Study/Engineering Courses
Which Course for Which Career?
There is a vast array of
engineering courses to choose from. These include
courses that deal with the main branches of
engineering - chemical, civil, control, electrical,
electronic, manufacturing, marine, mechanical and
software. There are also courses based on industrial
disciplines like design and production, others that
deal with a specific industry-based area such as
motor sports or aeronautical engineering. With such
a huge range of courses on offer, choosing how much
to specialise will largely be governed by the career
you want to pursue.
