Final year doing Software development in XIOS (Hasselt in Belgium)
Plan to do some extra lessons in Python during july and august.
After that do 10 weeks of networking (which conveniently gives me a diploma other people would spend 1 year on )

Originally by: Thales Archon I'm currently @ University of Kentucky (UK), and torn between eletrical, mechanical, or civil engineering.
Electrical, same school. Small internet, huh?
Ive been thinking about electrical, atm I'm pretty much pre-engineering, getting all the program requirements, but I'm torn what to go in... Advisor told me to take the intro to engineering to get an idea, but it just made me even more torn :P I know UK offers a Civil Eningeering scholarship, and my college GPA atm is 3.8 so I should qualify. I hate making decisions
The break down is pretty simple,
Civil: Everything is static, and unbelievably boring. Mechanics in Civil are really, really easy. Mechanical: Everything is moving, from rigid bodies to atoms, and you need to be able to visualize 3d very well. Lots of Newtonian physics. Electrical: Use of complex numbers and alot of complex domain problems, programming up the wazzo (I like programming personally), and Kirchoff is your new step-daddy.

You have to have some type of preference...
Me, Civil was interesting, but not my cup of tea. Electrical was equally interesting, but I need to visualize. Mechanical was my thing, as I have always been a builder, creator of physical/mechanical devices. It was an easy decision for me, as I knew from an early age what I was good at... 3D visualization and just overall mechanics comprehension are skills I posses that far outweigh any of the skills I'd need for the other choices... I grew up building stuff, not programing, etc...

I'm also considering what career I'll have for the rest of my life. There are more electrical engineers than any other engineering field. Mechanical, I'm just unsure over it... Materials really interested me when I read into it, and I've read about carbon tubes and how they can be used to make future materials EXTREMELY stronger. And I'm just trying to think of fields that would ALWAYS be useful. Mechanical and Civil seem to be the 2 that stick out. No matter what, there will always be a need for mechanical and civil engineering. I could move off into the middle of no where with no electricity or technology of any kind and still be able to use civil / mechanical skills. And around the area that I'm from theres always a need for chemical engineers. I'm from a town with tons of steel plants and oil refineries and they are always wanting chem engineers...
I dunno... Im probably going to get into Civil.

Civil is a good choice, I just know in my area there are a hell of a lot more Mech Eng jobs available than Civil...
The UNI I went to was hardcore Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering. In fact, a lot of the classes overlap. I'm like 4 classes away from getting a BS in Aerospace Engineering as well if I ever go back to school...
I hear Chemical and Computer Engineering are the most demanding curriculums, and Civil and Electrical are some of the easier ones with Mechanical & Aerospace as the "baseline". At least that was the case at the school I went to...

Electrical engineering is the broadest field of engineering. Its kinda strange that the people that design microprocessors and the people that design the power grid get the same stuff printed on the bachelor's degree. --- Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. - Emerson |

Untrue, Electrical is a derivative of Mechanical Engg. Instead of moving "bodies", you observe, control and make use of moving electrons; nothing more. The broadest discipline is Mechanical Engineering, but only because it is so vague in its definition. The minute the first man tied a rock to a large stick and hit his neighbour in the head to get a better cave, you had Mech. Engg. In our department, we have people doing research ranging from air quality to petroleum (we have an H2S alarm in the mech building, woot.) to nanomachines and robotics.
But, as our design professor told us first year, "It doesn't matter what engineering you take, show your employer that you survived Engineering, and they know you're smart enough to succeed at whatever they give you." Hell, I know a guy that majored in Software Engineering, and is now a Junior Reservoir Engineer (Oil and Gas); as clsoe to apples and oranges as you can get.

Its great being Amarr, and having 27 charisma, isn't it?

Pick up a copy of The Pattern on the Stone by W. Daniel Hillis for a very readable introduction to CS theory.
Find out what language the uni introduces students to programming and pick up an introductory text to get a little head start before start. e.g. For Java: Thinking in Java by Bruce Eckel.
Good luck. - - - PIs and Forensic Accountants: adding risk vs reward for scams and thievery |
