Why would you need a BS to do that?

Most of us do those task daily without an Engineering degree.

Not to mention you are unlikely to have any applicable experience from a BS unless you specifically get one of them thar metrology degrees out there that offers at least some basic hands on.

I have actually interviewed for a few of these "Metrology Engineer" positions, and proven that I can fulfill the requirements, and then some, and got rejected due to a lack of a degree.  :? But then you see the same posting, 90 days later, when the college grad they hired fails due to lack of training/experience. But will they be willing to pay me what I am worth next year when I get my degree? I doubt it.

The people doing the hiring for these positions need to learn a little more about the needs of the job, before rejecting obviously qualified applicants for lack of a degree....

So would I qualify with my Theology Degree? No. They want an Engineer that knows nothing about Metrology and spend $$$$ training him to learn what we already know. Sounds pretty stupid to me.

Not to mention how many Engineers break their own equipment by accident. We all see that everyday. Granted there are some engineers out there that are brilliant, but those guys will not take a Metrology job.

Coup, I would bet that "metrology engineer" is a title dreamed up by some HR hiring type who a) knows nothing about engineering, and b) stared at their computer for 1/2 an hour after spell-checking the hiring ad trying to decide between 'meteorology' and 'metrology'...

I'd also bet the actual work that gets done by this position in that company is remarkably similar to what you do every day at work in Georgia.  Your theology degree would serve you well in Cleveland, as you explain to the Browns fans there that God really has nothing to do with their team's chances of getting in to the playoffs...  :-)

I am wholly unqualified to speak to these things, however, as I am a lowly non-degreed PMEL tech school graduate with only years on the bench, TFCU site, and FASTCAL deployments as experience.  My tons of college credits never adding up to a BS or BA in anything never bothers my employer, who pays me to build converting machines for P&G at 30+ plants around the world, with a $170MM annual budget and a Dell laptop.  Where did I learn this skill?  When I built FASTCAL labs for a living...  No schooling for that out in the real world.  Just jump in the deep end of the pool and swim, baby.  HR hiring managers never remember that, yes, you want to hire an intelligent, experienced person.  HOW they got to be intelligent is immaterial.  Give me a "metrology engineer" that learned it on the bench anyday, and if they have a theology degree, so much the better- they can lead the opening prayer at the lab softball games...
If it works, it's a Fluke.
