Engineers? (3 Viewers)

[dumarab]

are they really in demand? or is it bullcrap?

 

[Farfour]

Civil is in massive demand as is Electrical.

[dumarab]

HOw about software?

 

[Farfour]

I'm doing it, don't do it.

 

[dumarab]

why?

 

[Riet]

Who can say what will be happening in 5 years time? Unlike engineers, there will ALWAYS be a demand for people with commerce degrees.

 

[dumarab]

but what do people with commerce degrees even do?

 

[Riet]

File reports about what the other people with commerce degrees tell them.

 

[dumarab]

So you recon theres no future in Software Engineering??

shit, i aint good at anything else. Looks like i'm going to b a hobo

 

[Farfour]

Engineers are taking down people with commerce degrees though due to the fact that we can do maths and manage numbers etc.

 

[Riet]

shhh don't tell him that.

 

[squiresshane990]

Engineers are in high demand in management too cos we has good analytical problem solving skills and organisation and shit

*Shudders*
There's this chick at my workplace [Coles] who does Engineering at UWS.
She can't count for shit.
I don't know how that works.
My manager said, "I'm not walking on any bridges she builds!"

 

[wuddie]

yea well she does engineering at uws for a reason.

but yea, engineers have a pretty good employment rate.

Interesting report, but more specifically how are software engineers in the market?

shit i thought heaps of people do engineering at uni. I guess i was wrong .

 

[jb_nc]

I am an engineer!

I design pipes and heat exchangers and shit. I also manufacture methamphetamine in my clandestine lab by reducing pseudoephedrine with hydrogen iodide and red phosphorus.

Im actually looking into putting engineering as a preference for uni and I was wondering a few things. Im a little bit reluctant to put it as a preference for a few reasons. Firstly, I dont actually KNOW much about it. Secondly, the subjects I currently do at school don't meet the assumed or recommended knowledge for civil engineering. e.g. they require 'maths extension 1'...I do general..LOL.

I dont do any sciences (bio, chem, phy) and I have no idea what to expect when I get to engineering at uni (assuming I put it as a pref and make it).

However, I do top all my classes and generally do well. If I do get there, i'll probably be relying on tiresome studying (yet again)..lol.

So what do you guys think? Would I be able to handle it? Would it be too much? Im hoping someone with some knowledge of uni engineering helps.

P.S Im looking at putting Civil at UTS - 85.00 UAI
