About 23% of new jobs for engineers are projected to be for civil engineers, the largest engineering occupation. Mechanical and industrial engineers are second and third in projected job growth among engineers. Together, these two occupations accounted for about 36% of new jobs for engineers.
Where are these engineers going to school? Well here is a list, created by employment firm, Zippia, of the schools that have the highest placement rate in the field.
