A packaging engineer is part of the entire packaging development process, including research, computer design, prototyping, and massive production. This is a crucial role for both customers and manufacturers. They directly influence the safe consumption of the product and efficient distribution.
To become a packaging engineer, you must have a bachelor’s degree in either Engineering, Science, Business, or Marketing. Most packaging engineering specializes in a particular industry, such as food, cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals, so your role will be highly related to your working field. You will work alongside a team that may have graphic designers, marketers, and other colleague engineers.
