Mechanical vs Electrical Engineering

There are 5 main branches of engineering: Mechanical, Electrical, Software, Chemical, and Civil. So, in this video, we’ll compare the two most popular ones: Mechanical and Electrical. If you’re deciding between these two majors OR maybe you’re just curious to know a little more about each…this video is for you. If you’re also curious to know which is harder, you’ll find your answer in this video! Timestamps are as follows:

    Please don't worry about job opportunities for either of them. I am graduating this semester in EE, and I am getting an average of 2 interviews per week from companies like Tesla, GM, SpaceX, and startups. Just love your craft and be good at it and you will be sought after, and you will make great things!

The way you advised on how to choose a course to persue by looking at the topics one enjoyed in high school, was incredible. Lastly, giving us an open mind on how u can relate the two(ee & me) no matter wat u specialise in, is a very big motivation in the engineering field. Long live science.

    I think what's great about engineering is that you get a general understanding of all branches and can basically just choose what you want to work with depending on what you enjoy, regardless of what education you chose. I was struggling a lot with choosing either ME or programming. I then learned about CFD where I use all the knowledge of my ME degree, but basically write code all day.

I went into the HVAC field because I wanted to troubleshoot. I then started learning some python and html.

Anyways I'm rambling but seriously I hope everything goes well for you.

    At least in Australia, a big part of electrical engineering is working with power (which is something you didn't discuss - perhaps it's less of a focus area in American universities). A lot of the electromagnetism that we learn is to prepare us for working with power lines, converting electrical power into mechanical work through motors (and vice versa for generators), and safely and efficiently transmitting power across large distances. I'd personally break down the career trajectories of EE into: 1. Power engineer - You'll be working in industry or on the power grid, on the generation, transmission or use of electrical power. This can mean maintaining the grid, helping companies select the right motor for a particular application, integrating a new housing development or building into the grid (and modelling power consumption, etc) 2. Analog - This is really the heart of EE. This involves designing electronic circuits using Resistors, Capacitors, opamps, etc. A lot of analog circuitry relates to communications, audio and power (converting AC to DC) 3. Digital/Embedded engineer - heavily programming focused; your job will be to design programs that will be run on microcontrollers and interact with sensors. There are also audio and Telecommunications engineers, who are have an EE qualification

    There is also a control engineering aspect that you can divert from basically any engineering branch, and it is more like applied math. Also, after graduation, you can say I decided to change my major and do graduate study in any composite engineering branch. You can study anything with just 1 extra year of preparation. I am talking with professors ranging from biology - EE - ME - biomechanics - biomedical etc. All of them seem plausible for graduate study. So maybe just focus on math and do 1 or 2 good enough projects in it?

    Hi Tamer! I know that you’re not an electrical engineer and are a mechanical engineer, but I was wondering if you help me with a project I’m trying to build. Recently, I’ve been trying to build an electric bike for a school project, and I’ve been running into problems regarding sparking and fire. For the bike, I bought a 350w 24v electric motor that comes with a gear sprocket attached to it. I plan to mount a similar but larger sprocket on the rear wheel and attach a chain connecting the rear wheel’s sprocket to the motor’s sprocket, which will in theory turn the bike. The battery im using is a 22.2v 1400mah lipo battery that has a xt60 connector. The motor has 2 exposing wires to power the motor with, so in order to connect the battery to the motor, I bought a xt60 to wire adapter to connect both of them. I also bought a small electric switch to turn on and off the motor when I use it. Everything seemed to make sense, until I decided to plug it in. When the parts came, I attached the battery to the adapter, and the adapter to the motor, and then a loud spark occurred. The motor powered on and still works till this day, but everytime I connect everything, a loud spark occurs, and some of the connectors have burn marks on them. Everything works well, but a spark occurs everytime and leaves burn marks on some of the connectors, and once started a small fire. Is it possible if you could tell me why this is occurring, and what to do to fix it?

    One thing I always note on these videos that talk about ME or EE, is that they always focus on product development stuff. The description of these fields is quite different in the heavy process industries (oil and gas, pulp and paper, specialty chemical, mining, power generation, etc.). I do partially blame that on the universities because they push things like mechanitronics super hard but often neglect things like thermal fluid process design (quite different from HVAC).

    I'm a licensed ME so I'm a bit biased obviously, but I actually bothers me when I see this type of thing because it paints a ridiculous picture of what ME is as a profession. I don't make keyboards, I make power plants. I'm sure that there is some ME involved in the development of headphones, but that is such an unusual example that it's hardly worth mentioning. It seems like the majority of people who make videos like this are fresh out of school and have virtually no idea what industry is actually like.

    I understand where you're coming from. Working in heavy process industries is something that mechanical and electrical engineers can do as well and I probably should've talked more about it. The reason I didn't mention it as much was because I have been exposed mainly through the tech side of mechanical and electrical engineering. Also, with this video, I'm trying to show that engineering isn't all heavy, dirty, and bulky machinery...but it can actually have an aesthetic side too.

    @@TamerShaheen ME is so broad and the overlap with EE is becoming much greater as ME programs adapt to technological changes, so there will be exceptions to anything you say. With that said I think it should be mentioned that the mathematics in ME depend largely on the emphasis. The fluids, thermo, and heat transfer route have mathematics with difficulty on par with anything in electrical, especially at the graduate level where many of those courses reside. It sounds like you got a small taste from your 3rd year fluid mechanics course as you had a note of 'lots of math'. Also a robotics emphasis has programming on par with the electrical majors as well with industry wages to match. But your video was looking most at the manufacturing emphasis and contained good content from that angle. Just a few ideas for future videos.. overall nice video.

You would alternate between school and work terms for those five years. For example: Sep - Dec 2016 (School Term) Jan - Apr 2017 (Co-op Term) May - Aug 2017 (School Term) Sep - Dec 2017 (Co-op Term) Jan - Apr 2018 (School Term) …etc This will repeat until you complete 6 co-op work terms!
