Merging Engineer with Engineering
I think Engineering should be the main topic. An Engineer is (presumably) someone who practices Engineering. This seems to me to be "the right way round" and much better than saying that Engineering is what someone who calls him/herself an Engineer actually does. In English Engineering is quite unequivocal, whereas Engineer can also mean someone who drives a train or tends to a major piece of machinery.
