  Engineering, General:

General engineering at my university was actually a great choice for me. Some students prefer to focus on a specific field -- mechanical, electric, civil, computer etc. The GE program rolled together a good working knowledge of mechanical and electrical concepts that really prepared me for an engineering position -- not only as a technical contact, but as a problem solver in general.

In the core Engineering group, this is the best course.In case if you get selected ,you should ask for PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore,Tamilnadu,India.You will really love this course at PSG. I will surely recommend studying this. If I have to do over again still I will choose this degree at PSG. Doing this course one will surely get an employment in a good company.No regret.

For those of you considering this major, pleas please please make sure it is what YOU truly want to do. Don't let parents, boyfriends, girlfriends, friends, etc. influence you. In my personal experience, this was not a major that I wanted to do. As a result, I had a miserable time suffering through the classes. If I could do it over again, I would most certainly pick something that I wanted. However, if you believe this major is truly for you, some advice: Do ALL the homework problems. I know this is stressed in every class that you take, be it middle school, high school, or college. However, doing the problems will seriously further your understanding of the subject. In addition to the assigned problems, it is highly recommended that you do unassigned problems too. The major is not tough if you truly want to learn the material. Another tip: for engineering classes, there are generally solutions manuals floating around for all textbooks. However, I HIGHLY recommend that you DON'T use them!! It may be okay for checking your answers, but you may get in the habit of relying on it to finish a last minute assignment instead of trying out the problems yourself. By the end of the semester, all you have are the solutions, but no knowledge of the material. That's all I have to say. Enjoy yourself!

The important thing is to keep update the newest technology. And you should have a good mathematic background. At least B. This major is fun, i studied a lot of things. I learnt that electrical is the most applicable major recently. So many developments we have and will be occur. May be i'd choose this again.

Eventhough some people lost their job due to the economic crisis, the development of every fields have their roots in the computer engineering. After the problem of crisis is solved, there will be a great demand for the people graduated from this department. I recommend people to start studying in this department for a better future. But you have a limited choices of getting offer in any other field if you want to switch over.

  Chemical Engineering:

This is a difficult major, but the rewards of the major are great. The opportunities opened up through chemical engineering are enormous. However, I don't think I'm an engineer, and if I had to choose my major again, I probably would not have gone into chemical engineering. It is a fulfilling degree to obtain and will open lots of jobs in the future though.

A EET degree is a great well rounded education. However be aware it is not a "real" engineering degree unless it is accredited by the ABET. This is key if you want to become a PE, Professional Engineer. I found although the degree was challenging enough and interesting enough it was not a good fit for me. I need to be kept busier and not sit at a desk all day. A fun pro though...you get to rub it in peoples faces the fact that you know calculus!

  Chemical Engineering:

If I had my time back, I would have not picked anything different. I loved this program and I am currently working in the oil industry. It's exciting work, and it's ever-changing, so there's always something new to learn. I read in a study that Chemical Engineers are the highest paid of the engineers! And, if that doesn't catch you... we get spiffy rings! Watch out for your Heat Transfer class though, that's a tough one!

Very rewarding major, but very difficult. If you relish a challenge, go this rout. I definitely think it's much more rewarding that when you finish designing something, it's an actual, physical object that does something interesting (as opposed to software engineering).

  Mechanical Engineering:

This is the broadest engineering degree, giving the most flexibility in choosing a career path. I think the best point to take away from this degree is that its not the calculations you learn that make an engineer. Instead, you learn HOW to learn from an engineer's perspective. After finding a position in industry, the first thought that runs through your mind is "Wow, in schoool I didn't learn anything about the stuff they do here. How am I going keep up with these other guys???!". That is perfectly normal. Your schooling really only taught you how to adapt and take in new information in an engineering manner.

Every day is like being in school for mechanical engineers. Continual learning, experimentation and application of engineering principals. What a blast!

  Computer Engineering, General:

Tips: Make sure your GPA is above 3.0 if you want to get a good job out of college. I would recommend studying computers since it creates logical thought that permeates into all aspects of life. I would choose this major again. Pros: Excellent starting salary, interesting subject matter, I can go to med school or law school with this degree too Cons: If engineering becomes very competitive, it may make you overqualified to work another job since they'll probably want to pay someone less

  Engineering Physics:

Physics is an excellent foundation for any science or engineering degree. Engineering Physics focuses on the applicable principles and can be used in almost any engineering job as well as other jobs. Plus when you say you studied physics people think you are smart (potentially smarter than you are).

  Materials Science:

Materials science is a subject which first involves a fair amount of theoretical work, but as you progress you see more and more application for what might at first have seemed abstract ideas.
If you enjoy both physics and chemistry and also bits of engineering, this is a subject to consider seriously.
The subject is very broad, with uses in medical engineering, structural and civil engineering, the development of new materials for all types of applications, jet engines, the list goes on...
Materials scientists are in demand all over the world for companies, and it open many doors to different types of jobs. The only negative I can think of: having to keep explain to people just what materials science is! (It's stuying different materials and their uses, and trying to optimise them, in case you don't know!)

  Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering:

Electronics and communication engineering course will lay a strong foundation for our electronics related knowledge growth.This major can taken because as in this major we will cover lot of basic idea of hardware devices.This idea would help us to work in both software and in hardware industry.If I get a chance to do my education,I will definitely take this course and also opt to study MS in Networking.As far as I experienced I don't find any difficuties after acheiving the degree in this major.It always helped me in my work career too.

  Engineering, General:

General Engineering was a good major if you knew that you want to major in engineering but didn't know what kind of specialty you wanted to focus on. It gave a broad overview while ensuring I had the core engineering subjects such as the maths and physics covered. It also gives you a broad choice of classes to help determine which field you wanted to enter. I had more flexibility on what courses I wanted to take compared to my counterparts who already had chosen a specialty. The issue is that it's a very broad undergraduate degree. You will definitely need to get a graduate-level degree if you want to work in a certain field.

  Systems Engineering:

If you'd like to pick Systems Engeneering as your major, you'll be well rewarded in your professional life, but be prepared since it won't easy street you'll be on. I have a job in this field now and if I had to do it again, I'd still go for it because now it's never boring. On the flip side there's the small matter of the 4 years of teeth grinding it took me to get here. But you need to see the big picture here and hang in there till you get your parchment with your name written on it. You could do a lot worse at picking your major than Systems Engineering

Interesting Fact
In 1970, the percentage of college freshmen who considered themselves "liberal" was twice that of "conservative". Today, the percentages are nearly equal.
