The Student
Career Interests
This course is typically suited for people with the following Career Interests. If these interests do not describe you, this course may prepare you for work you may not find satisfying.
Realist
Realists are usually interested in 'things' - such as buildings, mechanics, equipment, tools, electronics etc. Their primary focus is dealing with these - as in building, fixing, operating or designing them. Involvement in these areas leads to high manual skills, or a fine aptitude for practical design - as found in the various forms of engineering.
Realists like to find practical solutions to problems using tools, technology and skilled work. Realists usually prefer to be active in their work environment, often do most of their work alone, and enjoy taking decisive action with a minimum amount of discussion and paperwork.
Enterprising
Enterprising people like situations that involve using resources for personal or corporate economic gain. Such people may have an opportunistic frame of mind, and are drawn to commerce, trade and making deals. Some pursue sales and marketing occupations. Many will eventually end up owning their own business, or in management roles in larger organisations. They tend to be very goal-oriented and work best when focused on a target. Some have an entrepreneurial inclination.
Career Progression
Graduates in Engineering Technology Management can find excellent employment opportunities in a variety of industrial fields, including aerospace, automotive, pharmaceutical, medical device, consumer and industrial goods, food and beverage, and service fields like logistics, transportation, and consulting. They include opportunities in business analysis, technical marketing, and project management in a variety of engineering fields, as well as manufacturing system design and operation, lean engineering, mechanical engineering, Innovative product design, CADCAM, process and methods engineering, production and materials management, quality, and manufacturing engineering.
