Many people choose to go into engineering because of the salary they expect to receive, but it's important to put more than just salary into consideration when choosing a career.
It was hard for me at first to choose between all the different engineering disciplines. What I enjoy about Mechanical Engineering is the variety. Each day I'm learning something different, whether it be about electrical systems, computer programming, thermodynamics, mechanics, combustion, HVAC systems, fluids, materials, or pretty much anything you can think of. It also offers a lot of flexibility after graduation. Since mechanical engineers deal with things that move they can be found in almost any industry, in totally unexpected situations. If I had to do it over again, I'd still pick mechanical engineering, but I'd probably take some electrical engineering courses as well. |
