I am currently trying to decide what I want to study in collage. I think (still not sure) I have narrowed it down to Maintenance Engineer or Agricultural Engineer, both similar but different in many ways, just wondering peoples opinion on which one I should be choosing?
Maintenance engineer:
It's a two year course that really should then be backed up by an apprenticeship with a business. I know the wage for this job would probably be more, however, most I've seen you have to do shifts and I'm not sure how keen I am to do shifts. From what I can gather most people who do this work in a factory environment servicing machines. Anyone got any more info on this job?
Agricultural engineer:
It's the same a two year course, that I could then get a job after. I would either be in a workshop or working from a van. I've spoke to some people about this job and they've said if I wanted to it's quite easy to transfer the skills into repairing things like forklifts, loadalls that sort of stuff. Any more info on this type of job?
I live in north Wales if this makes a difference. I'd like a job that's versatile and if I ever wanted to have my own business. I could, who knows.
But I do know it all starts with a collage course. Many thanks jack
