      Probably not, engineering is rather diverse and one can’t get bored easily. An engineer can move between design roles, to production, management, research & development, data analysis & computer programming … teaching, etc … even work in finance and economics. There are many opportunities for engineers.

      I am confident I wouldn’t change my job (I’m a professor at TCD).
      But the good thing is that the knowledge you get is quite broad and focused on problem solving that you could change if you wanted to!

      Identifying with my abilities + passion, I can safely say that I am in the right job (an engineer).

      However, if I ever had to choose a different one, I would like a career in music – A DJ!
      LOL!

      There’s good and bad stuff in every job, I miss working on sites as an apprentice electrician when the sun is shining but I remember getting caught out in the rain looking at people in an office wishing I could be dry and warm.

      I think if I could id tweak it a little, take the best bits from other jobs I would but other than that I wouldnt change my job
