Work Environment
Depending on their jobs, engineering technicians may work in the shop or office areas or in both. The type of plant facilities depends on the product. For example, an electronics plant producing small electronic products requiring very exacting tolerances has very clean working conditions. Other engineering technicians, such as those in civil engineering, may work outdoors.
