The American Dream - the idea that with hard work, anyone can be
successful in any career - once drew thousands of immigrants to the
United States. The country has given the world countless success
stories in every sector of industry. But is that concept still
true? Can you still make a decent living pursuing any career?
Introducing Engineering America: Teaching a Penguin How to Fly, an
18-year-old's journey on discovering that not all college majors

trend of the century: Nobel Laureate in Physics Steven Weinberg,
Roe v. Wade Lawyer Sarah Weddington, University of Texas Associate

Daniel Hamermesh. America has so much talent but not enough of it
is pursuing STEM careers. This book hopes to prove to high school
students, college underclassmen and anyone looking to create a new
career that engineering is doable, needed, financially rewarding
and of course, most importantly, "cool."
