wisetech Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 what is system engineering all about. what is electrical engineering and mechanical engineering? how useful are they and also the job opportunity . because i have a computer background i have CCNA, CCNP, MCITP, AND RHCE certifications. i want to do engineering. i need some advice
Eyvind Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 You can do almost anything in engineering but if your area is computers area electrical engineering and mechanical engineering are a very god choice for you! In electrical engineering you use electric and electronic components to develop and/or improve systems (anything from industrial machinery to product develoment), usualy there's programing involved. Mechanical engineering is using mechanical components, fisics and some math to make/improve/control systems (ANYTHING!!). Normaly there's at the least an intruduction to electrical, quemical and other types of engineering in mechanical engineering. If you put the 2 of them and your computers skills together you have automatic/semi-automatic systems engineering! This is developement/improvement of automatic/semi-automatic systems trough the use of mechanical, eletric and eletronic solutions.
CaptainPanic Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Job opportunities in almost all engineering are fine - perhaps better than almost any field. There is a lack of engineers worldwide.

With all due respect, what do you mean that you "want to do engineering" if you don't know what engineering is? Maybe some examples from you would demonstrate what your intentions.

In some circumstances it involves logistics and requirements tracking. In many aerospace circumstances it is interdisciplinary and involves the definition and allocation to subsystems of requirements for complex products, and management of the technical development of the product. In other circumstances it is a highly mathematical outgrowth of modern control theory, abstract computer science and information theory. 1
wisetech Posted April 6, 2011 Author Posted April 6, 2011 Thanks guys i will check out for Mechanical or electrical engineering. Well , a personal experience. Among all the exams i have ever sat for. RHCE was one of the most difficult. A 5 hour exams based on fixing a broken Linux Red hat system.
