Adding to your career knowledge
One of the most exciting things we’ve experienced over the past year has been Design World’s steady growth, especially around our acquisition of Engineering.com, with its excellent coverage in areas such as design and design software, 3D printing, simulation, digital transformation, and manufacturing. Our work together with their staff provides you even more avenues (and connections) online when you visit either their website or our own designworldonline.com.
As part of our work together, we’ve identified several areas where we see a need in the engineering community for additional resources. So, over the coming year, we’ll be rolling out a variety of special reports together, all aimed at keeping you informed. Along with our annual Engineering Diversity + Inclusion issue, these special reports will include a focus on some future engineering leaders you need to know about and a comprehensive salary survey. There will also be stories covering the various details surrounding corporate job satisfaction for engineers, an innovative and all-new listing of the best places to engineer, and details on what the engineer of the future may look like.
We’re also finalizing a career development webinar series aimed at people in different stages of their careers. We’ll have information for students on scholarships, fellowships, and topics for degreed engineers, such as the importance of Professional Engineer licensure. But there will also be presentations on master’s degrees and why some mid-career engineers should consider going back to school. For example, engineers with master’s degrees may earn as much as an additional 20% compared to their bachelor-degreed colleagues. They are also more likely to do innovative work, receive promotion opportunities, and stay in higher demand.
But we’re also seeking your feedback: What other content do you want from our editorial team? What stories and data would help you to solve problems at work? What do you need to advance in your career in the direction you most desire? We’re always looking for your insights and want to hear about your pain points. Please drop me a note at the email below and let’s talk.
