I want to study an engineering, but I don't know which one to pick, civil engineering or mechanical engineering. Any tips/advice? Thanks.
I want to study an engineering, but I don't know which one to pick, civil engineering or mechanical engineering.
Electrical.
Where I live, they don't have electrical. Only civil and mechanical engineering.
Sounds like you should move
not political anon... that coon is pretty NEET tho
Systems
Systems is very much ocean breadth, but lacks depth. As a jumping off point it's prolly good though.
mechanical engineering because I told you to
Electrical engineering has more maths and abstract shit.
Self study? Mechanical
Want a job? Electrical
But you must learn Mechanical yourself for it is the heart and soul
t. Family has been engineers for 3 generations. Grandfather worked on nuclear missions in Pokhran. Dad works in ISRO. Me in meteorological dept
I thought also Mechanical gave you a job? Why would Electrical be more sought after?
>that family background
Are you designing rockets for India now?
I am speaking from an indian perspective, mechanical has pretty much died unfortunately here.
If OP is in Germany or USA he should do mechanical
Unfortunately i only work on weather detection systems, quite a downgrade kek
>I am speaking from an indian perspective, mechanical has pretty much died unfortunately here.
Why has mechanical died? It seems interesting to me that Electrical is sought after in India, because I saw a documentary about India and all of your electrical cables, literally all of them are outside, you even have monkeys walking on those cables. What do your electrical engineers do there? Also, is Mechanical that much in demand in USA or Germany?
>Unfortunately i only work on weather detection systems, quite a downgrade kek
Not bad. I have high hopes on the Chandrayaan program. Don't disappoint us, India.
Indian mechanical engineering died because india did not industrialise properly
Germany is the Mecca of mechanical engineering. Us has the entire military industrial complex enabling a strong mechanical engineering opportunity
India has electrical opportunity because of the boom of the IT/CS industry. I dont consider the computer science engineering aka CSE degree offered in indian engineering colleges like IITs as a real engineering degree because CS is highly theoretical
Electrical is in many ways usefull due to information age, semiconductor stuff etc etc
>Not bad. I have high hopes on the Chandrayaan program. Don't disappoint us, India.
We hopefully wont, bros.
Thanks for the insight, Indiabro. I wish you well.
>CS is highly theoretical
Isn't that the case everywhere around the world? Or it's just India that makes CS focused on theory?
>I have a ME degree and also have been employed since college. 30 and making $90k which is pretty typical, it actually might be on the lower paying end.
How's the job market for mechanical engineers in the US? Are you doing well anon?
Cs everywhere is theoretical hence i dont consider it engineering
CS is interesting
I had an entire class about solving math problems with programming and after all of the linear algebra calc and stat functions we wrote, the moral of the class was "be careful with floating point numbers"
One of my favorite classes
I have a ME degree and also have been employed since college. 30 and making $90k which is pretty typical, it actually might be on the lower paying end.
I chose mechanical because it is practical. I can use what I learn in my daily life. Civil, not so much. I don't build roads and bridges in my down time.
For how many generations have you been using the loo?
Mechatronics engineering
Specialize in engineering superconducting magnets
triangles are most stable, wader always finds its lvl dont build on quicksand.
well i think you are good to go.
data engineering. Information technology won the cold war
The joke is that the previous owner of the store is called Chuck so if you replace "Sneed" with "Chuck" you get "Chuck's Feed & Seed".
Try working for a year before choosing a career, it helped me decide to get electromecanic engineering
Social.
computer engineering or electrical engineering
Choose anything but chemical
>t. chemical
Sandwich or burger. Pay is better long term with benefits
Kinda your choice, anon. A civil engineer who's geared for civil engineering probably wouldn't take to electrical engineering the same way.
How old are you? What do you enjoy doing? What projects excite you? What problems are fun to figure out for you? Chase what interests you with the sole purpose of striking out on your own eventually.
Also all meme flaggots are Israeli shills, so you should probably just go be a janitor or something since your people are about to be wiped out.
Should I Iearn Russian or Chinese? I want to learn a hard language. Help me decide
Go to a fuck china thread and see if you want that reality.
Then go to watch solo solo
>How's the job market for mechanical engineers in the US? Are you doing well anon?
He just told you he is employed since college, 30yo and making 90k. I d say life is good for him...
Civil engineering is pretty god damn dead from what I’ve seen, literally HR stacys earn more money sipping starbucks in make believe meetings.
Mechanical cos ww3 is coming and we're gonna need all the guns and bombs and cool bangy shit we can get.
But afterwards, once all the houses have been destroyed, then you can switch to civil and make money building houses. Win win.
Mechanical engineers make weapons. Civil engineers make targets.
t. boomer
>study an engineering
Start by learning to design a proper fucking sentence.
nuclear engineering
either is a fine choice. you can't really go wrong, since you won't be able to find a job either way.
electric or chemical
Doesn't Chemical fuck up your body
No, just your mind. Being an engineer in general blows.
>t. 10 years in and I hate it
Hey its pretty cool, but it heavily depends where are you soending your time, being a manager fucking sucks ass, thats for sure, but im in the proyects divition and shits cool 70% of the time
I’ve been in projects for 10 years and I hate it. I only did this degree because I needed a job. I’m not interested in technical stuff at all.
Thats really sad to hear man, i honestly like doing projects, the management work i had was the worst.
I hope you find something you dont despise to do some day, i know what it is to work in something you dont like at all
The pay is all the keeps me going but people act like that alone should be enough to make you happy. The best job I ever had that I was happiest at paid me minimum wage in 2004. Unfortunately I made my career choice in one of the worst possible ways. At this point I can’t really do much to change careers. I’m too old for most changes and I am not going back for another degree.
I'm a civil engineer going on almost 20 years now. Get paid well. Have always had good work on interesting projects. Good mix of onsite vs in the office. I'm a retard so dealing with soil, rocks, and concrete suits me. The downside is that I've traditionally done quite long hours probably 11 hours a day on average. I only do 5 days a week these days. Used to usually be 6 days a week but that sucks 5 days is enough of a burden I really need the 2 days off each weekend nowadays. I do get a bit of stress at times which I'm trying to limit because it's damaging to health.
I'd say you can't go wrong with any variant of engineering. Civil is a good choice because the range of jobs you can do with it is very broad and because the government is always going to be funding roads and bridges etc so there's always a demand. The more obscure types like aeronautical and chemical etc would be interesting but I doubt the demand would be as high so job security could be an issue.
Definitely go electrical. Civil is fucked beyond repair. Mechanical is still okay, but work isn't the easy to come by.
civil is the easiest and most popular for that reason
easiest to get a regular office job
lowest average pay
if you do not have the soft skill for law or biz stem in where you go
me shit tier ucsd structural engineering major
male around 150k in socal
i am lazy and do not try all that much

This website will answer most of those questions for you. Good luck fren
Go to HYPS or Oxbridge and earn a proper liberal arts degree; the world will be yours.
My husband is a met. engineer and always says he wishes he would have gone into electrical engineering. Jobs galore.
I’d say going into Geological engineering, or something where you train in GIS would be good. You’d be outdoors a lot of the time if you do it right. Careful which one you choose because you’ll end up an office wagey.
It's not worth your time. A decade ago 50% of engineering grads did not even get placed into employment. It's a lot worse now. Get on welfare and be a leech. It's comfy
The reason for huge unemployment among "graduates" is because of degree mill fake colleges, that have destroyed all the supply demand coherence.
Every retard can now get a degree.
There are limited Jobs, there are very few people with high Intelligence that have a chance in research or higher academics.
Apart from this, the universities (real ones) have failed to update their curriculum with changing technology and industry demands.
if you say so
Engineering has been pretty much killed by the bureaucracy.
Since 70s innovation and development in material world has declined.
Engineering in US is just another dead end job today, from academic pov, study what you like.
Now that's what I call cope
Couldn't hack it in uni? I thought jeets were supposed to be good at maths
Check the US BLS statistics, the demand for engineers has tanked.
Wage has been stagnant for over a decade now, because there is no demand.
Innovation has stopped due to multiple reasons, de-industrialisation reduced a lot of jobs
Vast majority of jeets are low IQ savages, not fit for higher education.
I chose to study mathematics instead, managed to get into the best institution in my shithole country.
My degree is electrical engineering, with minors in computer science and math. If you like working with computers or electronics go with that one. Or just become a programmer like me. I don’t even use my degree now.
my friend got an electrical engineering degree and took a job as a foreman for an electrical company because he couldn't stand being inside all day with a bunch of stiffs
Just pick one and take your basics. You can decide against it or change your major as you go. Waiting to have the perfect idea is a waste of time.

Civil because shits falling apart.
