qualifications, and career path navigation.The concept of the engineerIn France engineers enjoy a high social rank where they constitute the mainstay of high-levelmanagers in French industries, different from other countries where these positions areoccupied by science Ph.Ds (Lemaître, 2017). In China, engineers do not enjoy as high asocial status and, in fact, the title of engineer lacks proper regulation (Qiao et al., 2023). Thisis reflected in most interviewees’ understanding of the difference in the concept between thetwo countries. ‘Engineers are viewed as elites of society in France, whereas in China, they arejust ordinary science and technology graduates’ (S6). Students understand that the concept ofengineer in France is broad, signifying an
