At present, it is difficult for environmental engineering undergraduate graduates to find employment, both for objective and personal reasons. Where is the way out? I hope everyone will come to discuss, communicate and learn together * ! See your direction clearly and take control of your destiny! Career planning analysis of environmental protection majors (source: Xuke Environmental Protection Blog http://blog.tianya.cn/blogger/view_blog.asp?BlogName=oasiser ) ????1.

Graduation → water investment company → engineer → project manager → senior executive ???? 6. Graduation → sewage plant/water plant → maintenance manager → director→ * * →Environmental friendly * 9. Graduation→Change of career→Broader prospects?????The specific development routes of each type are analyzed below. ?? ?? 1. Although the environmental protection industry is developing rapidly, it is not expanding as fast as environmental majors. Therefore, environmental students often become unemployed after graduation, which forces many people to continue their studies such as postgraduate and Ph.D. examinations. A better way to do this would be to stay in school to teach, and then do some part-time work in environmental impact assessment or engineering. After you have a wide range of connections and have achieved results in your own research scope, you can then open a company in the name of the school or start a company privately to take on business. Not only can they have a secure job, but also have a lot of extra income, so they can live a comfortable life. This is how many teachers in colleges and universities currently make a living. ； In addition to staying in school, working in a graduate school is also a good choice. You can conduct some research projects, earn income, and have project funding. If you can follow a relatively good senior at the beginning and get a big project, the prospects and financial prospects are very good. After a few years, you can become an expert, and you will have fame and fortune. Of course, in addition to personal ability, choosing a good school, a good environment, and following the right mentor are the keys to this path. ?? ?? 2. Environmental assessment units mainly include environmental institutes/institutes affiliated with the Environmental Protection Bureau, environmental impact assessment units affiliated with environmental departments of universities, design research institutes, and environmental consulting companies. The resources of environmental approval are still mainly controlled by administrative units, so the former is the best and the most difficult to enter. Many places still belong to public institutions. ； Next are the environmental impact assessment units of universities and design institutes. You can learn a lot from these types of units, but they are not so easy to get into, because most of the former are young teachers from the school working part-time, while the latter usually recruit graduate students. Finally, only the environmental impact assessment companies are left. Most environmental impact assessment companies are affiliated with environmental science institutes, universities or design institutes. The work is relatively hard, and the income depends on the company's performance and the boss's magnanimity. The certification of registered environmental impact engineer is a turning point in stimulating the income of this type of profession. ?? ??3. Entering an environmental protection company/design institute is currently the most common place for environmental students. There are also more detailed categories, such as design engineers, construction engineers, commissioning engineers, sales engineers, etc. Because environmental protection problems must be solved in the end, the market is quite broad and there are quite a few environmental protection companies. In the early days, most environmental protection companies were relatively small, and you could become a leading figure after working for three or four years. However, because the company is small, the management is informal, the income is generally low, and personal development is very limited. In addition, the threshold for starting a business is relatively low, which encourages technical or sales/business engineers to accumulate some experience and opportunities before they can go it alone. Of course, this may become increasingly difficult as the environmental protection industry becomes increasingly large-scale. Therefore, finding a strong and promising environmental protection company in which to continuously improve will be the focus of your career. If you encounter an opportunity to start a business, seize it. The certification of registered environmental engineers will be a turning point in formalizing the industry and increasing the income of this type of profession. ?? ?? 4. It is quite good to join a water investment company. Investment companies are all well-established, have consortiums, have formal management, and have good benefits. Especially in water companies, if they take over the subsequent operation of the project, they will appear as Party A. Compared with the suffocation that most environmental protection companies have to endure as Party B, it is naturally much more refreshing. This is a high-level white-collar path. It’s just that water companies generally need experienced people from design institutes or construction units. For graduates, there are few such opportunities. ?? ??5. Most of the water plants/sewage plants are still in the nature of public institutions, but more and more are being acquired by water companies and becoming enterprises. If you can enter, it is also very good. The income is stable, the life is stable, and after you have established a foothold, you have a lot of spare time to do what you want to do. The disadvantage is that the work lacks motivation and the salary increases slowly. It is more suitable for retirement and is more suitable for people over thirty years old. ?? ??6. The environmental department of the manufacturing industry of state-owned enterprises/foreign enterprises/famous enterprises. As the public pays more attention to environmental issues, companies have also established environmental departments to solve internal environmental problems and coordinate external environmental problems. The environmental departments of state-owned enterprises or private enterprises may currently be mostly coping-type and cannot yet become an important department. However, for foreign-funded enterprises that pay more attention to their image, the environmental department is very important, and is even a department that is independently under the direct jurisdiction of the general manager of the company. Especially many foreign-funded enterprises that combine environmental health and safety into one system (EHS). The EHS manager is a profession with a very high salary. Of course, this profession also has very high requirements for personal knowledge, application and coordination of practical problems, and foreign language. Therefore, this direction will also receive more and more attention in the future. ?? ??7. Environmental Protection Bureau and related departments. Needless to say, with Chinese characteristics, administrative units belong to the upstream of any industrial chain. You have no choice but to be governed and evaluated by it and act under its designated game rules, which leads to their natural sense of superiority. It is said that the Environmental Protection Bureau is going to be upgraded to a ministerial level, which will have an impact on environmental protection in the next few years. * * The number will also be expanded, so go for it if you have the chance! Although there are many unfair things that happen, there are also many opportunities for them to happen. ?? As the emphasis on environmental protection increases, related supporting new industries will continue to emerge, and more new environmental protection occupations will be created. The entry of foreign environmental protection companies also provides many opportunities and helps to improve the level and salary of the industry. ???? ??8. If you are not admitted to the units related to your major, and you enter other industries by chance, then congratulations are also congratulated. In today's China, what you study in college is no longer too important. What is important is how much energy you invest in the career you choose. Although the environmental protection industry is developing rapidly, this industry, which is based on experience rather than intelligence, is destined to be difficult to achieve leapfrog development in the workplace. China is changing with each passing day, and opportunities are endless. If you change to another industry, the possibility of rapid development may be greater.
