The decline in engineering careers in Pakistan, Engineering in Pakistan once was considered a prestige and promising profession, but evidence of its decline is visible in recent times. Economic instability, outdated education system, and corruption coupled with the large-scale mismatch between the market demands and the actual skill produced by the engineering institutions are the reasons for this decline. The regulatory body responsible for supervising the profession-the Pakistan Engineering Council-was also found involved in misdeeds which added to the crisis in the engineering profession.
