  • In this video I share 5 things that really changed how hard structural engineering is for me. Each of these things helped me to build my confidence and stop feeling like an imposter. I hope they can do the same for you. Enjoy :)

    As a recent graduated who didnt have the chance to do intern work I really missed lots of experience, I have been studying but it is no doubt companies dont want you without prior experience so I have been quite depressed about it. I have been watching your videos and you are so wise for such a young man!! thanks for all the tips.

    Great video! You are spot on - was very hard to handle a simple design task on my first day even though you did great at uni.
    This video would be really helpful for fresh graduates.
    Thanks for doing this!

    love your videos!!. would you mind making a video talking about your first project as a fresh graduate or the tasks u were assigned starting out in detail. I'm perusing my masters but still feel i have inadequate knowledge to start working given the vast information a structural engineer must have.

    Hey bro ...Thanks for your great videos..
    I want to ask you about software programs... Can you make a video about them ... I hear alot about BIM and Revit ... And also I heard about Apacos and Ansys so can you make a video about them and explain what they really do and how to start learning them and the difference between them
    I know you are structural... But can you maybe let us know about BIM and project management
    And thank you for your time

    I am a second year Engineering student. I am actually struggling with managing my time and studying all my modules at once. I have daily classes to attend from 8 am to 12midday , then a one hour break, and then a tutorial session from 2pm to 4:30pm. This actually happens daily from Monday to Friday. What do you think I should go about studying and balancing all my seven my modules. Each day have a tutorial session and a tutorial test for a different module😭.

    • @BEngHielscher
      @BEngHielscher  3 месяца назад +1

      This sounds tough but I think the best thing to do is to try and stay organised and prioritise preparing for the things that will have the biggest impact on your grade. Your time sounds very limited so planning what you need to study each day should allow you to make the most of the short time you have. Hope this helps :)
