Ceramic engineers carry out research, design machine and processing methods and develop new ceramic materials and products. They work with highly advanced materials, such as high strength silicon carbides, nitrides and zirconias. Specialisations Ceramic engineers may specialise in design and production in special areas for products such as glass used in tableware, fibre optics, bulbs, electronic equipment, cement used in construction, ceramic for pottery, tiles, plumbing fixtures, insulators used in electrical equipment, structural ceramics used in tools and machine components, bioengineering, electronic ceramics for integrated circuits, magnets, sensors, structural clay used for enamel cookware, sewer pipes and even jewellery. Employment Glass, cement, electronic, ceramic and electrical industries employ ceramic engineers. Besides specific engineering opportunities, they also work in research and in management in industries dealing with ceramic equipment and products.
