Question:
Hello, I was wondering exactly what kind of things to engineers do? Is it all electrical stuff or are there other things too?


Replies:
Of course engineers do many different things including technical management. I have even known a few engineers who have gone to law and medical school and are now doctors and lawyers. Engineering for some is a stepping stone to another career, with a solid foundation in science and mathematics - especially important in today's world of high technology.
