Engineering is basically applied science. There are lots of jobs in engineering; many of them have "engineering" as part of their name; some don't. Examples include work in computer hardware, computer programming, architecture, economics, and many others. The Wikipedia article "List of engineering branches" lists quite a few, but there are probably more, or you can break them up into more branches.
Please note that any study and work in engineering will require a lot of mathematics and science. Some people like that; some don't.
There are basically an infinite number of types of engineers. Colleges are inventing new degrees every day. Like "nanoscale synthetic neuroprocessors engineer" or "biomimetic robotic engineer" or whatever.
Some of the more common ones that you will find as recognized fields, however, are:
Mechanical Engineer
Electrical Engineer
Electronics Engineer (subtly different)
Computer Engineer
Software Engineer
Aerospace Engineer
Aerodynamics Engineer
RF or Microwave Engineer
Systems Engineer
Industrial Engineer
Controls Engineer
Human Factors Engineer
Safety Engineer
Energetics Engineer (explosives, rockets, etc)
Nuclear Engineer
Thermal Engineer
Optics Engineer
Materials Engineer
Chemical Engineer
Engineering Biologist (blends Biology and engineering)
Cryogenic Engineer
Engineering Architect (does systems and component architecture descriptions)
and
Engineering Management (which is NOT really engineering)
I am sure there are many others as well.
Well to begin with I'm not entirely sure how the number 17 came up but there are many different branches or engineering to name a few...
Aeronautical - aerodynamics, plane and boat design ect.
Civil - infer-structure building (roads, buildings ect.)
Chemical (or Process) - product manufacture (chemicals, materials, consumer products, energy production... as well as many other field's)
Computer Systems - designing and operating computer mainframes as well as some software
Electrical - Power transfer, electrical circuits ect.
Engineering Science - modeling of systems (this is another broad area and can be anything from computer modeling of oil wells to climate change research)
Materials - specific to metals, alloys, polymers and there use and production
Mechanical - moving systems, engines, booms ect.
Mechatronics - a mixture of mechanical and software it is to do with mainly robotics
Software - Designing computer software
But those are only the broad areas there are many specialist engineering areas including
Biomedical
Photovoltaic
Nanotech
Agricultural
Genetic (some argue this is not a field of engineering but is instead Biological Sciences)
Structural (subset of civil)
Geological (another subset of civil)
Environmental (sometimes classed as a subset of civil)
Industrial (subset of chemical)
Mining (subset of chemical)
well that's 19... I hope that helps
Kinetic Engineer - Kinetic engineering focuses in on types of movement.
desighn enginer
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
Bridge Designers
Engineering schools are open to men and women. You can study process engineering or manufacturing engineering. There are many more choices. IT engineering is a good choice also.
A lot
One is electrical engineering.
Different kinds of engineering.
Kinetic Engineer - Kinetic engineering focuses in on types of movement.
what are some different types of mainframes
electrician
what are some different types of managerial careers
The Illinois Department of Transportation offers many different types of careers. Some of these careers include the careers that offer services pertaining to practice and promotion of road safety.
Civil engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and software engineering.
engineering
Engineering careers that start with the letter t:telecommunication engineerthermodynamics engineer
there are different types of engineers. as an audio engineer you would be one but many people associate engineering to architect type of careers but as long as you state that you are an audio engineer there shouldn't be any confusion. engineering just means that you have a skill, art or a certain profession that requires certain knowledge.
