When I were a lad (lol) a degree in any engineering dicipline would pretty much guarantee you a decent job, but maybe that's because there weren't that many people getting them. All the folk aiming for a more "hands on" job did apprenticeships and or HND/HNC at polytech. Now the latter mostly seem to call themselves universities and do degree courses. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just that having a degree doesn't have the same meaning as it used to (separating academic from more practical careers).
