1. China
This number of engineering graduates looks amazing for the future of China. This country is emerging as the new leader in technology and science, so it shouldn’t surprise you that it topped 7 countries that produce the most engineers in the world. It gets better since it is estimated that by 2020, China alongside with India, will produce 40% of all graduates in the world. Taking that into account, the number of engineering graduates will surely be much higher since the government is planning to widen engineering education. In the past years, there were a lot of students from China who earned their engineering diplomas in other countries, but the government has been putting efforts and money into the educational system, trying to make them stay.
Number of graduates: around 1, 3 million
