Is it difficult to find a job in engineering mechanics? What are the prospects?

I am a graduate of engineering mechanics. Now I am a teacher in a university. My classmates have all kinds of jobs, but generally speaking, there are more people who are engaged in engineering structures and college teachers. There are few employment options after graduating from a bachelor's degree in engineering mechanics. You should study for a master's degree before finding a job. You will have good opportunities.

How is employment in engineering mechanics

(Nanjing University of Technology)

I am working, and graduates from our department will never have to worry about finding a job. However, the monthly salary for graduates from the Department of Chemical Machinery is generally very low when they first start working. However, the employment rate of graduate students is lower than that of undergraduate students. Many companies do not want graduate students, especially girls, and it is more difficult to find a job.

(Zhengzhou University)

Generally speaking, the employment situation of mechanics is not as good as that of civil engineering, machinery, and electrical engineering. Therefore, most people have taken the postgraduate entrance examination, especially girls. The construction conditions at the construction site are quite difficult, and girls are rarely recruited. There are not many people looking for mechanics at job fairs. The jobs for us boys are okay, but the conditions are quite difficult, and we mainly signed up for the China Railway Bridge Bureau and the Sinochem Eleventh Construction Unit, and few of them were able to sign with good pay, but Zhengda University as a whole was only good. This level.

(Changsha University of Science and Technology)

The engineering mechanics of Changsha University of Science and Technology is actually similar to bridge engineering, both of which are more practical. The jobs that graduates can find now are no worse than those of civil engineering. , some are in design institutes, some are in construction units, and some have changed careers. Anyway, no matter what you do, it is the same. You must combine your studies with your own interests and hobbies, otherwise the work will definitely not go well, so learn more about interpersonal relationships.

(Daqing Petroleum Institute)

I am originally from a petroleum school. My classmates usually work in petroleum companies after graduation. However, engineering mechanics are generally employed in research institutes or large-scale companies. State-owned enterprises are engaged in mechanical performance analysis, product identification, etc. The employer requires a small number of people. You can also go to teach in colleges and universities, but you need a doctorate. Employment direction of engineering mechanics

Schools and scientific research institutions

A large proportion of people choose research institutes. Most are research institutes affiliated with aviation groups. The salary level in this kind of unit is not very high, but it is relatively stable. The working locations are mainly in Shenyang, Xi'an, Beijing and Shanghai. Relatively few people go to school to become teachers, mainly due to the current expansion of master's degree students, and the school's academic requirements for teachers have also increased.

Continue to study for a Ph.D.

This is also the choice of many engineering mechanics master's students. And a large number of them chose to continue their Ph.D. studies at China Southern Airlines. In addition to China Southern Airlines’ strong engineering mechanics strength, the mentor factor and their own understanding of master’s topics are also reasons. Since you have a certain understanding of the topic during the master's degree, it is beneficial to carry out research during the doctoral period. This group of people will basically go to school to become teachers after graduating with a doctorate.

National defense units

The big reason is that China Southern recruits national defense students as undergraduates. These national defense students go to work in the army after completing their master's degree.

Foreign companies

Some people have joined foreign companies, such as Samsung, Emerson, Ford, etc. The work done by these units includes finite element calculations, optimization, software development and more. The treatment in this kind of unit is relatively better, but of course the labor intensity is also high.

Others

In addition to the above destinations, some people choose to take the civil service examination, or go to units related to their undergraduate majors. For example, there are students whose undergraduate major is civil engineering and go to architectural design after graduation. Institute.
