which engineer branch?

Question

I am majoring in engineering but i dont know which branch to take, any of you know a test or something that will point me to the right direction. Something like a questionare that will ask me some of my skills and then suggest an enginerring branch.

Any help will be appreciate it!

Answer 1

Go to a councillor (spelling?) and ask to take the Meyers-Briggs test, or some other that will tell you where your interests and abilities are. I never believed much in that stuff until I started college.

When I started college I enrolled in electrical engineering, but had problems with a couple of electrical courses, so took one of those tests, and they recommended that I switch my major to Mechanical engineering.

I did, and had much more success with statics, dynamics, heat transfer, thermodynamics and other mechanical courses than I did with the electrical courses.

Answer 2

If you are talented, then your interests should dictate the field. If you don't want to implement, but rather create inventions or create new technologies, maybe you should become a scientist instead of an engineer.

Mechanical engineering is versatile and does not change rapidly over time. Chemical engineering is valuable, but can sometimes be dangerous to your health. Electrical or computer fields are rapidly changing, and this might take more work to stay current.

I'd consider fields that will help us get our of our non-renewable crises in oil and other materials. See "peak oil". In addition to being good, it's bound to be a profitable field for you personally.

Answer 3

I know that when you take your physics course that should help some. The physics courses kind of give a introduction to several fields of engineering (civil,mechanical - statics and dynamics, electrical - electrostatics and magnetostatics, chemical - thermodynamics).

Answer 4

choose mechanical Engg . it has variety of opportunity and further studies
