Engineering Projects and live experience

[Houlther123]

Hey,

I hope everyone is doing well. Let's self-quarantine and protect our world from this pandemic. As we have lots of spare time, I just thought of sharing some latest experience I had. I'm doing my master's in Petrochemical engineering. Last month I just visited a company that provides forged parts for the power generation industry. One of my friends works there and I just thought of visiting him. I must say, I never thought it would be this tough to deal with the things there. I just came to know about different alloys and the major grades of material used, its overall production process etc. I hope all this will help me in doing my project.

Is there anyone who studies in this same field? Please share some of the projects you have done. This will be a great help. Let's stay at home and work for our future.

Thanks!

The connection between a PetroChem MS and a forging company is a bit fuzzy, to say the least. That said, You are certainly not locked into a career based on what you studied in school. A lot of what you learned in school will carry over, even though it was taught from a different perspective. In my own case, my PhD work was in hydrodynamics, but I've never done anything since that time in hydrodynamics; it was a means to an end. The same could well apply to you.
