5 Countries That Produce the Best Engineers in the World

3. Germany

German engineering is world-famous for high-quality goods and services. It spends a significant portion of its GDP on R&D, with research-and-development expenditures in 2020 making up 3.14% of its Gross Domestic Product. 

The country is highly focused on industrial engineering and is one of the best producers of electrical and mechanical engineers. This can be backed up with the fact that Germany’s contribution to the global output in Knowledge and Technology Intensive (KTI) industries was 6% in 2019, one of the highest in the world.

The top German institutes for engineering are Helmholtz Association of R&D organizations and Fraunhofer Society. The country’s prominent software companies include Siemens and SAP SE (NYSE:SAP).
