I want to add a tip.

Normally Engineering degree takes 4 year studies (Local, Aus, US, etc). However, if your based on UK's degree, 3 year is enough for bachelor. Then just do an extra year (total 4) and you can graduate with a Master in Engineering degree. It is not a 'post-graduate' master degree but an undergraduate one.

As you put in your resume, some employers are not aware of this and may 'treat' you as a master degree holder. Seldomly, some employer may inquire about whether it is a post-graduate or what, so just clarify to them honestly hahaha..

Of course it is recommended to do 4 instead of 3 in a UK uni, as our BEM only recognize 4 years eng degree.

I have always wondered how far off better are Field/Project Engineers fares vs real engineers?

Field/Project engineers to me are just decoration engineer who only works on executing projects from head to toe but could be crippled when come to calculations, designs, etc. Only merely a coordinator, technical focal point, punching bag for clients, and as a general rep.

Real engineers are those who does analysis, designing, blablabla.

I ask this because I am the former. And what i do feel is, in 5 years time, I'll not be technically competent (even design the simplest thing that an engineer should know) compared to the real eng. By then, hes a specialist, whereas I'm a generalist. But then, the specialist can do my job, but not vice versa.

Say if Im not seeing any progression for myself being a project manager, Ill just stay the same as now. An empty milo can. you know?
