Transferable skills
The great thing about an engineering degree is that it can open doors for you to pursue careers in a wide variety of different fields. The core skills of an engineer – scientific expertise, mathematical proficiency, and problem-solving abilities – are easily transferable to many other industries, including finance and law.
An engineer’s advanced mathematical skills are very useful in investment banking for example, while your technical expertise can be indispensable when working in regulatory or patent law.
