with the help of advertisements, people going to talk to rural schools, and recognition of the vector, it is possible to reduce the incidence of this disease. In addition, pharmaceutical companies are researching more drugs to treat the disease. Hopefully, they will find one that can completely cure the disease. Works Cited Bastien, Joseph W.

E n g i n e e r i n g D e s i g n P r o j e c t R e p o r t ENGR 1304: Foundations of Engineering I. The job of an engineer can be summarized in the following statement: Engineers solve problems. Each design problem has its own unique constraints and methods of solution, but engineers can learn from previously implemented solutions. What an engineer gleans from the solution (or even just the process) used by another engineer can bring about great leaps in technology. Therefore, clear communication of the engineering design process is key to the industry. In Matt’s report, he clearly spells out the steps of the design process and how his team addressed each one in a clear and systematic way. Future teams will not have the same design problem, but they can learn how to better approach their problem from this project summary. Mike Krall Design Project Written Report by Matthew J. Rush Design and Build Team: Matt Rush Melissa Brown Floyd Perkinson Emeka Umeofia Genesis Design and Innovation A Subsidiary of Krall Engineering, 1304 In the engineering world, any project that is to be successful must follow the design process; whether the project is simple or complex, the design process is an integral part of engineering. This process begins with a thorough identification of a problem for which a solution must be devised; once the problem has been clearly defined, possible solutions are discussed in a brainstorming session. After a number of possible solutions have been suggested, they are developed into clear and viable ideas, which are then scrutinized in order to choose the solution that best meets the criterion. The final step, once a solution is chosen, is to manufacture the design and apply it to real world problems. Below is a condensed list of the design process. 1. PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 2. PRELIMINARY IDEAS 3. REFINEMENT 4. ANALYSIS 5. DECISION 6. IMPLEMENTATION In Engineering 1304, taught by Mike Krall, one of the requirements is to design and build an engineering project from a list of projects submitted by college faculty.
