The Top Engineering Television Shows
We all know that engineers are far too busy working on the latest projects and getting to grips with ever-changing technology to actually sit down and watch the idiot-box. Well, perhaps that’s not strictly true – we all need a break sometimes. And who doesn’t like to kick back now and again with the remote in one hand and a light (or not-so-light) beverage in the other? So, without further ado let’s take a look at some top TV shows that engineers will love (in no particular order).

Top 10 Cities for Environmental Engineering Jobs
Environmental engineers design structures and systems to protect the natural environment and promote sustainable living. They can also perform work to mitigate the environmental damage caused by large industrial operations such as pulp mills, mines, and oil-extraction sites. It is a discipline of engineering that can be studied at most engineering schools and can also be categorised as a sub-discipline of civil engineering.

10 Characteristics of Successful Engineers [Infographic]
Engineers are the inventors, designers, analysers and builders of our modern age. They create the machines, structures and systems we use on a daily basis. The constrains of physics, the confines of the manufacturing technology of the modern age, the limitations imposed by current material properties, requirements in terms of health and safety and cost: all of these are things that engineers must take into account when designing whatever it is they're working on.

5 Ways Engineers are Shaping the Future
The future is just a stone’s throw away, but one thing is certain: Engineers play a major role in shaping the world of tomorrow. By building the essential infrastructure upon which society depends, they turn engineering knowledge into action, traversing the path from concept to practical creation. Technologies are changing at such a fast pace that we cannot say with certainty what our world will look like 10 or 20 or 30 years from now, but we do know that whatever new wonders appear, engineers will have played a major role in shaping the future.

Why Study Energy Engineering in Germany
Although its branding as ‘The World's First Major Renewable Energy Economy’ may be slightly generous, Germany is, without question, one of Europe’s leading forces in the ‘renewable revolution’. Throughout its time in office, the CDU has maintained an ambitious green agenda, and Merkel's long-standing international engagement in cutting emissions has earned her the nickname the ‘Climate Chancellor’.

Top Online Master’s Degrees in Mechanical Engineering
More and more people are turning to the internet for education, partly because of the technological modern world, but mostly because they have to during coronavirus isolation. The technical fields, such as mechanical engineering, are being forced to modernize and make their courses available for distance learners. Some might think that it’s impossible to gain a degree in mechanical engineering online because of the traditional hands-on nature of the profession which often involves direct oversight from the instructor.

Does STEM Have a Problem with Women?
While in recent decades women’s participation in the labour market has significantly increased, wide gender gaps still persist. Broadly speaking, women’s working conditions tend to be worse, particularly remuneration; glass ceilings often block career progress, stifling motivation; and achievement goes less recognised, denting morale. Job opportunity, too, is restricted, some areas of work demarcated, implicitly, if not explicitly, as ‘men’s only’. Make no mistake: equality of the sexes is still some way off.

Can You Work As An Engineer And Travel Full Time?
Remote work can save you $7000 a year because of not having to spend so much on commuting, food, clothing and childcare. Many 'location independent' workers decide to spend this saved money on travel, since they are able to work from anywhere and have always wanted to see more of the world. Does this sound like your dream job? The problem is that not all jobs can be done remotely. Luckily for you, however, engineering work absolutely can. Demand for trained engineers is increasing, and companies know they can cut costs and increase output and employee retention by offering remote work. You just have to know how to find it.
