A bachelor’s degree in engineering is required for almost all entry-level engineering jobs. College graduates with a degree in a physical science or mathematics occasionally may qualify for some engineering jobs, especially in specialties in high demand. Engineers trained in one branch may work in related branches. This flexibility allows employers to meet staffing needs in new technologies and specialties in which ...
