noun
1. the art or science of making practical application of the knowledge of pure sciences, as physics or chemistry, as in the construction of engines, bridges, buildings, mines, ships, and chemical plants.

2. the action, work, or profession of an engineer.


engineering is the art and science of making things real. if you perform this art *and* science, then you are an engineer.
I developed software, but I would never call myself a software engineer. My major was in business. Ironically, I do call myself an artist. Yet I lack any study or training in art.
So there ya go!
