Your complete guide to a bachelor's in Engineering & Technology

Everything you need to know about studying a bachelor's in Engineering & Technology

Engineering and Technology is a broad set of disciplines that deal with everything connected to the design, manufacture, and maintenance of infrastructure, devices, tools, and information systems used by people on a daily basis. Think about cars, TVs, smartphones, electrical power grids, mechanical bridges — all these machines and tools make our life more comfortable, and they wouldn’t have existed without the wonderful work of engineers and technology enthusiasts.

These are some of the most popular Engineering subdisciplines: Aerospace Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Robotics, etc.

Engineering and Technology degrees will help you develop the knowledge and skills required to shape the future of technology, industrial design, and applied sciences. Engineers take the latest scientific discoveries and turn them into cutting-edge technology, using the language of exact sciences like Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry.

Some of the challenges engineers face may include adapting city infrastructures to fit growing populations, optimising maintenance processes, replacing manual work with automation, or creating new durable and more efficient materials. Elon Musk is a great example of how engineering can fix complex issues, in his case, pollution and space exploration. Just like he encouraged the idea of a hyperloop transportation system, you can take the initiative and come up with your own vision. What great device do you have in mind that can completely revolutionise the world? What tech idea will you share that will make life better for everyone?

Engineering and Technology graduates find jobs in fields like Industrial Design, Aerospace Engineering, Civil Engineering, Biomedical Engineers, and many others. Depending on your specialization you can find versatile jobs in farms, car and airplane manufacturing, big pharma, construction companies, tech companies, environmental NGOs and more.
