A candidate who wants to pursue a career in commissioning engineering should have an array of useful skills as well as the appropriate educational background to meet the demands of the job. Some of these skills include organization, interpersonal skills and the ability to work under pressure. The educational background that is required for this type of position is a four year degree in an engineering discipline, such as mechanical or construction engineering. Also, a master’s degree and externship may be required for additional experience within the field. Commissioning engineering positions are not entry-level jobs and require significant experience in a field related to engineering, construction, or commissioning. A person who chooses this career path should have a good sense of responsibility and have the ability to meet strict deadlines. Strong analytical, teamwork and communication skills are very important, as is the ability to work well under pressure and in fast-paced work environments.
