Employment growth is expected to be tempered by slow growth or decline in some industries, such as manufacturing and utilities.

Job growth for electrical and electronics engineers is projected to occur largely in professional, scientific, and technical services firms, as more companies are expected to tap the expertise of engineers for projects involving electronic devices and systems. These engineers also will be needed to develop sophisticated consumer electronics. The rapid pace of technological innovation will create some demand for electrical and electronics engineers in research and development, an area in which engineering expertise will be needed to design distribution systems related to new technologies.

These engineers will play key roles in new developments with solar arrays, semiconductors, and communications technologies. These estimates are available for the nation as a whole, for individual states, and for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas.
