The video introduces Squeaks, who is unsure how to spend his afternoon. The host explains how engineers solve problems and introduces various types of engineering, such as aerospace, civil, computer, environmental, and electrical. The video then outlines the engineering problem-solving process, which includes defining the problem and brainstorming solutions. Squeaks and the host create a spinner to decide on an activity, demonstrating the engineering process in action.
