Water/wastewater engineers advance by taking on more complex projects. With years of experience they may become senior engineers and directors of projects. They may become heads of engineering departments in large companies. They advance by getting licensed, board certified, and going back to school for advanced degrees. They may become college professors and write for engineering journals and publications. Those with many years of experience may increase their level of participation in professional associations, growing their reputation in the field by lecturing at industry-related conferences and teaching workshops and seminars.
