Question: What engineering discipline should I study?
Mechatronics
In the US, they typically differentiate between computer engineering and software engineering.Yura said:Question. When people say computer engineer, are they talking about software engineering or computer-systems engineering? because i went into computer systems engineering but no one i talk to seems to know about it. I know that its a mix of electrical engineering and software engineering but i heard thatt it was a new course taken in by the university I am studying at (in Australia) so no one really knows about it here so it a bit harder to get a job if no one knows what it is.
Stick with it, engineering degrees are not easy courses, but the rewards are worth it.
JSBeckton said:I'm a 3rd year ME student, the classes don't get easier they get harder and your competition gets tougher as weaker students drop out of engineering. Just remember that everyone is in the same boat and you just have to work harder and study more if you are not in the upper half of your classes.
I truly believe that its not how smart you are per say, its how hard you are willing to work that decides how well you will do in engineering.
kdinser said:I would kind of agree with that, but I know several people who are taking some of their math classes over 4 or 5 times. It's not that they don't work hard, or that they are stupid. They are committed and put in more hours studying then I usually do, but I have serious doubts as to the likelihood of them graduating with engineering degrees.
Many, if not most high school students who attend college, choose this path.Kadosa said:hello guys i was wondering if you guys think i would be alright going fromgr 12 high school straight to university planning to do electrical engineering.
Demand for engineers, especially those who are top students (particularly those with advanced degrees), will remain high. EE will be in demand.Kadosa said:i found electrical engineering prospects for future jobs is good but what do you guys think. Electrical engineering, good career as in after university, perhaps after my 4 years (bachelor) will i be able to find a job easily or not.
JSBeckton said:In all honesty, if you are taking basic math (Calc I,II,III, DiffEQ,Lin Algebra) 4-5 times then I would say that you are either not working hard at all or you are not smart at all.
And I know people who I would say are not that smart that passed all of those classes the first time. I have never met anyone who tried hard at all that couldn't pass those courses (at least on the 2nd try).
Has anyone else?
