        Engineer is really big area. You can be engineer in chemistry (chemical engineering), electricity, process…Depend what is your interest. A chemical engineer who works with raw materials to create everyday, useful products would need to be interested in chemistry.
        You will need to be good in maths and any science also you need to be good in problem-solving.

        Depends on your interest. You can become an engineer in chemistry, mechanics, electronic etc…. You need to be good in mathematics and physics both.

        Do a Bachelors degree in engineering. As evryone else said, physics and maths are essential for engineering!
