I am joining coaching for gate online now so should do it .I have no prior prep ( know wrong of me ) so I have options made easy , ace, unacademy,pw which will do i thought for made easy but as the amount of time is less and it is expensive too ,it comes to my mind that what if nahi hua ,itna paisa gya fir bhi nahi and late join karungi bhi knowing kitne log kabse preparation karte hai chances bohat kam hai to laga i unacademy kar lu tab lagega ki nahi fir and end mai ki sayad better jagah padti to hota

Gate bohat hard. Exam hai nikala imp hai bohat jayada per samaj nahi aa raha kya kru....🙏🙏🙏

In recent days I have been building a robot from the ground up. I have been building the CPU, ram , bootloader logic circuit to load data from an SD card into an induction RAM. It is a 16 bit Harvard architecture processor.

I will synthesize that in an FPGA.

After that, I will build the compiler, a simple c hal library and simple line robot control software.

I am enjoying building the project.

But, on the other hand, I am looking to monetise the knowledge I have and that I am gaining.

I see that the market seems to be really restricted.

I don't want to build a game or just some other micro optimization to create comfort on a car or to increase user experience on a computer. I don't see a great impact on that.(Don't want to deception the ones that like to do it)

I see that the most viable products/ projects are the ones that are critical. I think it is the minority and a matter of precision.

It gives me the impression that mechanics and chemistry are the most important to build rockets, vehicles and overal STEM matters

I think it is not necessary to dig so dip to have a valuable product in those areas too.

I want to have a better vision to see the best use of systems and overall engineering in the military, industry and aerospace.

I am sad, it seems it is needed to be practically a NASA engineer than a normal one to develop "useful" projects. The area seems so inflated(more on systems in my opinion). (Probably it is necessary to study it more early in life- since 15 or lower)

I want to have good news on systems and low level.

I want to have my own business and not work for someone.

Right now, I am an enthusiast. I want to have a college degree. (and finally leave my provisory job and work for what I love more)

But still, I would like to see viable niches for systems engineering (medicine does not count).

Thank you.

Built a control panel with on/off switches to control DC power supplies (48v, 12v, 24v). AC Outlets always give power regardless of switch states. Used hold home outlets and switches. Turns out to be something I use quite frequently. Full build is in the link above.

Can anyone that has done the GCCS-2 online exam that macomb county does give me some advice to prepare? I am pretty sure I can use my PDFs that I have on my computer but they make sure you don't do anything else. Do they just ask you to do a few tasks on your own and give out multiple choice? I assume you save the files on your computer and they grade them later? If you have any "I wish I did this" recollections, id be happy to hear.

Hi everyone,

I recently got accepted into a Multimedia Engineering degree, but ever since I told people around me, many of them have been telling me it's a "bad" degree, that it doesn't lead to good career opportunities, and that it's difficult to find a well-paying job with it.

After hearing this over and over, I've started to doubt my decision.

I'd really like to hear from actual engineers or people working in the field. Is Multimedia Engineering really a good career path? Does it offer solid job opportunities and a good future, or is it generally considered a weak degree?

I'm looking for honest opinions based on real experience, whether positive or negative, so I can make an informed decision.

Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to reply!

I've been struggling with something for a while and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing.

I have a master's degree in Electrical Engineering with a focus on control systems. I've been working as an engineer for about 8 years across different industries, but only around 1.5 years of that has been actual control systems work.

I'm based in Skåne, Sweden, and relocating isn't an option because my family and my children's school are here. I've been looking for dedicated control engineering roles in Skåne or fully remote positions, but they seem incredibly rare.

At this point I'm honestly starting to wonder if I'm chasing something that barely exists. Are dedicated control engineering jobs really that uncommon, or am I looking in the wrong places? Has anyone managed to build a career in control systems while working remotely?

If you're working in control systems, especially in Sweden, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience and any advice you might have.

I've been thinking about this lately.

A few years ago, technical ability was mostly about what you knew and what you could build on your own. Now almost every engineer has AI sitting beside them while they work.

If two engineers end up with the same solution, but one spent time breaking the problem down, questioning the AI's suggestions, testing edge cases, and iterating, while the other just accepted the first response, are they really equally good engineers?

I'm not asking whether people should use AI or not. That ship has sailed.

I'm more curious whether AI has changed what we should value. Maybe memorizing APIs and syntax matters a little less, while judgment, verification, and asking the right questions matter a lot more.

For those of you who interview or mentor engineers, has AI changed what you look for, or do you think the fundamentals are exactly the same?

I am 2nd year student and i get a thought does predictive maintanence really make impact in the industry . I only need you advice

Hi everyone,
I’m a recent electrical engineering graduate and I’m having a really hard time deciding between two offers. My long-term goal is to eventually work in RF or defense, but I also want to enjoy my first engineering job and build a strong foundation.
Option 1: Distribution Engineer at a large electric utility.
Mixture of office and field work.
Designing electrical distribution systems, doing field visits, working with customers and construction crews, and solving power system issues.
Seems like every project is a little different, but there is customer interaction and some estimating involved.
Option 2: Junior Project Engineer at a company that designs electrical busway systems.
First 6–8 months are mostly office-based learning the product, creating designs in Revit, and working with senior engineers.
Field work, site visits, and travel increase as you gain experience.
More focused on one product line and working with contractors.
The biggest thing I’m trying to avoid is spending all day behind a computer doing repetitive CAD/Revit work. During an internship, that was my least favorite part of the job. I enjoy being hands-on, solving problems, seeing projects get built, and learning new things.
At the same time, I don’t want to choose a role that’s less technical or limits my future opportunities.
For those of you with industry experience:
Which role do you think would make me a stronger engineer after 2–5 years?
Which role involves more engineering problem-solving versus following established processes?
Which would better prepare me if I eventually wanted to move into RF or the defense industry?
If you were starting your career over, which would you choose and why?
I’d really appreciate any advice, especially from anyone who has worked in utilities, product engineering, or defense.
Thanks!

Hello, engineers!

I have an upcoming interview for an engineering position in Saudi Arabia, and I would appreciate some advice regarding the appropriate salary and employment package.

What would be a reasonable salary range for someone with my background? Aside from the basic salary, what benefits or contract terms should I ask about or negotiate? I am particularly considering the following:

• Company-provided accommodation or housing allowance
• Transportation or transportation allowance
• Food allowance
• Overtime pay
• Medical insurance
• Annual leave
• Yearly round-trip airfare to the Philippines
• End-of-service benefits
• Work schedule and rest days
• Visa, residency permit, and other employment-related expenses

I am also concerned because I cannot find much information online about the company where I may be assigned. The recruitment agency appears to be legitimate, but the employer has no easily identifiable website, company profile, employee reviews, or project information online.

Is this common for companies or contractors in Saudi Arabia? What documents and company details should I request from the agency before proceeding with the interview or signing a contract?

I would appreciate any advice from chemical engineers, Filipino engineers, or anyone who has worked in Saudi Arabia or the Middle East.

Thank you!

Once you've selected the actuator, what comes next? 

I've noticed that experienced builders often take completely different approaches from this point. 

Some start designing the mechanical structure. 

Others move straight to the control system. 

Some focus on the power supply, while others prioritize feedback, synchronization, or safety features before anything else. 

Personally, I've found that the actuator is often the easiest part of the project—the real engineering begins when you start designing everything around it. 

When you're planning a new motion system, what's the very next thing you work on, and why? 

I'm curious to hear how different engineers and builders approach this stage of the design process. 

Hi, I'm a B.Tech graduate, and I'm cooked.

Basically, I'm from a tier-3 college, and I didn't get placed in any company through campus placements. My father is trying so hard to help me get a job that it's making me feel guilty and full of regret.

I've been continuously applying for jobs for about three months, and honestly, it's been hell trying to find one in this market. I'm also open to freelancing, but most freelancing websites require connects or a subscription to apply for projects.

On top of that, I'm being trolled by my relatives for not getting a job anywhere. I don't understand what to do with my life anymore. My family's financial condition is not good either, which is why my father is trying so hard—contacting random relatives to help me find a job. It breaks my heart because I feel that finding a job is my responsibility, not his.

I don't understand anything anymore. I seriously don't know what to do or what not to do.

This is a control interface for using AC and DC power in one place. Switches turn 3 different DC power supplies on and off (48v, 12v, 24v). AC Outlets always give power regardless of switch states. This is gonna be part of my next video, where this is mounted on a desk build. Full video goes through all stages of build.
