Engineering
is the bedrock subject for many of today’s
most important and largest industries. Put simply,
engineers
research and develop solutions
to technical problems by applying the theories
and principles of science and mathematics. Industries
include:
• Aerospace
• Agricultural
• Biomedical
• Chemical
• Civil
• Computer Hardware
• Electrical and Electronics
• Environmental
• Industrial
• Materials
• Mechanical
• Mining and Geological
• Nuclear
• Petroleum
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
in 2002, 1.5 million engineers were employed
in the US.
In order to become a properly certified engineer,
you would need more than an associate engineering
degree. The associates engineering degree gives
you many engineering fundamentals without going
into the details that you would for a bachelor’s
degree or masters.
This degree is perfect for those working in
the mid levels of any of the above industries
that want to switch to another industry at the
same level. Engineering training gives you the
core principles that unite the technological
industries. Living in an era where job stability
isn’t quite what it used to be, having
that core training is not a bad idea at all,
even if it isn’t enough to make you an
actual engineer.
The online aspect of the degree goes further
in making an associates engineering degree a
good way to round out a technological career.
Online degrees save you the trouble of having
to commute to a community college or university.
Your life on the job or with your family shouldn’t
be nearly as distracted and pressured as pursuing
a regular, offline degree.
And beyond giving you a leg up on the competition
for technological jobs in general, an associates
engineering degree can also be the first half
of getting the full-fledged bachelor’s
degree. If you should decide a little later in
your career to become a certified engineer, you
would already be on your way there.
