      Not really. Usually, most countries try to stay at the same level when it comes to technologies. But of course there are things that are different, but they are not that noticeable.

      I would say it’s mostly the same. The only differences might be cultural, such as working hours, holidays etc…
      But engineers work with people all over the world, they also travel to share their ideas at conferences.
      The scientific method allows us that have a minimum standard that everyone works with.
      I work in Scotland, but I don’t think it’s very different from working in England apart from all the Scottish accents! 😀
      Engineering is very international, and once you have qualified as an engineer in the UK you are able to work anywhere in the world.
