Went to school for Audio engineering for 2 semesters. My professor even told us basically not to get this degree. Glad I eventually found Computer Information Systems and now I’m a Software Developer.

Great video! Electrical Engineering major here, practically everything you need for audio engineering is taught in Electrical, Electronics, or Computing Engineering. In fact, audio-related projects are relatively popular among those who majored in the aforementioned.

When shaine said "companies know theyre getting someone very smart, very hard working and they know how to teach themselves because engineering professors don't" I felt that to the core man... Sums up my entire 1st year. I was hit with the harsh reality that to survive most of engineering you have to self teach yourself or really on others for help if you really want to understand.

I have a welding engineering technology degree. It is an amazing field with really good pay. The reason it is so low is because there has been a shortage of welding engineers so many smaller companies were calling lead technicians or foreman "welding engineers" instead of degree welding engineers. I had no trouble making six figures in aerospace as a welding engineer.

Me watching this as a second year environmental engineering student. 👁💧👄💧👁

[notsalman]

I already graduated with a computer engineering degree why I’m I watching this?

[williamgalbraith]

Gonna “stache” this video away for another day.

[jeremiahm]

The grey hairs I got at age 29 for getting my electrical engineer degree were worth it more and more everyday....

[iamToole]

Why am I watching this: I'm starting to think that the worst decision I made my life was to have a bachelors and Masters in Aerospace engineering from England. Its been 2 years now and no one would employ me. I returned from England to live in a 3rd world country where they have no business with Aerospace engineering. I could have stayed back in the UK and break immigration rules but I chose to always stick to rules but now I'm stranded, basically no life, everyday is emotional distress for me . So a piece of advice is if you're from a 3rd world country, choose wisely, things are different when you get back home and no one cares about you. Ps. I graduated as a top student as well. Anyways keep Trying! Never stop!

Welding Engineering Technology student here. I have a couple thoughts. Just because something isn't popular doesn't mean that it isn't good or useful or lucrative. The reason Welding Engineering is not popular is because welding as a trade can be SO lucrative, and so no welder wants to go to college and due a ton of math, physics, and chemistry. On top of that, being skilled at welding takes a lot of time and skill, most students would rather get a manufacturing engineering degree and not suffer through the welding classes and hands on experience you need to achieve the minimum skill level. That being said, welding engineering can pay very well. Most of my friends who have graduated have had starting salaries around $75, 000, but some have had starting salaries up to 95, 000 (that guy got a job working on navy submarines). And that is fresh out of college!

Dude, I was about to choose biomedical engineering but then I decided to choose computer engineering

[kolkena]

Engineer here.

Steer clear of any "engineering technology" degree. They're not real engineering degrees! They're not ABET-qualified and many employers won't recognize them and that includes DOD (which hires tens of thousands of engineers.)

[SpeedyCheeze]

Engineering technology is a great choice if you want to start your career after college and not stay in academia. You take the same EIT/FE exam to become a professional engineer

[crazyahhkmed]

When it comes to engineering and engineering technology degrees(bachelors), it's best to stick with electrical, mechanical, computer and civil.

[muhammadkafkaal-ghifari]

Sad to see my major (Environmental Engineering) is present here (︶︹︺) , gotta disagree a little bit as my school offered some minors in Civil Engineering so perhaps my major isn't too niche at all and environmental engineers in my country, a third-world country, are pretty much non-existent. Thanks for the info though, truly appreciate it.

[ahorowitz]

Side note: anything that's "engineering technology" likely isn't accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission, but rather the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission. So if you'd want to get your Professional Engineer certification, it would take twice as much work experience to qualify. Eight years instead of four. That's if they're accredited at all. If not, then they're pretty much worthless.

[alexisyuren]

Awesome video bro! You covered some really important points about choosing an Engineering degree.

[Pauldyke]

“Engineering Technology” degrees are not real engineering degrees. You are awarded a bachelors in technology (B.Tech) not a bachelors in engineering (B.Eng).

I just want to say that while I genuinely do like your channel (like a lot) I do think that you can be a little harsh to biomedical engineering. While I completely understand that you're basing everything you're saying off of the numbers, I do think that there is a lot of growth happening in this field that hasn't been reported yet. I'm speaking as a BME grad who landed a 6 figure job out of college in my field (building robots basically), so I am definitely biased. I just wanted to throw that out there but I am a really big fan of your channel!
