      Hi Hannah,
      Engineers can do EVERYTHING! A degree in engineering teaches you how to think logically and solve problems. Couple that with some good mathematical skills and there’s nothing you can’t tackle as an engineer. Engineers are involved in the manufacture of your toothpaste, right the way to oil rigs out in the North Sea! There’s lots of different types of engineers (civil, mechanical, chemical, etc) – and they all have particular skills which help them do specialised jobs. So if you can think it, the chances are, it is something an engineer cna go off an do!
