Engineers provide products and services that serve the needs of humanity. Engineers see problems and challenges as opportunities in disguise. Engineering graduates are highly sought after for their critical thinking, communication and team skills and are thus well compensated. Engineering degrees prepare students for the broadest number of vocational outcomes. In addition to a growing variety of engineering jobs, engineering students use their training as doctors, lawyers, teachers, professors, missionaries, military officers, business entrepreneurs and salespeople.
