Engineering Jobs Overview
Where would the world be without skilled scientists and mathematicians to solve our most pressing problems? From agriculture to aerospace, engineers devise strategies to fix faulty systems and help industries operate more efficiently. Engineering jobs are available to college-educated candidates with the right credentials in their field.
As an engineer, you're responsible for creating the blueprint behind every major project and idea. The role of an engineer differs by industry. For example, as a civil engineer, you would plan and oversee infrastructural projects. As a mechanical engineer, you would work with machines, tools, engines, and mechanical and thermal sensors.
If you're ready to narrow your search, you can look for specific jobs in the following positions:
Engineer Education and Skills
The educational requirements you need for an engineering job depend on which industry you plan on working in. Most engineering roles require at least a bachelor's degree, but employers in some industries may prefer candidates who have a master's degree.

The National Society of Professional Engineers offers directions on how to obtain your PE license.
In addition to the requisite education, engineering employers usually look for the following skills and qualities:
- Analytical skills.
- Creativity and critical thinking skills.
- Organizational skills.
- Technical skills.
- Advanced math skills.
- Problem-solving skills.
- Good communication skills.
