Engineering Haiku

Below is a compilation of engineering haiku written by my students at Utah State University.

Make a new product

Something people will want and need

Become very rich

D. Hoyt

It starts with a mer

Then builds into a long chain

Behold, polymer!

T. VonNiederhausern

Stretch, strain, push, pull, press

Elastic deformation

Great until it breaks

T. VonNiederhausern

Modelling systems

Ceramics, Alloys, Plastics

Opportunity

G. Brimley

The hip gave way fast

The student discovered quick

Glass not good implant

J. Camire

Bio-engineers

From shiney teeth to fake legs

What are you thinking?

E. Thompson

The hip gave way fast

The student discovered quick

Glass not good implant

J. Camire

Stainless steel is good

Titanium is better

Gold is expensive

S. Broby

Polymers are chains

Polymers are improtant

Polymers are good

S. Broby

Titanium galls

And platinum costs too much

Better use pine

R. Thompson

School is out for now

I finally made it through

Until next year chow

E. Griffiths

I made E. coli glow

Ampicillin not a threat

Makes my E. coli fit

D. Olsen

Metals, Plastics, cool

Implants, devices and such

What is your major

S. Parker

Fibroblasts are cool

Mesenchymal cells are fun

I'm glad school is done

R. Angus
