3 facts about your dream job in Engineering & Technician
What does engineering actually mean?
Before we start with our facts, let’s first clarify what exactly is hidden behind the term engineering. Engineering refers to the engineering sciences. Engineers are specialists who work in a technical field and develop solutions for technical problems.
So much for a basic understanding. But now let’s move on to the 3 interesting facts about engineering.
The most popular engineering professions are electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and industrial engineering.
Basically, the engineering sector can be divided into 8 sub-sectors, in which there are different specializations and professions:
- Construction, surveying, building technology and architecture
- Energy and electrical engineering
- Machine and vehicle technology
- Metal processing
- Plastics production and chemical industry
- Raw material production and extraction
- Technical research and production control
- Computer science
But let’s take a closer look at the most popular engineering professions:
- Electrical engineer: Here you will focus on electrical processes and applications. For example, you will be responsible for testing electrical faults, commissioning, maintenance work as well as developing and controlling electronic circuits and automation projects.
- Mechanical engineer (m/f/d): As a mechanical engineer (m/f/d), you will focus in particular on the design and production of machines. Everything revolves around the planning, development, design and construction of devices, machines and systems.
- Industrial engineer (m/f/d): As an industrial engineer (m/f/d), you will combine engineering and economics. Your tasks will include project support, process optimization and the planning of production processes.
Computer science is the most popular degree program in engineering
To become an engineer, you generally need a technical engineering degree. In principle, a Bachelor’s degree is sufficient to start your career, but a Master’s degree is often required, especially in research and development.
Distance learning is particularly suitable for further education.
The most popular courses in the 2019/2020 winter semester at universities in Germany included computer science, mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, electrical engineering and civil engineering.
Engineers have very good prospects for the future.
Once you have successfully completed your studies, you can be sure of finding a well-paid job quickly. This is because engineers will be in high demand in Germany now and in the coming years. Between 2015 and 2029 alone, over 700,000 engineers will leave the profession. That’s why you have the best chances of finding a great job with your engineering degree.
