The purpose of this study was to analyze the current state of the profession and the trends and needs that would influence its development. The profession came through the 2020 pandemic quite well, but labour shortages need to be addressed, and university research and training must be tailored to the needs of the labour market. An Aviseo survey of 3,206 OIQ members found that artificial intelligence, the energy transition, and climate change will have the greatest impacts on the profession.<\/p>\n","category":[{"term_id":17,"name":"Sectoral study","slug":"sector-study","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":17,"taxonomy":"perspective_category","description":"","parent":0,"count":24,"filter":"raw","term_order":"8"}],"thematic":[{"term_id":20,"name":"Economy","slug":"economy","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":20,"taxonomy":"perspective_thematic","description":"","parent":0,"count":25,"filter":"raw","term_order":"3"}],"thumbnail":{"ID":499,"id":499,"title":"Ordre des ing\u00e9nieurs","filename":"Ordre-des-ingenieurs.jpg","filesize":242064,"url":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs.jpg","link":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/en\/perspectives\/economic-impact-and-labour-needs-study-in-the-mining-sector\/ordre-des-ingenieurs-2-2\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"ordre-des-ingenieurs-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1046,"date":"2021-08-05 12:25:43","modified":"2022-01-27 02:21:30","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/wp\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2486,"height":869,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-300x105.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":105,"medium_large":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-768x268.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":268,"large":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-1024x358.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":358,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-1536x537.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":537,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-2048x716.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":716,"mw_500":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-500x175.jpg","mw_500-width":500,"mw_500-height":175,"mw_1000":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-1000x350.jpg","mw_1000-width":1000,"mw_1000-height":350,"mw_1400":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-1400x489.jpg","mw_1400-width":1400,"mw_1400-height":489,"mw_2000":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Ordre-des-ingenieurs-2000x699.jpg","mw_2000-width":2000,"mw_2000-height":699}},"show_on_homepage":false,"flex":[{"acf_fc_layout":"file","file":{"ID":1022,"id":1022,"title":"OIQ - Profil de l'ing\u00e9nieur d'aujourd'hui et de demain","filename":"OIQ-Profil-de-lingenieur-daujourdhui-et-de-demain.pdf","filesize":9874616,"url":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/app\/uploads\/2022\/01\/OIQ-Profil-de-lingenieur-daujourdhui-et-de-demain.pdf","link":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/en\/perspectives\/current-and-future-engineers-an-examination\/oiq-profil-de-lingenieur-daujourdhui-et-de-demain\/","alt":"","author":"2","description":"","caption":"","name":"oiq-profil-de-lingenieur-daujourdhui-et-de-demain","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1021,"date":"2022-01-27 02:05:21","modified":"2022-01-27 02:05:21","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"application\/pdf","type":"application","subtype":"pdf","icon":"https:\/\/aviseo.ca\/wp\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/document.png"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<p><strong>Key figures<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There was a 22%\u00a0increase in engineering professionals (+15,000) between 2006 and 2016.<\/li>\n<li>Women represent 15% of Quebec\u2019s engineers.
