Career Prospects in Chemical Engineering

Chemical engineers design, develop, and optimize processes and plants, operate them, manage personnel and capital, and conduct research for new developments. Chemical Engineering graduates can find job opportunities in a wide range of areas such as processing, manufacturing research & development, Government, finance, commercial and teaching. Many significant opportunities exist for chemical engineers in the offices of international chemical and petrochemical companies, in other less traditional industries such as microelectronics and plastics, and in areas of environment, safety and financial analysis. Many chemical engineers work in or operate their own consultancy company.

Career Prospects in Computer Engineering

As computer applications expand, systems analysts, computer scientists, and database administrators are projected to be among the fastest growing occupations.
Relevant work experience and a bachelor's degree are prerequisites for many jobs; for more complex jobs, a graduate degree is preferred.
Computer engineering focuses on the design, analysis and application of the computer system. It bridges the gap between computer science and electronic engineering and is the link between hardware and software. Like all other engineering disciplines, computer engineering is a practical field intended to solve real world problems, by combining ideas from engineering with basic sciences.

Career prospects for computer engineering graduates are excellent. Manufacturing industry, finance, telecommunications, commerce and government all rely heavily on computers and increasingly need the services of computer engineers to design, develop and support computer applications. Because of their excellent training, computer engineers can choose from a wide range of career paths that include network specialists and designers, system analyst and programmers.

Career Prospects in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering

Power generation, wireless communications, robotics and computer multimedia are just some examples of complex systems that require the knowledge and skills that form the basis of modern Electronics Engineering. It is often the public perception that technology solves problems, but it is actually the skill and ingenuity of the engineer that is the real driving force. It is this skill and ingenuity coupled with the technical knowledge that leads to the great range of career paths open to our graduates.
