As technology and science have advanced over the centuries, so have the branches of engineering. Now there are dozens of specialty areas in engineering - something for every interest. Some engineers search for new sources of energy, some design artificial limbs, while others work to protect our environment.
Engineers design everything from toys to sophisticated medical diagnostic equipment.
New specialty areas are emerging every day to meet the specific demands of industry. This booklet is for those of you who are inquisitive, creative, analytical and enjoy increasing your understanding of the earth and its physical properties. If you are this type of person and want to apply your education to solving real problems, then we invite you to consider pursuing a career in Geophysics. The Canadian Geoscience Council invites you to consider Careers in Geoscience. Your counsellor or science instructor will provide you with more detailed information on how to pursue this career path.
