Engineering is everywhere…Almost everything you eat, wear, use
and like to do involves engineering.
From everyday things like your
mobile, computer and clothes to
medicine, space, national security
and renewable energy
… to tackling climate change,
providing clean drinking water or
ensuring sustainable food supplies.

Design, develop, produce…
Engineering’s about…
• Finding out what people need, developing
ideas and seeing how products can be
made at a good price• Developing the product on time
and running tests to make sure it’s safe
and reliable• Producing something that makes our lives
better… whether that’s a new games
console, high-tech sports equipment or
quicker, greener and safer travel

What’s in it for you?• Loads of different types of roles – such
as:Design, development, research, buying
(engineering solutions) and management of
engineering (projects and people)
• Opportunities to travel, work in different
environments and meet interesting
people• Plus the money isn’t bad either…
–For those who go to university, engineering and
technology graduate starting salaries are
approximately 20 % higher than the average
graduate starting salary.
–Engineering technicians also earn, on average,
more than other STEM* technicians – in fact they
top the league table of STEM technician salaries.
*Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
