A computer hardware engineer must
consistently use both science and math in their job. The primary focus in this
career is to create computers and computer-related parts that are ready to be
sold. Technology is increasing at a steady rate because of people such as
computer hardware engineers; they are the ones who are constantly working to improve
our computers and technology. Without the work of computer hardware engineers,
many businesses and government agencies would not be able to function as efficiently
as they currently do, as computers play a big role in Canadians’ lives. Their
job involves a lot of physics and study about electricity and its components.
Their work has helped get this journal to you, whether it is a digital or paper
version.
To become a computer hardware
engineer, a 4 year bachelor’s degree in computer engineering or a similar study
such as electrical engineering is required.
For advanced positions, a master’s degree may be required, or in some
cases such as that of an engineering professor, a PhD is required. A master’s
degree takes 1-2 years in addition to a bachelor’s degree and a PhD is another
4 years. Currently, I plan on studying electrical engineering. With a degree in
electrical engineering I can get a job as a computer hardware engineer as
electrical engineering is quite similar. Many of the same things are taught in
both, electrical and computer hardware engineering. Many universities
throughout the GTA and Canada offer these programs; however the best
universities to study computer hardware engineering include McMaster University
and U of T. In the first year of
university you will be amongst other engineering students ranging from chemical
to mechanical engineering as they all need the same engineering foundation,
after the first year, you will go into the branch of your choosing. A computer
engineer should have a liking in technology as they will have to learn about
the latest technology constantly.
Personally, I would like a job which
pays fairly well and a computer hardware engineer typically gets paid at least
$40,000 annually at an entry-level job. I would appreciate earning that much at
an entry-level job as it would greatly assist me in paying off any remaining
school bills. Your wages gradually increase and by the time you have 5-10 years
of experience on your resume, you could be making $80,000 annually. Senior or
supervisory positions can earn well over $100,000 a year but it does not come
easily. My two favourite subjects are math and science which have been my
favourite for quite a while and which I excel in. I've also had an interest in
electrical components for many years, I used to make simple circuits involving
LEDs and motors as the loads. All of this makes this career a good choice for
myself.
One of the main benefits I would
gain from this career is that I would always be up to date with the latest technology;
it would definitely improve my scientific literacy, particularly in the
computer and electrical sectors. The variety of possible employers and
workplaces entices me, I could be working for the federal government in a
development firm or in a research lab. Almost all computer hardware engineers
work in urban metropolitan areas which I definitely prefer over rural areas as
it is where I have lived all my life. Another fairly good point of becoming a
computer hardware engineer is that as long as we continue to use computers,
there will be jobs in this sector. With the rate that technology is increasing
at, the job availability for this career can only go one way, which is up.
