Employment situation of electrical engineering and automation specialty

Electrical engineering and its automation is a very popular specialty now. Many graduates choose this major, mainly because of the wide range of employment. But what is the main work direction of electrical engineering and automation specialty, and what is the salary and treatment of enterprises? Come and meet me ~

The major of electrical engineering and automation mainly trains senior technical personnel engaged in the research, design, operation, experiment, management and development of electrical engineering and automation. The graduates of this major have broad technical theoretical foundation and solid professional basic knowledge, strong basic skills of electrical engineering, good practical training, strong innovation ability, and certain scientific research, scientific and technological development and organizational management capabilities that are suitable for the market economy. Graduates can be employed in power plants, power system power supply departments, power survey and design research units, power management and other departments, that is, power bureau, design institute and engineering bureau.

The employment prospect of electrical engineering and its automation major is mainly engaged in the fields of system operation, automatic control, power electronic technology, information processing, experimental analysis, research and development, economic management and application of electronic and computer technology related to electrical engineering. Electrical automation is widely used in factories. It can be said that electrical automation is the only indispensable thing in the factory and the pillar of the factory! If you are proficient in electrical automation, the employer will want you at once, no matter what company it is, it is better to be an electronics factory, because the electronics factory needs automation, programming and design every day.

If you pay great attention to the requirements of working conditions, the best thing is the electric power bureau. Good welfare and high treatment. Then there is the design institute, and the work is relatively easy. The hardest part is the Engineering Bureau. Because I have to take the project site everywhere. But the salary is not low. But also to automation, electronics and other directions. Most importantly, you will never worry about not finding a job in this line of work. Although the first few years were hard, I didn't get much money. But as your work experience grows, your salary will increase quickly.

Generally speaking, the first-level subordinate units of the power supply bureau (here refers to the regional power supply bureau, not the county bureau, the same below) are:

Organs: including bureau office, personnel department, finance department, electric power department, safety supervision department, power transmission and transformation transportation inspection department, power customer service center, trade union, etc. New college students are generally not assigned to the organs, unless they are very close and unwilling to go to the grassroots, even if you are in the organs, you can't command the people below. From the experience, leaders are generally promoted gradually after years of grassroots training, so I think it is best not to go to the office just after graduation, but to be willing to go to the grassroots.

Dispatching room: different places may have different names (department workshops, etc.). ). This office mainly includes dispatching room and relay protection class. This research institute is the department with the highest technical content and occupies a very important position in the bureau. Most of the leaders of our bureau come from this research institute. As the name implies, the dispatching room (local dispatching) is the unit that dispatches the operation of regional power grids. The dispatcher must go to the substation for several months first, get familiar with the operation mode of the substation, and then practice in the dispatching room for about half a year. You can be an assistant dispatcher after passing the exam.

The dispatcher's job is boring and he calls all day. Like an operator, it is normal to shift shifts and work at night, and there can be no mistakes in dispatching orders. Of course, the dispatcher and the staff in the mode room who compile the operation mode of the power grid should master the accident handling of the relay protection of the power grid structure well, because the difficulty is that they are 5% commanders in the accident handling. The advantage is that it is not tired or dirty. On average, you have four days off for two days, and the bonus is high.

Relay protection level: there are generally several relay protection levels, which are responsible for protecting substations with several voltage levels of 35kV/110kV/220kV/500kV. This is the place where new college students often go and have a wide range of knowledge. A person engaged in relay protection generally needs at least three or four years of practical work experience to be fully familiar with the protection work of this bureau. If you become the technical backbone of relay protection, you must be very popular, because some jobs must be yours.

By the way, I saw in various substations of our bureau that there are many products of Ji Xu and Nan Rui among relay protection devices, the former is mainly traditional electromechanical relay, and the latter is mainly microcomputer protection device. It seems that their market is not small. I remember that when Shenzhen Nanrui came to EE for recruitment last year, there were more than 30 masters and only a few notebooks, which was actually caused by our ignorance of Nanrui.

Computer Communication Department: Some places are also called Information Department of Information Center, which is also the department where a large number of new students have poured in in recent years. Since all power supply bureaus now have centralized control centers and adopt energy management system (ems), most substations are unattended, and the monitoring of data acquisition equipment and the realization of microcomputer protection are inseparable from communication. Many young people in this study, most of them graduated from computer science department.

Overhaul laboratory: This laboratory mainly overhauls and maintains the primary equipment and tests it regularly. There are systems (tube main transformer), switches (tube circuit breaker), high voltage and laboratory. The people in the workshop are hard, the working environment is full of oil, and they often need physical strength very much, so there are basically no girls.

In the past, the status of the workshop was relatively high, because he knew all about the equipment at once, and the people who came out of the workshop were almost competent for all other positions. But in recent years, the status of workshops has declined (although wages and bonuses are still high), because their work pays special attention to experience, but the technical difficulty is not high. In addition, with the popularization of microcomputer protection and the application of computer communication, people engaged in the workshop know less and less about the secondary circuit.

Transmission station: also known as line team, it is to maintain 35kV~220kV transmission lines. Working in the field is very hard, paying attention to experience, not having many skills, and basically no college students are assigned there.

Substation: responsible for the operation of substations above 35kV, and the personnel on duty in the substation belong to this substation. There is a lot of money, but the work is boring and risky. Because when an accident happens, you can basically find some responsibility from the person on duty, so the probability of being deducted from the bonus is the highest. In addition, it is said that people in this institute are not easy to get ahead.

Metrology Institute: There are internal calibration classes (watt-hour meter calibration, no business trip), current calibration classes (calibration of instruments on business trip site, installation of instruments by large users) and instrument classes (maintenance and calibration of various instruments such as voltmeter, ammeter, thermometer and pressure gauge). The work of this institute is relatively easy, relatively safe and with minimal risk. Of course, correspondingly, the income is slightly less.

There are also materials offices and county bureaus, so I won't go into details here. I believe everyone knows that the departments that are more suitable for our classmates should be the dispatching room, the financial room, the laboratory and the sub-station in turn.
