Electronics Engineers
Overall job opportunities in engineering are expected to be good, but will vary by specialty. A bachelors degree is required for most entry-level jobs. Starting salaries are significantly higher than those of college graduates in other fields. Continuing education is critical for engineers wishing to enhance their value to employers as technology evolves.
On average, Electronics Engineers earn $ 81,050 per year
Job Opportunities for Engineering Careers are
expected to:
Increase as fast as the average.
Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering
Architects
Architectural and Civil Drafters
Engineers apply the principles of science and mathematics to develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between scientific discoveries and the commercial applications that meet societal and consumer needs.
Engineers typically enter the occupation with a bachelors 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
About 37 percent of engineering jobs were found in manufacturing industries and another 28 percent were in the professional, scientific, and technical services sector, primarily in architectural, engineering, and related services. Many engineers also worked in the construction, telecommunications, and wholesale trade industries.
