Abstract
Nowadays, Engineers are superheroes as such, must be ready for anything in an increasingly technology-dependent
world. Throughout the work of engineers, we are able to have smart-phones, computers, HD video, satellites TV,
airplanes, electric cars, robots, and air conditioners. The list goes on and on. Engineers have enabled us to explore the
galaxy, break the sound barrier in a car, replace the broken parts, and instantly connect with anyone all over the world
and so much more. This report focuses on engineering job preferences. The Egyptian engineering graduates are said to be
more likely to apply for or wait for public sector jobs. Certainly, this seems to be the same in other Arabic countries. The
past government supported practice of expanding youth employment in the public sector is no longer sustainable. More
and better economic opportunities for professional engineers need to be generated in the private sector by encouraging
youth entrepreneurship and the development of micro and small enterprises (MSEs) [1].
