Is Aerospace engineering harder than Mechanical and Electrical engineering?
jaap de vries said:Don't listen to Astronuc. Aerospace is much much harder...just kidding. If you are woried about it being hard than maybe sociology would be an nice option.
Aerospace engineering focuses on the design, development, and maintenance of aircraft and spacecraft, while mechanical engineering covers a broader range of topics such as machinery, engines, and thermal systems.
While there may be some overlap in skills and knowledge, aerospace engineers typically specialize in the aerospace industry, while mechanical engineers can work in various industries such as automotive, manufacturing, or energy.
Both aerospace engineering and mechanical engineering offer excellent job prospects and opportunities, depending on the specific industry and location. However, the aerospace industry is more competitive and may have a higher demand for specialized skills.
Both aerospace engineers and mechanical engineers use similar software and tools, such as computer-aided design (CAD) software, simulation programs, and various testing equipment. However, aerospace engineers may also use specialized software for aerodynamics and aircraft design.
Both fields require a bachelor's degree in engineering, but aerospace engineering may require additional education and training as it is a specialized field. Many aerospace engineers also have a master's or doctoral degree in aerospace engineering or a related field.
