Most Interesting Engineering Degree
Most will agree that computer technology will continue to expand at an exponential rate. In our opinion software engineers are still on the cutting edge of technology, the type of technology that will advance almost every major industry in the future. Software is intrinsically designed to assist with research and development. It should also be noted that out of all engineering disciplines listed software and computer engineers may find job transition the easiest as computers are now firmly entrenched in all industries and the demand for engineers will only increase as a result.
Highest Paid Engineering Degrees
While this will be subject to change over time and may even depend on your location and demand, if you are involved in the mining industry you will have the potential to be paid very well. Petroleum engineers and chemical engineers typically have the most scope for expansion into higher paying roles within their industries.
