If you’re lucky enough to have an engineer as your nearest and dearest, or perhaps work with one, then you’ll want to make sure you find a gift that someone with such a curious and logical mind will really appreciate. Any ideas? Fear not. Even though not all engineers specialize in the same field or have the same hobbies, these 10 cool gifts will make (almost) every engineer as happy as a kid on Christmas morning. And remember, kindness if normally reciprocated...

For institutions aiming to find the best international talent for their PhD, including that from outside their own campuses, it is vital to present their opening to the right audience. One of the main dilemmas faced by advertisers responsible for publicizing their PhDs on INOMICS, is whether their INOMICS Announcement should be advertised as a course/study program or a job opening. The difference between the two categories is more important than it might seem at first sight: many candidates are looking for a specific category only.

Environmental engineering is a broad topic. It covers a range of scientific and engineering areas that are dedicated to reducing waste and pollution, while also  improving environmental conditions for all of us. It deals with innovative new technologies to help positively impact the environment we live in, and can take many forms, including civil engineering, architecture, and renewable energy sources. <11an>limit:2;categories:jobs;disciplines:Environmental Engineering</11an>

1. Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineering Magazine is primarily for mechanical engineers who are involved with design and product development activities. The magazine covers a broad range of topics such as design & development, manufacturing processes, case studies of design problems, 3D printing, big data, medical equipment design, and current news on technological advances.

Civil engineering students in Canada are required to go through four years of a basic undergraduate education. Students learn about material properties, environmental science, mapping and drawing skills, and even surveying. After students finish their undergraduate degree, they can work as an EIT (Engineer in Training) for several years before receiving their professional engineering designation (P. Eng)  in Canada, or they may pursue graduate studies.

1. Elon Musk There’s little doubt that Elon Musk is one of the greatest minds of our time.

1. Data Science & Machine Learning Software engineering has seen continuous growth over the past few years, and there are no signs of it stopping. Data science is a branch of software engineering that involves creating meaningful information based on large amounts of data. These large datasets are known as big data, and can come from a variety of sources such as e-commerce, or the medical or financial sectors.

There may be another reason for working at a smaller company, though: the moral implications of getting involved in a corporation that may not treat its workers well. Although working for Apple in one of its main offices as a computer engineer may mean you're treated well, such treatment is not guaranteed for all employees.

Vertical farming So, because the planet has a finite amount of land, we need to get the most yield out of what we have. One way of doing this is building upwards – building vertical farms. A vertical farm means that more food can be grown in the same amount of land because crops are being grown in layered structures. Obviously vertical farming is much different than conventional farming.

Only 14% of engineers in the US are women. Considering the fact that nearly half of the American workforce is made up of women, this statistic is staggeringly low.

Here at Nature Careers we’re always looking for ways to provide assistance to the scientific community worldwide in order to help researchers to have a rewarding career.

Scarier than all this, though, is the real truth: that it’s not just college students, but all young people. Vindication for this comes from the conclusions of a psychiatric report from 2008 which found young people of student age but who don’t attend college to be equally as likely to suffer from some kind of psychiatric disorder as their college-going counterparts. Non-college attending individuals were more likely to self-medicate with drugs, whereas college students were at a higher risk of having some kind of alcohol misuse disorder.
