Engineering has long been one of the most valued professions in Egypt. Engineering is more than just a job—it's a path of prestige and promise. For years, securing a degree in fields like Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering has been a top goal.

However, the job market is changing fast. With more graduates entering the field, competition for high-quality roles is increasing, making it harder to stand out.

Studying abroad can give you the edge you need to stand out. IDP can help you explore engineering programs in leading destinations such as Australia, the UK, Canada, Ireland, the USA, and New Zealand—opening doors to global opportunities and higher future earnings.

Go global with your engineering career

  • Solve Oversaturation: Approximately 35,000 engineers graduate annually from Egyptian universities, creating fierce competition and high unemployment risk. An international degree provides global certification and a focus on specialised, modern skills like AI and Green Energy.

  • Boost Your Compensation: Early-career engineers locally report low wages. International degrees lead to significantly higher starting salaries and better career progression globally.

  • Close the Skills Gap: Access cutting-edge research, advanced lab facilities, and industry-led projects that directly address the skills shortage in the global market.

  • Access Immigration Pathways: Studying in countries like Canada, Australia, and the UK opens direct routes to work permits and stable, high-paying jobs that actively seek skilled immigrant engineers.

An international degree transforms you from one of 35,000 local graduates into a globally certified expert.
