Most people have little understanding of what engineering actually is. Engineers have to combine scientific and mathematical knowledge with pragmatic, practical solutions whilst applying commercial acumen. Engineering is a very demanding high paced profession that requires a strong intellect, inventiveness, acute concentration and consistent attention to detail. Engineers apply standards of professionalism to their work that is rarely matched by by other professionals.

the whole time I was watching this video, I kept thinking "This sounds so cool!" I am heavily considering going back to university for mechanical engineering and this video is making me believe that's a good choice, because I always get so excited watching these videos.

Best video! I love the pics helps me see what I’ll be working with. Also helps me pinpoint which type of engineering degree I want to specialize in.

I have started my career at 1984. My the 1st project was to design a storage for neutrons to boost nuclear explosion. 1. Selection of materials to store neutrons for years before a missile would be launched.2. Guarantee neutrons would be stored for years but released simultaneously into active zone of the nuclear warhead to boost chain reaction 3.Drawing and tests at different environmental conditions 4. Selection of processes and development them to deliver neutrons to the active core of the warhead simultaneously etc. My manager used to help me with explosives because I wasn’t certified to work with hazardous materials.

As such, these drawings essentially become legal documents which define terms of a contract. It's in everyone's interest to minimize confusion/ambiguity and ASME Y14.5 is the most comprehensive standard for this. Learning it is akin to acquiring a language. Once fluent, design intent can be communicated precisely and efficiently. Good luck to you!

Very interesting video. Interesting using an iPhone as an example For the people in the comments who are in their first years of school or aren't yet in school for ME I recommend joining clubs such as student racing teams. I joined one of those and even though I didn't give everything I could've given to it, there are some experiences I'd taken for granted that apparently are not that common, such as FMEA analysis, and other things you just don't learn in class, like talking to suppliers, talking to people from other disciplines, talking about money... I specifically say "student racing teams" because the one I was a part of had an "industrialization" component of the project, even though you worked on a physical prototype, you were supposed to think about it with this industrial-production mindset. Some other competitions like robotics etc may differ a bit but they're probably a good idea too.

you have some impressive projects under your belt, how do you tell recruiters that you left foxconn? a red flag for recruiters can be getting a sense that the engineer might not stay long enough to be an effective hire so they'd rather not hire them at all

Which company are you working for?

I've never heard of a school offering two mechatronics programs. EE departments tend to be more rigorous, so I'd go there. Most schools don't even offer mechatronics. Usually, you go to the ECE college and get a job in the mechatronics field from there. Some also come from an ME background, but it's usually more difficult since they don't have the computing background which is integral.

Definitely had a similar experience in my career. I've worked at a handful of engineering companies in product design and the common denominator is that the majority of my engineering time is spent on manufacturability. Knowing in-house capabilities, knowing supplier capabilities and designing the product using that knowledge to meet requirements. Depending on the size of company and production turnover there's a varying emphasis on cost control, how stressful the deadlines are and how much administrative BS there is. Hands-on prototyping in the workshop is what I consider the fun part and paperwork (or meetings where nobody takes responsibility) is the least fun.

Would you recommend pharmacy over engineering?

@mbe55itb

2 ай бұрын

LOL My wife is a pharmacist. She completed her doctorate 20+ years ago and now practices in clinical pharmacy. The nature of work is very different to engineering. Scope of practice is well defined and solutions are established, regulated, and repeatable in daily work. Consequences of mistakes can be severe but generally not catastrophic (death of a patient). The schooling of pharmacy is memory based and trains to follow guidelines and instructions as with most professions in healthcare. Engineering requires the understanding of core physics and technical fundamentals, and then promotes the creative application of these fundamentals. In other words, pharmacy requires one to put in the hours to study. Engineering can be understood with little studying if you just “get it”. But if you don’t, you can spend weeks and months studying and you still fail. Work life balance is variable for both careers depending where you end up. Salaries are comparable. Both careers require team work (peer to peer) and counselling skills (end user/patient). Hope this sheds a bit of light.

@mbe55itb

One supplemental point - an engineer’s reward to doing a good job is that the design is built and “it works”. You can pat your self on the back. “No news is good news” because your end users just expect your build or product to WORK. In clinical pharmacy, if you help with the health care of your patient, they will be very thankful. In retail pharmacy, maybe less because you do not get to know the patient.
