Studying
Engineering at either undergraduate or postgraduate
level is not an easy option. It involves a great deal
of hard work and determination, but for those who decide
to go down this route the opportunities and benefits
are numerous. Especially in terms of employment and
job prospects globally.

The American Way
The
United States offers international students a wide variety
of study options. There are several thousand colleges
and universities, differing greatly in size, location,
teaching style, and type of degrees offered. Even in
a specialized field such as engineering, you will have
many options to consider. |

Electrical
Engineering
A Stimulating Challenge
Engineers
belong to the greatest profession in the world, responsible
for almost everything that makes life worth living -
from leisure activities to medical treatment, mobile
communications to modern transport systems. Within the
wide boundaries of the electrical engineering profession,
there are thousands of challenging activities, in areas
such as research, development, design, manufacture and
operation of products and services. Activities which
provide stimulating intellectual challenges with diverse
and varied tasks, inevitably involving deadlines, and
all added to the satisfaction of real output or delivery. |
Civil
Engineering
Building the Future
Civil
engineers have one of the world's most important jobs:
they build our quality of life. With creativity and
technical skill, civil engineers plan, design, construct
and operate the facilities essential to modern life,
ranging from bridges and highway systems to water treatment
plants and energyefficient buildings. Civil engineers
are problem solvers, meeting the challenges of pollution,
traffic congestion, drinking water and energy needs,
urban redevelopment and community planning. |

Chemical
Engineering
A Degree Solution
Chemical
Engineers are employed around the globe in a world class,
largely graduate, profession. As a career, Chemical
Engineering provides new and exciting opportunities
for individual enterprise and career flexibility with
rapid progress to responsible and financially rewarding
jobs. |
Postgraduate
Study
Mechanical Engineering
In today's competitive recruitment market mechanical
engineering graduates eager to succeed and climb the
career ladder have to think carefully about the best
way to improve their employment prospects and keep abreast
of today's cutting edge technology. One option is to
embark on a postgraduate course in engineering in the
UK. |

Agricultural
Engineering in the USA
Agricultural
engineers apply their knowledge of biological and
physical sciences and engineering principles to the
production and delivery of food and fiber to the world
under safe working conditions while protecting the
environment. Due to advancements in biotechnology
and growing concerns over environmental quality there
has been an increase in the number of opportunities
for agricultural engineers in areas such as the design
of fermentation and cell culture processes. The rapidly
expanding global economy will result in a significant
increase in national and multinational companies and
government agencies hiring university/college graduates
for employment in a global market. |
UK
provides
national support for the teaching of Materials
and Engineering
Since the Stone Age the development of
materials has been fundamental to the advancement of civilisation.
Without an understanding of materials we could not fly
the Atlantic, surf the internet or replace a heart
valve. Tomorrow's developments await further progress. |

Why
Materials Science?
I
have been set the onerous task of helping you, a
potential student, on choosing a field of study.
This is a decision that will influence the rest
of life and so should not be taken lightly. It is
not possible to predict what specific skills will
be in demand over your 40 to 50 year working life,
so may I suggest you choose a "Core" rather
than a specialist skill and be flexible as opportunities
emerge. |
