工程学是一门广泛的学科，涉及人类活动各个领域的许多不同活动。工程师在航空航天，汽车，能源和医学等许多不同行业工作时，所有工程师都利用创造力来设计解决方案，以解决当今世界面临的问题。工程是最令人满意的职业之一。您可以获得结果，并且最终，您可以看到自己的工作在进行中。作为工程师，您需要精通数学并且对基础科学有很好的了解，但是您还必须具有创造力，并且能够将您的想法推销给客户和同事。
Engineering is a broad subject, encompassing many different activities across various fields of human endeavour. While engineers work in many different industries, from aerospace and automotive to energy and medicine, all engineers use creativity to design solutions to the problems we face in the world today.Professional engineers in today's world are required to work with colleagues from a range of engineering disciplines. All engineering students at the University of Aberdeen undertake studies from electrical and electronic, civil, chemical, mechanical and petroleum engineering during their first two years.The four-year BEng Engineering honours (H100) and five year MEng Engineering honours (H104) programmes are therefore ideally suited to students who are not sure which branch of engineering they wish to specialise in at the time of applying. If however you already know what area you wish to study, you can apply directly to that programme.This ensures our graduates are experienced and knowledgeable about the various skills and challenges each discipline would face, making them excellent choices for any engineering team.
