The basic
profession of the engineer is made of putting and resolving concrete and often
complex, technological natural problems, connected to the conception, the
manufacturing and the application of products, as well as elaborating systems
or services. This capacity comes out a set of technical knowledge on one hand,
economic, social and human knowledge on the other hand, based on a robust scientific
culture.
The
engineer practices first of all in industry, building and civil engineering,
or agriculture, but also in service. It
mobilises people, technical and financial means, mostly in an international
context. It incurs an economic and social
sanction, and is tightly linked with the concerns of human being protection,
life and environmental care, and more generally the collective prosperity.
The
engineer, holder of a diploma, has acquired a set of knowledge and know-how
during a long higher education cycle, including multi-field academic programmes
and periods of training in professional environment. These programmes are
organised by the recognised educational establishments, which have been
entitled by the CTI. More over, in certain cases, the engineer can also have
obtained, with an authorised establishment, the validation of professional
experiences that substitute themselves partially for academic elements of
programme.
