Are you interested in a career that allows you to turn ideas into reality? Engineering and technology is about using science, maths and technology to provide solutions to the problems we face every day and improve our quality of life. Engineers are involved in the design of many everyday items that we take for granted, including electricity at the flick of a switch, a bridge to transport us over the local river and the motors that power the cars we drive.
The application of engineering and technology also extends into specialist areas including maintenance management, power generation, rail and mining. Mining is one of Australia’s fastest growing economic sectors and a large employer across the nation and in the Central Queensland region.
Factors such as an ageing workforce, a growing population and rapid economic expansion have contributed to a national shortage of engineers and technologists. This shortage equates to great employment prospects upon graduation and high income earning potential. If you have always dreamed of working your way around the world, a career in this field also provides the opportunity to do just that, because engineering, mining and technology is a truly global industry.
If you like to design, develop, maintain, manage and innovate, then a career in engineering, mining and technology could be for you.
