Introduces a variety of careers available in the field of engineering.

"The push is on for students to embrace STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) disciplines, first in school and then in the workplace. This series highlights the career possibilities within each subject area under the STEM umbrella. The focus of this title lands squarely on career fields such as computing, engineering technology, medicine, environmental sustainability, packaging science, and automotive service. Jobs that make use of advanced technologies in the course of the workday, such as nursing and land surveying, are included as well. Completing the coverage are chapters on landing a first tech job and advancing one's career" -- Provided by publisher.

"Science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) careers are believed to be the best opportunities for young people today, and this resource outlines the best options for those who are interested in the sciences. This volume covers several career clusters, including environmental science, biofuels, hydrology, genetics, and agriculture, among others. It also outlines what students need to do to prepare for a STEM career in science as well as the future of these exciting new areas. This title is a perfect resource for young people who have a deep interest in the sciences and are looking for the best opportunities" -- Provided by publisher.

"Students interested in math are often adept problem-solvers with essential critical thinking skills that can complement countless other fields of study and that are useful in a wide range of careers. Readers will learn how a background in math can be channeled into real-world opportunities in high interest areas such as architecture, physics, astronomy, engineering, financial analysis, economics, and even sports analysis. This volume also guides math students through the process of finding and applying for jobs and describes the numerous possibilities for continued personal and professional development in the careers available to them" -- Provided by publisher.
