Engineer
(Redirected from Engineers)
Engineer is a professional who applies the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Engineers design materials, structures, and systems while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety, and cost.
Types of Engineers
There are several types of engineers, each specializing in a specific branch of engineering. Some of the most common types include:
- Civil Engineer: They design and supervise large construction projects, including roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
- Mechanical Engineer: They design, develop, build, and test mechanical and thermal sensors and devices, including tools, engines, and machines.
- Electrical Engineer: They design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacturing of electrical equipment, such as electric motors, radar and navigation systems, communications systems, or power generation equipment.
- Chemical Engineer: They apply the principles of chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems that involve the production or use of chemicals, fuel, drugs, food, and many other products.
- Software Engineer: They apply the principles of software engineering to the design, development, maintenance, testing, and evaluation of the software and systems that make computers or anything containing software work.
Education and Training
Becoming an engineer typically requires a bachelor's degree in an engineering specialty, but some basic research positions may require a graduate degree. Engineers offering their services directly to the public must be licensed. Continuing education to keep current with rapidly changing technology is important for engineers.
Job Outlook
Employment of engineers is projected to grow 4 percent from 2014 to 2024, adding about 65,000 new jobs. Among engineering specialties, several are projected to grow even faster than the 4-percent growth for engineers or the 6.5-percent growth for all occupations: biomedical engineers (23.1 percent), environmental engineers (12.4 percent), and civil engineers (8.4 percent).
