Engineering in Demand

REASONS TO CHOOSE ENGINEERING AS YOUR CAREER!
Engineering has been, is and will be a very evolving career path.

Engineers are in demand
Even in a tough job market, statistics show that engineers are in demand. Within six months of finishing university, 85% of engineering graduates go into paid work or further study.

This employability is set to continue as there is a looming demand for engineering skills. Our country needs to almost double the number of qualified engineers we produce between 2010 and 2020 to meet the requirements of the industry – from around 46,000 per year currently to 87,000 in 2020. A large increase in the number of apprentices is also needed. Over the course of this decade, those with engineering skills and qualifications will be well placed to get jobs – engineering companies are predicted to have 1.86 million job openings requiring engineering skills.

VARIED OPTIONS
There are a variety of routes into an engineering career. From Civil, Mechanical, Electrical and Computers this field of study also encompasses new and emerging fields of study that re in high demands like Mechatronics, Aerospace, petroleum and many more.
It’s not just for graduates. Advanced/Modern Apprenticeships are an expanding and popular route into engineering, combining study with employment to achieve technical certificates. Students can also move into the industry after studying a BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma, HND or Advanced Diploma.

 Great salary
Engineers are very well paid. Engineering graduates will also earn over 30% more in their working lifetime than the average graduate. Also, with new developments and new technologies their demand is rising and so are their pay packages.

Careers in engineering are typically in high demand and offer stable work environments and salaries. Individuals pursuing engineering should complete a Bachelors degree in the particular engineering field of interest and may benefit from summer internships in the field. Engineers can expect to work typical hours Mondays to Fridays in office settings, laboratories, manufacturing plants, construction sites and other areas on-site of services offered. Individuals pursuing a career in engineering should be highly analytical, able to problem solve and absorb large quantities of information.
