top 10 highest Paying engineering jobs in the world I remember when I was about to choose an engineering course to study at a university I rejected mechanical engineering because I thought it will lead to a car mechanic I rejected civil engineering because I thought they only viewed bridges I thought to myself how often do we build bridges in this country I rejected Electrical Engineering because I thought they only work at the national electricity company fixing power failure with that I ended up with petroleum engineering living in an oil-producing country it's not hard to see how that would lead to a fulfilling career well I later learned that my assumption about this engineering fields you are all wrong you can actually build a successful career in any of this and most other engineering fields engineering is one of the fastest growing and highest-paid professions in the world so in today's blog we'll bring you the top ten highest paid engineering jobs while you are here consider subscribing to after-school Africa for more educated blogs like this counting down from number number ten civil engineer contrary to my teenage selves belief that civil engineers only beaut bridges this engineering field is broken down into sub disciplines structural probably the most prominent type of civil engineering it involves the structural design and analysis of buildings bridges towers tunnels flyovers offshore structures and other man-made projects construction deals with a planning a logistical side of beauty and construction work and a small business forecast environmental involves sanitary engineering including hazardous waste management's procedures and environmental remediation transportation involves designing monitoring and building transportation routes including roads highways railway systems canals airports ports and mass transit systems coastal similar to water resources engineering which focuses more on inland water management such as dams coastal engineering deals with erosion and water defenses particularly in vulnerable areas although these are the more prominent areas there are many other subspecialties aside from military engineering this is the oldest engineering discipline in the world number nine mechanical engineer well mechanical engineers don't necessarily end up under the hood fixing cars mechanical engineering is a very broad discipline and at its core is essentially the design and maintenance of anything that is composed of moving parts it requires a strong understanding and comprehension of the following key areas mechanics dynamics and thermodynamics material science structural analysis electricity it is the most common area of engineering and as such it is applicable across all industries and fields as a result mechanical engineers are highly employable by almost any large organization that owns factories or manufacturing plants number eight industrial engineer in a world where businesses are constantly looking to optimize production and manufacturing costs eliminates waste Funes and comply with environmental obligations industrial engineers can be worth their weight in gold taxed with identifying and implementing solutions to these problems they combine data analysis with hands-on knowledge and awareness of on-the-ground practices integrated machinery people materials and information into their processes as a result to be as adept in dealing with humans as they do anything mechanical number seven biomedical engineer biomedical engineering is seen as the bridge between medicine and conventional engineering using advances in biological science to develop machinery and tools that can help agonize monitor and treat medical conditions and injuries there are many large biomed companies competing in this lucrative market such as Johnson & Johnson and the medical divisions of both Siemens and GE number six electrical engineer again electrical engineers do a lot more than work with national electrical power companies fixing power failure electrical engineers has subject matter experts in all things electric employing their finely tuned skills to a wide variety of industries roles and locations they can be responsible for designing and running power stations as well as developing commercial products or designing and implementing control systems basically if there's an AC current involved then it's likely that an electrical engineer will have had something to do with it as a result electrical engineers are employable in nearly every industry and as technology advances so to do their job and salary prospects number five chemical engineer chemical engineers do more than spend their career in a chemistry laboratory although there's a demand in academia and research chemical engineers typically work for commercial businesses who seek to transform chemicals materials and energy sources into usable products such as plastics and other synthetics as well as traditional engineering skills such as science and mathematics the commercial nature of this job also demands a working knowledge of economics there are many large multinational companies that specialize in chemical engineer number four software engineer software engineers write test implement and updates the software code that is used by computers applications and other digital platforms as a result its importance to possess excellent programming skills as well as an aptitude for problem solving as we move further into the digital age software engineer jobs are increasing year-on-year and it is predicted to be one of the most common and important jobs of the near future although any company that runs its own databases requires software engineers they form the core working body of many innovative tech giants such as Apple Google and Facebook number three you computer and hardware engineer hardware engineer Lee not to be confused with software engineering is a combination of Electrical Engineering and computer science and is used to build the components that are used in computers network systems and other commercial products as our world becomes increasingly digital computer engineering is emerging as a sought-after and highly valued profession as an added bonus many of the companies who are seeking these skills are often named among the top companies to work for number two aerospace engineer aerospace engineering is basically concerned with the development and maintenance of either aircraft aeronautical or spacecraft astronautical due to its complex nature it's usually broken down and divided into four the engineering sub disciplines such as avionics aerodynamics and propulsion most of the large aircraft manufacturers such as Boeing and Airbus are far positions directly although it is also possible to work for parts specific companies such as GE or rolls-royce who build engines this is generally the second high Spain engineering jobs in the world the highest-paid engineering job in the world is petroleum engineer the discovery a recovery of natural oil and gas resources is perhaps the most lucrative business enterprise in the world in fact six of the top ten richest companies in the world by revenue are oil and gas companies and in such a high stakes industry energy companies rely primarily on the expertise of petroleum engineers Xbox on the physical behavior of water oil and gas petroleum engineers are compensated handsomely by the global energy companies the higher them the drawback is that petroleum engineers are restricted to a particular industry in conclusion careers in engineering are enormously varied with the opportunity to work in fascinating fields and get well-paid especially in the energy and IT sectors which engineering field do you have interest in let us know in the comments below if you are yet to comments to our blog there's a slightly good time to like until next time your success matters.thanks
