GATE 2010 :- Engineering As a Career

Engineering as a career option is finalized at a stage when the kids are not mature enough to decide. Usually, their career choice is based on the preference of their parents, and obviously those giving the advice are not engineers themselves, nor do they have the entire experience of engineering as a profession. It is quite obvious that while opting for a profession, children themselves are not aware of what engineering as a career is all about.

In the field of engineering, vision and skills know no boundaries. Students have to accept challenges as opportunities to prove themselves. For instance, being an aerospace engineer, you might get a chance of working on cryogenic technology which is highly required for the country’s advancement in the space research field or being a civil engineer, you may get an opportunity to make earthquake resistant houses. Likewise, being an electrical engineer, you might have an opportunity to develop superconductors and so on.

There are students who appear for GATE, so as to open avenues for themselves, for getting admission in M.Tech. Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering, acts as the gateway to get admission in M.Tech, M.Arch and other Masters Degree programmes. A masters Degree in Engineering offers an entire new horizon to the students, as they can opt to the path of research and development.

Rewarding profession

As a student you have to be open to all these opportunities to make way in the arena of top-class engineers. Similarly, all the streams of engineering offer so many opportunities where creativity and ingenuity act as the tools to alleviate the challenges and come out as the winner. Working as an engineer will offer job satisfaction and most importantly, the job is subjected to a lot of growth. After all, everyone has to spend a large part of life at work station and you need to deliver contentment and satisfaction so as to grow in a better way.

Engineering offers a varied array of career possibilities. From the design of fighter planes to boring holes in earth in search of petrochemicals to make way to Mars, Engineers definitely play an important role in success of human story. Working as an engineer requires intelligence and creativity which in turn requires the students to utilize their mental faculties as compared to professions where practice helps in performing the job. Engineering is about making things work, yes, it may seem to be challenging, but then it’s the engineers who make it possible in an efficient and effective way.
