The objective of this paper is to understand why electronic engineers select engineer to be their career. Through individual life story to get better knowledge from engineers about how the decision-making resource, self concept and thread of thought from social culture affect their career decision during engineers¡¦ earily stage of life.
Because there are so many situations for a person to make decisions in their on-going life, the quantitative methodology might not exactly present the complicated aspect of this study, hence the narrative qualitative approach is chosen as the methodology of this study. Through intensive interviews to collect life stories, we interviewed seven engineers, four of them are R&D engineers and three of the others are Application Engineers. To have broaden views , sample cases¡¦ born years are selected from 1950 to 1978, we believed this could be helpful for us to see the difference in the selected cased.
When we put together all the seven career decision-making narrative stories of the engineers, the issues that affect career decision-making were distinguished into four aspects which includes decision-making resources collecting, self-concept, important others that affect decision-making and the social culture stand for in their age.
