Job Description:

There are many different types of engineering. In this paragraph I will talk about reasons why I want to become an electrical engineer and what you do as an electrical engineer. You can find electrical engineers in many different industries. Electronics, power generation, industrial product and even more are all components of electrical engineering. Electrical engineers develop and manufacture electrical systems and networks. As an electrical engineer you require to work with other technical teams. Electrical engineers work in many different field like: industrial automation and robotics, speech, image and video signal

Mathematics, physics, chemistry and computer science are the courses which are very important when applying in university. I also need visual arts because I want to become computer hardware and software designer.

The perfect plan for me would be to graduate high school and apply for the university. The university that I want to get in is Ryerson University. Then I will try to get a job as an electrician so I can get job experience and work with technology. After I get enough experience I will try to get a job as a computer hardware and software designer.

University:

I was researching on universities I can apply for and Ryerson University seems like a perfect choice for me because it’s reasonably close to where I live and it has the perfect program for me. The program is called - Faculty of Engineering and Architectural Science. Requirements for applying: ENG4U/EAE4U English. The grades required are usually in the 70 percent range, will be determined subject to competition. There will be a lot of competition so I will obviously need to get much higher marks than 70%.

Specialized

I will have to be good in mathematics science, and I will also have to understand technical diagrams. I will also have to work on my ability to explain ideas clearly.

Earnings:

Different types of electrical engineers earn different amounts of money. Earnings range from c$44000 to c$82000 per year . When you start your salary will roughly be c$60000-c$62000 per year.

Working Conditions:

Electrical engineers work on average from 40 to 48 hours, but sometimes it depends on the project pileup. Electrical engineers usually work on computers and in the office. They sometimes work in groups and sometimes individually. It depends on the project. The vacation time for electrical engineers is 2-3 weeks.

Job Satisfaction:

I am excited about giving life to new ideas and I am also excited about working with other people who have same interests as me.

Job Stress:

I don’t like that electrical engineers have to sit at computers for a long time and also completing the projects on time is sometimes hard and stressful.

Other Pathways:

I will consider chemical engineering and mathematician as my other possible occupation. Electrical engineers calculate a lot, so it won’t be too hard to transfer from electrical engineer to
