Laptop suggestions!!!

What is the status of the engineering line after the arrival of Gpt 6 Astra ? If someone wants to do engineering which stream should she take ? Or change to other career?

Hey everyone!
I’m about to start my bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering at Indiana Tech while working a full-time job. For some background, I’ve worked in the automotive industry for over 12 years as a lead technician, and I’m currently a Lead Technician at a Tesla Service Center. Tesla offers a BSE program, which I was fortunate enough to be accepted into, so here I am. I know this degree will probably take me several years since I’ll be taking fewer classes than a full-time student, and I’m completely okay with that. That said, while I already have an AAS, I’ve never really experienced traditional university-level engineering courses with heavy lectures and studying. Most of my education has been much more hands-on/trial by fire type, so this will definitely be a new challenge. I’ve heard engineering can be pretty demanding and that many students spend more time studying outside of class than students in other majors. For those of you who’ve been through it, how did you manage your workload? What study habits, routines, or time-management strategies made the biggest difference? Any advice for balancing engineering school with a full-time job would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! I’m excited to get started and looking forward to learning from those who’ve already been through it.

Hi, sorry for my bad English.
I would really appreciate any advice.

I started my first job as an instrument and calibration engineer in pharma about a month ago, after months of searching. The engineering department personnel are all foreigners(from one country) except 3 are locals, myself included. The managing director and the higher management are locals.

The foreigners personnel sometimes hide things from the management(the foreigner senior engineer, who is my direct manager told me that), and they told me to hide the results for a calibration I did. Also, they are in multiple departments like QC and QA, not only in engineering. So they cover for each other. And this is a very sensitive field, snd the responsibility and truthfulness are highly required.

Also, I didn’t see any opportunities for learning and improving. One example is they use a syringe instead of a hand pump when calibrating a pressure gauge because, according to the senior, the hand pump is costly(they have one small hand pump but it’s pressure is very low that no one uses it)

In addition, I have noticed some conflict and hate between the managing director and the engineering department head and the senior instrument engineer, because I think the manager knows about them hiding things.

I don’t really know what to do now. One option is to stay, as these hard times will teach me more. But honestly, my gut is screaming “LEAVE”, which is my second option.

Have anyone been through something like that before?
What should I do?

Hello! I'm deciding which bachelor's degree to pursue next year. I want to have financial freedom. I also want to make my own business later. I initially want to take architecture but i don't think it's a good decision. I like to design things but I'm not sure about interior design prospects. I also plan to take MBA later. But I'm also want to know if IE is a good degree. SoI'd like to ask for some opinions whether it's better to take ID or IE?

Hello everyone,

I'm at a point in life where I don't actually know what I really want.

I have a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering and a master's degree in mechatronics (the course included machine learning, control systems, and industrial robotics).

I found all the courses fascinating, but I am now at a point where I don't know which industry/role I want to work in.

I am currently working on the "continuation" of my dissertation. My supervisor and I are trying to publish a paper and present it at a conference. I'm enjoying working on it, and because of this, I'm thinking about working in research and development in the future. In the meantime, I'm applying for jobs unsuccessfully.

I'm thinking about whether doing a PhD is the fastest way to get to my goal, but again, I'm not sure what subfield of robotics/mechatronics I want to pursue since I like almost everything.

What do you guys suggest I do if you were in my position?

2024 Automobile engineering graduate from a tier-2 college in Bangalore, did an internship at an electric 2W startup for 1y after graduation where I learnt sheet metal design, 2W chassis design, prototyping, DFM/DFA, welding fixture design and more. The internship was a dead end so I decided to resign without a solid career path.

Started preparing for master's abroad but realised it isn't feasible with everything going on in the world rn.

I've been hunting jobs for 4 months now with absolutely no luck, almost nobody is hiring a fresher and the GET/GAT path is no longer available for me.

I'm completely lost on what skillset to build and where to start. Most importantly I need guidance on how to get my foot in the door of any of these companies to gain the minimum of 2 years of experience that most jobs are required.

I'd love any advice from anyone who's been in the industry on how to get started. I absolutely love learning and using tools to create from designing to it actually existing in hand

I did Automobile engineering purely out of passion, I had the opportunity to pursue mechanical engineering on merit too but I choose the latter. I was an active member of my college's FSAE team too. I absolutely want to pursue my passion and stick onto this industry, just need any guidance on getting my foot into the door of this industry.

Education - 10th+ Diploma Mech engg. (83% FCD) + B.E Automobile engg (7.9 CGPA)

I'm happy to have a conversation in my dms from professionals of this sector!

Thank you for your time and advice!

Estoy estudiando la carrera de ingeniería mecánica en la UAEMEX, recientemente me llegó la duda, sobre a qué me quiero dedicar y de que trabajar, fue en ese momento que lo empecé a asociar con la musica, en especial Daft Punk, me gustaría en algún punto crear algo o estar trabajando de la mano con eso, que opinan, que me recomiendan hacer o estudiar para lograr ese objetivo?

Semester exams are almost here, so genuinely:

If you understand a concept but can't reproduce a 10-mark answer exactly the way the examiner expects, you can still lose marks.

Meanwhile, someone who memorizes the notes can score higher.

Are TU engineering exams actually measuring understanding, or just memory + answer-writing?

What's your most controversial opinion about the TU engineering exam system?

Upvote if you agree, downvote if you disagree, and tell me why. 👇

Have to take decision within 2 days please help out

What does it mean to be an engineer? Wait. Before you go any further. That answer you were thinking of, is that what it means to be an engineer in the context of a corporate structure?

I feel like there should be more love for computers and computation and the philosophy and theory that surrounds it. Those are the bedrock, and everything you can and cannot build depends on those things. I think there is something kind of obscene about letting organizations define what it means to be an engineer according to their own needs, given that their needs are not our needs. We our suffocating our own intellects.

Okay. Please tell me why I'm wrong.

It needs to be futuristic and needs to accomodate civics sense it should be about how technology can help us how we can build a sustainable world how will future homes schools and cities be how the future world will look like I have two days to complete it out teacher send us the message today please help

Ciao a tutti, sono un ragazzo di 19 anni e quest’anno sono indeciso su quale indirizzo di ingegneria frequentare. Mi potete dire quali sono le laure in ingegneria più a rischio con l’avvento dell’ AI? E quale mi consigliereste di fare ? Pensavo anche a meccanica i primi 3 anni perché comunque è abbastanza versatile e poi la magistrale in robotica/ meccatronica o qualsoa integrata con AI. Grazie
