An engineering job with a twist.
by: Christine Zafra
When you hear the word engineer, what comes into your mind? Probably wires or maybe geometric figures. MATH perhaps? Everything about that most dreaded subject of the kids. But what is not known to many is that, there is another kind of engineer that is hitting the latest job trends by storm: the environmental engineers.
They have a different purpose and goal. If the company wants to put up a new commercial building in an area, will it not bother the people living there? Or perhaps, if the company wants to put up a factory that discharges toxic outputs in an isolated area, how far is that factory to schools, rivers, seas, residential areas and the like? Being an environmental engineer is a very notable job. Kudos to the environmental engineers that protect the environment’s welfare.
