Earning Potential vs. Minimum Wage Engineers have high earning potentials over the course of their career. Since 2000, engineering salaries have increased by ~35%. Years AFTER H.S. Graduation (based on 1998 salary data)
Engineering Disciplines Major Disciplines Other Disciplines Mechanical Electrical Chemical Civil Industrial Petroleum Automotive Aerospace Agricultural Biomedical Computer Environmental Materials Nuclear Robotics Safety
Mechanical Engineering Concerned with design, manufacture & operation of a wide range of components, devices, or systems: microscopic parts (nanotechnology) to gigantic gears heating, ventilation, refrigeration manufacturing equipment (tanks, motors, pumps) laser technology biomedical applications automotive industry computer-aided design, automation, robotics Broadest of all the engineering disciplines in its range of activities
Chemical Engineering Applying chemistry to the solution of practical problems Gasoline Plastic Energy (natural gas, oil heating, coal) Adhesives Clothing Building Materials
Electrical Engineering Play a role in almost everything we interact with on a daily basis. They design smaller, cheaper, and better: cell phones computers power systems appliances robots Apply specialized skill to the design, manufacture, application, installation, and operation of electrical products and systems.
Civil Engineering Create solutions to cope with: air quality issues decaying cities, roadways and bridges clogged airports and highways polluted streams, rivers and lakes Design and Develop Solutions to use oil/gas as a means to support our society and dependence on fossil fuel energy.
Industrial Engineering Design data processing systems Integrate activities of finance, engineering and management Develop systems for planning, cost analysis, production and quality of products Stresses design, improvement, and installation of integrated systems of people, material, and equipment for the effective production of goods or services in all types of industries
Petroleum Engineering Concerned with drilling, transportation, storage, and discovery of a wide range systems ranging from Extraction Rigs, Drilling Rigs, and Storage systems: How to get oil from the ground How to store oil in reservoirs Operation of Pumps or Well Heads Extraction Technology Future Applications automotive industry Broadest of all the engineering disciplines in its range of activities
