Should I retire?
Former Community Member
I was a graduate in HD in 1992 and a BEng in 1995. I also got an MBA in 2004. I have been working in the engineering industry since 1992 and with 26+ years of experience. Should I retire now or in 5 to 10 years? What do you think?
Hi, I have not retired but have left my employment after 43 years for many reasons but mostly frustration with business directions.
The biggest issue for me is finding a route to deliver to the younger generations as a lecturer or consultant my engineering/technology expertise in Prognostic health/condition monitoring.
The technology direction is piezo crystal medium frequency energy transfer MFET an acoustic emission sensor world and the continued problem of digitising frequency signatures in the bandwidth 60 to 700 kHz with a 0.5 Hz fidelity !!!
The requirements can be over come with other innovative ideas and these are being explored.
Functionability is the key descriptor of the discipline and focuses on prognostic holistic capture of data to define 'normal' to 'change' events of systems/products operating through their service life.
