An engineer’s work is as exciting as it is challenging, but not only in the aspect of engineering. Because more and more projects are becoming multi-national, engineers need to be excellent communicators, often in a number of languages. They will gain project management skills and have a keen financial awareness. Engineers are changing the world in which we live so they, more than anyone, need to be adaptable and have the ability to work dynamically. Nowhere more so has this been true than in the world of electronics, systems integration and Information Technology. Engineering is the key driver behind this technology boom and BAE Systems is one of the world players in this field. Its technologies range from superconductors, electronic counter measures, data aquisition, radar, telemetry all the way to systems integration, or how these technologies ‘communicate’ with each other. This page is dedicated to giving you an insight into some of the exciting areas of engineering BAE Systems is currently involved with. You may find out more than you anticipated.
