Engineer vs. Inventor
What is the difference between an engineer and an inventor? In both professions, new ideas are created, and old ones are improved upon. Is there a key difference between the two jobs? One difference could be the fact that an engineer needs to have a degree to be effective in the field, whereas an inventor could be an amateur with good ideas. But not all inventors are "amateurs"; look at Dean Kamen. So where do we draw the line? I would love to hear everyone's opinion.
