Careers in Engineering

Mr. Kevin Brooks from the University of Toledo, College of Engineering, visited with students in Mr. Bradner’s calculus class this week about the interesting applications of math and science in all fields of engineering.  While salaries vary by branch of engineering and level of education, recent graduates have higher average starting salaries than their counterparts with degrees in other fields of study.   The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that environmental engineers will experience growth that is faster than the average for all occupations while biomedical engineers will experience growth that is much faster.  Mr. Brooks showed the students some prototypes and other examples of items used in various fields of engineering.
