<p>Although i thought that calling yourself “engineer” is illegal in a sense, you dont need to have an engineering degree to get six figures doing control systems. You need either electrical/computer engineer/technologist or computer science degree or iT degree.</p>
<p>However the energy industry is probably the only industry that would allow that many money. I know because I worked in this field in oil and gas before going into utilities. Also note that the control system stuff in these jobs have nothing to do with what you learn in control systems course in engineering. Its mostly with scada and instrumentations.</p>
