SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the perception that certain countries offer more engineering job opportunities, particularly for electrical engineers (EE). Participants emphasize that the portability of engineering specialties varies, with EE being more globally recognized compared to civil engineering. The conversation highlights the importance of selecting a country based on job availability and the potential need to learn a new language to enhance employability in that region. Ultimately, the choice of engineering specialty significantly influences job prospects internationally.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of engineering specialties, particularly electrical engineering (EE) and civil engineering.
  • Knowledge of global job markets and their impact on engineering careers.
  • Familiarity with language learning and its relevance to job opportunities abroad.
  • Awareness of the factors influencing job portability in engineering fields.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research countries with high demand for electrical engineers (EE).
  • Explore language learning resources relevant to countries with robust engineering job markets.
  • Investigate the job portability of various engineering specialties.
  • Analyze trends in global engineering employment and migration patterns.
USEFUL FOR

Engineering students, job seekers in the engineering field, and professionals considering relocation for better career opportunities will benefit from this discussion.

I have read a lot of threads and talk to a few engineers and I hear a lot of engineers say that they would move to a "better" country for engineers. I am going to school now to become an engineer and I was wondering if there is any truth to this, that other country are better for engineers. I want to learn a new language and depending on what country has a lot of engineering job will help decide what language to learn. I also wanted to know if the engineers are saying this out of aggravation for having a hard to finding a job or is this something I should look into. Thank You very much for your help.

What specialty in engineering? EE is more "portable" than Civil, for instance. Have you declared a major (specialty) yet?
 
I don't know yet but I was thinking EE. But I have not declared a major yet.
