What are the Engineering related hot jobs/ fields for the future meaning, 5-10 years down the line.? Chemical Engineering is probably the best future because of the opportunities in both the oil industry and Pharma. I am an Electrical Engineer and I wouldn't recommend going into that. Most of the jobs have been outsourced to China. Civil Engineering might not be that bad, its harder to outsource. Probably the best thing to do is what interests you, not what you think might pay the best down the road. You never know what will be hot in 10 years. But if you don't like what you are doing, the money is not much solice. If you like what you do, chances are you will be good at it. The money will follow. engineering school placement offices have this sort of information -- as best it can be known. if you aren't enrolled yet -- ask at the colleges you applied to, or intend to apply to. GL Engineering fields to solve global warming. There are many here. Environmental sciences, photo-voltaic onversion, nuclear engineering, etc. Computer related field are expected to be the fast growing field in the next decade only behind Nursing/Medical field. So I would highly recommend Computer Engineering (what I'm doing in college) as there is a huge demand right now and will continue to be for a good while. Hot fields in engineering would be: Mechanical, Medical-Biomedical, Environmental and Civil engineering. I guess by then the IT sector would have converged into all these fields. |
