 Choosing a profession. 

I thought of the variety careers to follow, that is possible with the diploma of an engineer. There is no one typical career path for civil engineers. Most engineering graduates start with jobs of low responsibility, and as they prove their competence, they are given more and more responsible tasks. Engineers can do analysis or design work, or management of more complex design projects, or management of other engineers. Engineers are in high demand at banks, financial institutions and management consultancies because of their analytical skills. They are also at a high demand in the IT sector for the same reason.

Engineer is one of the most widely required professions today. Being employed as an engineer, you are responsible for the creative application of scientific principles to design or develop structures, machines, apparatus, manufacturing processes, or works using them singly or in combination. They work in every state, in small and large cities, and in rural areas and in different branches of engineering. Engineers design machinery, products and systems.

Having learnt how to apply theories and principals of science and mathematics I will be able to solve practical technical problems. This speciality, called ‘narrow specialization’ is unique, challenging but very important.

Having been educated in this sphere, you may be employed in industry and business. Successful participation in International business promises improved quality of life and a better society, even leads to a more peaceful world. I like to work as part of a team and think that I’m creative, analytical, and detail-oriented. 

While studying at the university I have a thorough training in various general and specific subjects, such as Geodesy, Higher Mathematics, Drawing and so on. I actively take part in student conferences and carry out engineering projects. Knowing extra information in the field of engineering I can apply my knowledge to everyday life.

This is one of the most important and wide-spread professions. Being able to develop their own ideas and turn those new ideas into reality a qualified engineer can help our society to stay in a dynamic living environment. Inventiveness requires of engineers that they dare to break the accepted rules and conventions, and critically examine the actual state of things.
