Are you detail-oriented? Do you try to figure out how things work or enjoy problem-solving?
Engineers work in virtually every industry. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics workers do scientific research in laboratories or the field. Some will plan or design products and systems. Or, you might support scientists, mathematicians, or engineers as they do their work.
