How to get a job in BioengineeringEngineering courses are normally in high demand, but Bioengineering is not yet among the most coveted list of Brazilians.
Therefore, it is still possible to get a vacancy with a little more tranquility than, for example, Civil, Electrical or Production Engineering.
The best way to enter Bioengineering courses is to take Enem.
With the grade obtained in the tests, those interested can compete in several programs for access to higher education.
Whoever dreams of studying at a public institution, for example, can choose Sisu. Twice a year, the program opens registration. There are vacancies in several colleges, distributed according to the most recent Enem note: the higher, the more chances.
ProUni is another such program. With it you can get a place in a private college and take the entire course with a scholarship funded by the federal government. But first it is necessary to be selected in the selection process. For this, the candidate must have a good grade in the most recent Enem and fit the determined income and school education requirements.
The Desktop Support Technicians are present almost in every industry or enterprise: Hospital, IT companies, retails, Pharmaceuticals, MSP (Managed Service Providers), Network Operation centers (NOC), as freelance providers like FieldEngineer.com.
Another interesting resource is FIES, the federal government's facilitated credit system. With a good grade in any Enem from 2010 you can apply for a vacancy in Bioengineering and only start paying the financed amount after graduation, in soft monthly installments.
Finally, Enem allows candidates to automatically enter private colleges without having to take an entrance exam. Just find the institution you want, inform the grades obtained in any edition starting in 2010 and guarantee enrollment.
In the bioengineering courses, that old advice is also valid: try to study in colleges well evaluated by MEC. In addition to the quality of education, they generally have a good name in the job market.
