engineers and architects, graduated at an engineering school, from
different branches:
15 % in architecture, 14% in civil engineering and 71% in industrial engineering
(production, logistics, services and management) with 28% mechanical
engineers, 25% electronic engineers and 18% from other engineering
professions. They are organised in 28 regional groups and 25 specialized
groups.
