least a bachelor’s degree of electrical engineering; advanced degrees and specialties are usually
required for advancement in the field. The curriculum of programs typically includes electrical
circuit theory, calculus, or another type of math featuring differential equations and systems
design. Students usually also take life science, physical science, statistics, and computer science.
Most jurisdictions require a professional engineer’s license for electrical engineers who will
supervise projects or perform other services for clients. Specific requirements may vary by state
or territory. Generally, electrical engineers take a “Fundamentals of Engineering” (FE)
examination. Passage allows the candidate to work as an “engineer-in-training” or “engineer
intern” under the supervision of a licensed engineer. Prior to sitting for the “Principles and
Practice of Engineering” (PE) exam, prospective electrical engineers must log four years of
practice under a licensed engineer’s supervision.

construction of electrical systems so that they

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
Generally the task of an electrical
engineer is to design high voltage equipment
such as wiring systems, lighting systems, and
generators. Within the construction industry,
the role of an electrical engineer is to survey
the site and manage the design and
comply with the necessary codes. An
electrical engineer has many responsibilities
on a construction site. These responsibilities
include designing, testing, installing and
maintaining large-scale electrical systems
that transmit and generate power. When
designing projects, electrical engineers
typically need the skills to work with
computer models in order to have a better
idea of what they should design. In addition,
electrical engineers may be responsible for
calculating the costs of projects and
scheduling delivery dates for supplies.
Finally, at the end of a project, the electrical
engineer is responsible for making sure that
all codes are met. This requires a thorough
knowledge of building codes, and the
electrical engineer may be required to teach
others how to detect building construction
issues.

Usually, an electrical engineer facilitates as

part of a team and provides technical advice
within his or her area of expertise. An
electrical engineer may work for a particular
company or may hold an in-house position
where he or she is available for consulting on
whatever issues may arise during
construction. Projects are to supervise the
electricians in handling all the electrical
works considering the safety and quality
requirements. The electrical engineers in the
construction site also read and studies the
electrical plans (usually done by electrical
design engineers) and implement it in the site
and sometimes do necessary actions whether
to correct or to improve the design. They
coordinate with other electrical engineers in
the implementation of the electrical system
design and also with other engineers of
different fields, such as civil and mechanical
engineers, to make the construction job
easier.

COMMENTS.
When I was at senior high school I
didn’t know what to enroll for my college.
My uncle advise me to enroll at PMMA
because he is a PMMA alumni. I passed
three exams to enter the merchant marine
academy (entrance, neuro, psychological
exams). I was there July 1 2019, for
probationary for 30 days yet I quit for just 2
days, I could not take the training anymore,
I had an injury in my knee. PMMA thought
me a lesson to strive, and love what I am
doing. I don’t know if I will comeback to the
academy. But one thing is for sure, I want to
step foot on a ship again. If I will graduate I
will surely apply in shipping companies. The
salary is high too, so I might consider it.
Actually I have a plan on coming back to the
academy next two years. Hope I can
comeback stronger.

This industry has one of the most
highest paid engineers in the world. The oil
and gas industry has low supply of engineers
yet there is so many oil and gas company in
the world right now. Ten years from now we
will see the demand for petroleum engineers
because of what is happening in oil and gas

12 years old grade 6 I was good at math. So
my teacher said to me that pursue
engineering course and she also said that go
for petroleum engineering because it will
gain popularity soon yet she is right. At that
time I don’t know what is petroleum
engineering. When I did my research back in
high school what petroleum engineering is, I
was shock at the tuition fees so I don’t dream
of it again anymore. I think if I will have the
chance to be a petroleum engineer or a gas
engineer I will go for it and work abroad.

engineer inspects the locomotives (some
trains have more than one), noting their
mechanical condition. The engineer
makes small adjustments and reports
any conditions requiring further
attention. While the train moves, the
railroad engineer controls its speed and
progress using throttles and airbrakes.
During the run, the engineer monitors
an instrument panel that indicates
engine conditions, such as battery
charge, amperage, and air pressure in
the main reservoir and the brakes. The
railroad engineer must be aware of the
train's route, including track conditions,
grades, signals, speed limits, and rules.
The train engineer must understand
how each train's make-up (the number
of cars and the weight of their loads)
affects the train's acceleration and
braking. The engineer remains in

SKILLS RAILROAD
ELECTRICAL ENGINEER MUST
HAVE:
 Computer skills. Experience with
the programmes used within the
rail projects you hope to work on
will be an important asset to your
application. AutoCad, Intergraph
and MicroStation are all used on
the frontline of rail engineering
and it could be of great benefit to
your career to explore
opportunities to become
competent in all three.
 Big Data expertise. Knowledge
and understanding of Big Data is
becoming increasingly useful
within the engineering industry,
and rail engineering is no
exception. The potential for Big
Data to revolutionise this area is
unpredictable at present, but
experts believe it to be crucial to
the future of all sectors of
engineering. Familiarising
yourself with this new concept can
be done gently, using charting
software, or intensively, via post-
graduate programmes, so you can
choose the level you wish to
engage at.

COMMENTS.
Power Utility Engineering is what I
am looking forward in the future as my
future job. Power utility technician is my
father’s job. My dad is working at the US
EMBASSY as a power utility technician. He
wants me to graduate electrical engineering
and replace him when he retire eight years
from now. This job at the embassy is the best
he said, he already told the team that he
wants me to replace him eight years from
now. My father’s co-workers knows me so I
think I will work at the embassy soon when I
graduated. My dad has the best paycheck
though. And I am really looking forward.
