Some of the Engineer Officers in the Royal Navy join with degrees in Maths.

they got a MSc in engineering after their maths undergrad & work in an area of engineering more catered to maths grads.

If you discount software engineering, probably not very common. Why?

You could consider doing a more mathematical engineering degree like engineering maths/physics or control engineering. I'd say the career options from engineering are broader than maths if you take into account ease of getting into those careers e.g. it's easier to do engineering with an engineering undergrad, although maths/physics grads are targeted a bit more for some of those careers.
That said, for engineering you really need to know that you want to do engineering as a career before you choose it otherwise you will struggle through uni.

Trying to narrow down uni degree courses, atm I've got medicine, maths or natsci/physics and engineering. Kinda broad... I think my priority is deciding whether to go for medicine or not, then I can focus on which of the others to go for. There's a broad range of careers from maths, and I like maths anyway, so it would be fun. Natsci/physics can go into engineering as well, and all of the non medicine ones can go into maths related careers eg accountant.

If you want to work in engineering with a Maths degree it is possible but I think for niche roles. I don’t feel well qualified to give u advice. Maybe in simulations for example in F1 with pit strategy that kind of thing. In other branches of engineering maybe in project management or accounting department. Again I do not know.
