  • Who should pursue Process Engineering Job training?

    If you enjoy solving problems and are interested in mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing operations, a degree in process control engineering technology may be a good fit for you.

    What tasks are typically performed in Process Engineering Jobs?

    • Troubleshoot problems with machinery
    • Install, operate, and maintain instruments
    • Monitor production and manufacturing processes
    • Record processes and results
    • Perform quality testing on products
     

    Process Control Technicians monitor activities in a variety of industrial environments, including manufacturing plants, food processing plants, petroleum refineries, power plants, chemical manufacturers, and wastewater treatment plants. Process technicians often spend the day on their feet, checking equipment and running tests in hard-hat environments.(1)  

    What is the outlook for Process Engineering Job Training?

    According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), overall employment of engineering technicians is expected to increase by 5 percent from 2008 to 2018, though specific growth will vary by engineering specialty.(1)

    Although it may be possible to qualify for certain engineering technician jobs without formal training, most employers prefer to hire someone with a 2 year associate’s degree – like the Process Control Engineering Technology degree available at Remington College in Mobile, Alabama - or other postsecondary training in engineering technology.(1)(2)  

    What skills can help prepare graduates for Process Engineering Jobs?

    In addition to an interest in engineering and problem solving, engineering technicians should have an aptitude for math and science and be able to communicate effectively with teams of engineers.(1)

    As a student in our Mobile, Alabama Process Control Engineering Technology degree program, you will have the opportunity to learn about equipment operation, process instrumentation, safety considerations, specialized production, and quality control.
