Outlook
Employment for engineers varies by specialty. For example, little or no change in employment is expected for materials engineers through 2028, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. About-as-fast-as-the-average employment growth is predicted for environmental, mechanical, and civil engineers. Steady employment for forensic engineers is expected because workers with this type of specialized technical expertise are in short supply.
