Engineering Careers

Engineers are still entering highly skilled positions with a bachelors degree. Electronics and civil engineering graduates will have the easiest job searches, but some of the more interesting new industrial developments are in the fields of mechanical and biomedical engineering. Materials engineers are developing composites that can replace steel in aircraft and firewalls in ships. Chemical engineering graduates can join the search for safe, organic pesticides. The highest paying option is petroleum engineer, but there are just a few thousand worldwide.
