Hello folks,
This is a bit of an "academic guidance" question, but I feel it is most appropriate here.
What are your thoughts regarding the usefulness of the two subjects listed? I have a choice going into my final semester between these two, and it is turning out to be a difficult one. Microcontrollers has more interest for me, but the class-schedule will be brutal. The computer-aided engineering course is only one night a week, but it doesn't seem like it would be very useful.
I already know my way around Solidworks and Ansys, although I don't really know the theory behind FEA and CFD. I've taken other automation and robotics courses, and microcontrollers aligns itself well with those subjects.
I guess the question really is this. Which one is more useful, and which one is easier to learn on my own?
Thanks,
Mac
