Engineer (Abk.: Engineer) is the job title for college graduates Ingenieurwissenschaften.Der term decreases/goes back on Sebastien le Pestre de Vauban, who master of building of fortresses (boss you genius) of Ludwig XIV., and derived from latin title "ingeniarius" (masters of building of fortresses), which also Leonardo da Vinci carried. Since that 19. Century changed in the English one the job title of the "Engineers" from the machinist (machine operator) to the university graduate with high responsibility, specialized knowledge and creativity. The range of the engineer services develops at present just as dynamically

Engineers are active in nearly all ranges of the economy. The occupation possibilities in the enterprises are predominantly the ranges consultation, development, planning, manufacturing, measurement (chemical and physical investigations), appraisal production, programming, prototyping (product development) selling, marketing, control (production, process) construction, technical documentation, Controlling and in the management. In addition engineers work as independent entrepreneurs, as employees in engineer's offices or at authorities.

Engineers are characterised by analytic intellectual capacity, good theoretical and application orientated expertise, connected with practice-oriented and on short term conversion considered proceedings; in addition they have a far-strewn good technical general education.

The industry is based mainly on engineer-moderate conversion of technical knowledge, as for example telecommunications, the KFZ industry, the computer engineering, the power supply, etc.)

Engineers are the occupational group with the largest participation in inventions.

Country-specific information

Germany

The training as engineer and leading the job title "engineer" are nationallegally regulated. Engineers are trained at universities (universities and professional schools) scientifically and call themselves thereafter engineering graduate.

 

Since 1992 the university lends the academic degree with university designation: Engeneering graduate (professional school) (Dipl. - engineer (FH)) or engeneering graduate (Dipl. - engineer Univ.) and/or TH/TU and/or engeneering graduate (Dipl. - engineer). After a successful graduation the far academic degree doctor engineer (Dr. - engineer) is lent.

Graduates of nationally recognized vocational academies receive a national conclusion designation as Dipl. - to engineer (BA) and/or engineer (vocational academy).

Graduates of earlier schools of engineering and/or their predecessor mechanisms can after nationallegal regulation the before times lent national designation engineer (degree.) resume or than national designation Dipl. - engineer call themselves. At nationally recognized mountain academies or mountain schools trained operating leaders (mining industry) lead likewise the job title "engineer".

Since that time the job title "engineer" is protected and only at graduates of appropriate mechanisms is only lent in the Federal Republic of Germany since beginning of the 1970er years legally. Before (and to be allowed also further) also persons without an appropriate engineering education, but with relevant professional experience of many years were allowed to lead the condition designation "engineer".

Engineers are in the respective professional associations or also specializedspreading, for example in the association of German engineers (VDI), organized.

A "advisory engineer" must determined legally festgeschriebe defaults fulfill and into the list of "advisory engineers" of the chamber of engineers of its respective Land of the Federal Republic register themselves. The job title advisory engineer for a freelance active engineer is nationallegally protected.

Austria

In Austria the designation engineer is also a condition designation, which is lent by the Federal Ministry for economics and work.

A condition for this is the maturing and diploma examination of a Austrian higher one technical institute or a higher one country and forest-economical institute, as well as a three-year relevant technical activity in the field of activity, where the maturing and diploma examination were taken. Without maturing and diploma examination, but with proven equivalent expertise, the condition designation can be lent also after eight years practice. Comparably the "nationally examined technician" in Germany without maturity examination.

Additionally gives it in addition, diploma HTL engineer, the six years practice, as well as a thesis (diploma) and a commissional diploma examination placing must. This designation and the associated occupation-legal rights are recognized in the European Union (European union). The next stage places the graduate of the professional school with the academic degree "engeneering graduate Fachhochschule" (Abk. Dipl. - engineer (FH)) . The additive "FH" is to be always led due to the specialized higher education law.

Besides engineer with university conclusion exists in Austria. The graduates of the technical courses of studies (technical ones) of the universities the academic degree becomes engeneering graduate (Abk.: Dipl. - engineers or DI) on master level lent.

Trivia

  • "I was the highest director/conductor of each work and all workshops stood under my instruction. I was not largely powerful over all terms, always and had I was the custodian of all custodians and never erred." Grave inscription of an engineer, who was involved with the building of pyramids in Egypt.
  • "Engineer is too heavy nothing" after Heinrich Seidel; also admits as: "The is nothing too swear"
  • "The design is the language of engineer"
  • Slogan of all air and space travel engineers: "The color gives stability to the airplane!"
  • Slogan of all cyberneticists: "Wars we already regulated!"
