Abstract

The paper describes a review of typical manufacturing engineering job incumbents to determine job satisfaction, personality and motivational factors in the job. It illustrates to engineering students how such data may be collected and analysed and how such data may be employed - in this instance in developing educational objectives, and alternatively in providing a guide for selection. It was useful, when teaching motivation and job satisfaction within the "human aspects" of a given management studies programme, as an example of motivational and satisfaction factors found for a given group - such specific findings may be contrasted with general considerations of motivation theory found in texts and other specific studies in other professional/work groups.
