How to Become a WiMAX Engineer

Things You’ll Need:

  • Master's degree in electrical engineering (recommended)
  • Courses in radio frequency
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical, computer or software engineering
  • WiMAX professional certification
Step1
Research colleges in your area for applicable degree programs. WiMAX engineers typically have bachelor's degrees in electrical, computer or software engineering.
Step2
Continue your studies with a master's degree in electrical engineering. Although not strictly required, a master's degree will make you a more competitive candidate and may allow you to command a higher salary.
Step3
Take a course in RF (radio frequency) networks. Learning RF network design is an integral step to being able to design WiMAX networks.
Step4
Enroll in an advanced RF course. This class should show you how to meld the RF design principles with the theories of wireless technology used in WiMAX design. Your focus should be on designing a network with a high level of quality, also known as an "efficient system."
Step5
Study the IEEE 802.16 standard. Most employers will ask that you have a solid understanding of this standard, which is also referred to as "mobile WiMAX."
Step6
Attend one of the several WiMAX seminars to become certified. You can learn more about certification and testing centers at the official WiMAX Forum website (see Resources below). WiMAX professional certification takes about 3 or 4 days to acheive and demonstrates to future employers that you have completed the course and have the ability to design, install and run WiMAX networks.
Step7
Take an interpersonal communications course or seminar. Acquiring solid communications skills is important, especially since WiMAX engineers often need to work closely with many different members of a team.
Step8
Maintain a professional demeanor. As a WiMAX engineer, you may need to deal directly with clients and vendors for your company.
