"Mechanical engineer is outdated"
Okay, let's see you code a billet into existence out of thin air
No, but the matrix administrator might can do that.
It involves coding
Abe bdsk, mechanical engineering is really outdated.
No good jobs.
Even autocad is a “software designed by computer science people
@@rv264 Don't do uneducated comments.
Mech engineer can be a software engineer But a software engineer cant be mechanical engineer.
I'm a CS major but Mechanical Engineering is not "slightly outdated" imo. Any type of machinery will always have mechanisms
I mean its not gonna stop being useful; but he is right that CS has faster industry growth and is a fresher industry that has more potential.
@@grumpyyellowfang3344 CS having faster growth doesn't change the fact that mechanical engineering is not slightly outdated, which is the claim I refuted.
@@grumpyyellowfang3344 mechanical engineering is not just mechanisms, basically everything that srrounds us except for buildings is mechanical engineering. The structure of everything is mechanical engineering. If computer industry will grow also mechanical engineering will grow because all the components have to be assembled together. Mechanics is in everything because it's a very large part of physics
Most mechanical engineers will be able to code soon anyway as it’s being added to the syllabus so it is definitely staying in date
Yeah it's not outdated at all but his head is in the right place and he seems to be going to college for the right reasons.
I'm from CS and believe me, don't choose CS. I even regret not taken any engineering major (like civil / mechanical) because it's a waste of money. If you pursue the knowledge of CS, you better learn online or go take specialized courses, the knowledge you'll learn from the major is not worth it.
I already working on IT Industry when I took my univ, and I came out without any new major knowledge.
Whose gonna build the hardware
Electrical engineers?
Manufacture a keyboard without machines..
Dudes are pissed because a random guy said mechanical engineering is old. y’all can’t take criticism 😭😭😂😂
Little bro is laughing crying face emoji over that one
outdated? The moment we say any engineering is outdated we're fvck.
True, engineering is much more important.
yea, although its probably because of the money too. Why go for mechanical when CS earns more?
@@boreddude3898 how about interest, passion and academic inclination?
I love my field and study, and absolutely hate writing and debugging code (also super mid at it), wouldn’t be happy in CS.
In mechanical engineering I can design things that will be physically created, think of the possibilities, I find that WAYY cooler. But I’m sure plenty CS folk feel the same way about CS.
@@McFlashh hard to think how our current infrastructure could operate without either. Engineering definitely Cs’s daddy thoe.
@@madlad1. I mean fair point, idk. I'm studying EE and shooting for RF engineering, not that I care for it but more for the money. I mainly said that earlier though to explain why not as many people go into ME, which itself is super important and should be given more love IMO
Actually the thing with mechanical is that no-one is ready to provide internship or training but needs fully talented engineers
The worst part is that these industries don’t quantify what fully talented engineers are.
They always need people with 70 years of experience
Found an intership after sending100ish CVs. But it's fun !
Exactly 😐😔
As an aerospace engineering graduate - yes. People are only looking for X years of experience. After struggling for five years I'm studying something else now. Thanks engineering
Mechanical engineering is the base of all engineering tbh.
Not quite. Civil Engineering takes that title. Without civil engineering, we wouldn't have the many other forms of engineering that we have today such as Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Military Engineering, Automobile Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Automobile Engineering, etc.
@@cxarhomell5867 Civil and mechanical are similar, however mechanical is more important. Civil only deals with static structures (which don’t move), whereas mechanical deals with high static and dynamic (that do move) structures.
@@mikhaelgrigoryev5638 didn’t know that was even a profession. Shouldn’t you be called an optician?
@@McFlashhYou are argued base. Without civil engineering civilisations wouldn’t exist and we’d be still living in caves. It is both the oldest and most important. If we didn’t have houses, no one would’ve had the drive to design things that move much less discover electricity.
@@cxarhomell5867both are important
Its not the major that is outdated. Its the mentality of the crowd that shifted from Mechanical to CS coz of workforce demand. Also, there are always things to pursue in every field. (Not everything possible is discovered or invented yet)
The first step to make great decisions is to stop listening the Crowd.
Someone plz give Prize to this man.
@@kaushalsehgal2475 i thought u said pizza
The thing is M.E doesn't really have much jobs in the market when compared to C.S and on top of that there's a huge pay gap
@@adilmk128 Here is the data - around 18K ME Job Posting are posted every year in USA. And if you think you are so incompetent enough that you won't be able to land one of them then there is something wrong.
You are a single guy and can do a single job, so if you are passionate and good at it, you will definitely land it.
@@adilmk128 most of the machinery we need(Ed) is already built
Nowadays, just building the machine isn’t enough since they all each need to have their own CPU’s and softwares with Wi-Fi capabilities and their own app
Behold, the unholy love child of mechanical engineering and computer science: MECHATRONICS
Actually its more like the love child of electronics and mechanical. Mecha-nical, elec-Tronics.
@@ogun3378 Yep
@@ogun3378 you said the n word 💀
mechatronics have little to do with computers, so as ogun said
How about MECHASCIENCE
I once told someone I am studying mechanical engineering, he said "Ah working on making the world shittier" referring to old school energy consumption and shit. Best part is I did an internship in renewable energy 🤣
Lmaoooo, they don’t know what it’s all about bro.
Even ME in non renewable are trying to make their practice more efficient. driven by cost reduction but can reduce emissions.
It's sad that they dont know that ME and EE graduates can go into most engineering industries. So they can make medical devices etc. Some people are so ignorant
They don’t know shit about ME lmao.
The world shittier? Hell nah some of us want to burn this world and sold our soul to defense industry
Remember morale compass can't keep the light on 😉
My freshman year of engineering, I had an English professor tell me to my face “engineers make the world a shitter place” right after telling the class “the only thing that separates us from the monkeys is running water and electricity” I don’t know, but something tells me that those systems wouldn’t exist without engineers. Oh well, he ended up failing me just because he didn’t like me lol.
Never trust a DJ that can’t think of anything to say but tik tok lol
actually he is reffering to a song, not to the app itself
@@petrurk6835 that’s kinda even worse 🤣
But what he said it's true, rn TikTok runs the radio
@@yaz3858 if your a DJ or listen to a dj and they only play stuff from the radio, then hate to break it to you but that’s not a real dj lol
@@relate97 man, interviewer asked him for a song banger and the guy responded TikTok runs the radio, you don't need to overlook it 😑😑😑
First dude prolly codes in air since according to him mechanical is outdated 💀
Yeah, not like he rides in a car or plane to college, and then uses a phone, GPS, or literally anything else designed in part by a Mechanical Engineer
Those all go to computer systems engineering now since they’re all integrated systems
Maybe he's talking about the prospects of jobs in CS which is far more promising than Mech jobs
@@duckymomo7935 huhhh? CE and ME work alongside each other in all of those.
@@duckymomo7935 eh? Mech works alongside
That guy clearly didn't understand mechanical engineering 😂
Him: mechanical engineering is outdated
Mean while Manufacturing, production,design, Mechatronics,robotics industry: Are we a joke to u -_-
You are right but 70% of mechanical engineers in india are unemployed. If any of the luck when job gets with 4 years experiance only pays 25000 if any is going choose mechanical engineering you want sure that you are ultimately skilled
With love
unembloyed ROYAL mech engineer🥲
Agree, not to mention semiconductors/chips (material science), material reliability, vibration, metamaterials, or even improving existing engines before they can be entirely replaced by electronic systems in the next few centuries. This dude just doesn’t do his own research.
What is the difference between robotics and mechatronics?
@@MinhNguyen-ew9qx In a few centuries to come, the field of Mechanical Engineering will have integrated with Electronics. Electric motors for example are still a work of Mechs since it still involves physical motion even when the principles applied are originally from EE
@@eren_yeager9927 Mechatronics is already the fusion of Mechanics and Electronics. Mechanical Engineering still exists as a separate field, however.
Mechanical engineering isn't even just machinery, we do so much programming and mathematical modeling
Tesla hires mechanical engineers so do every car company.
I'd say a vast majority of us don't have to code, but some of us certainly do.
Computer science has to be on every discipline now
talk to your machinist
Not to mention thermal dynamic applications like Refrigeration units, furnaces, coolers, ACs, and HVAC
Mechanical engineering being outdated is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard 😂😂
@@rohinimishra9437 still the field isn't outdated and it can never be
It's not outdated but it's just CS has way more jobs.
@@ripvanmarston1241 and way more applicants
Mechanical teachings and course syllabus is outdated
If we have learnt coding then it will be a good use
@@rohinimishra9437 pay gap being bigger doesn’t mean mechanical engineering will ever be a bad career choice. Not everyone wants to code all day, things will always need to be fixed and created!
Give it 10 to 15 years the entire CS department is gonna be oversaturated with candidates. Way too many newbies and not enough secure jobs
Are ya sure cuz demand juz seems to be increasing year on year here in india
I was thinking the sane. Everyone gonna join it and it never gonna be jobs in it
@@SS-eu2ef the demnad is high for now, but with AI basically replacing human requirements for basic to intermediate codes, most newbies wont have a place to start from
Your problem isn't too many people, your problem is too many people with no work place experience and nobody wanting to take company time to make sure they know how to do their jobs properly without supervision, that's your problem. Too many with the same exact degree and no work experience either at all or in that field of study.
No mechanical engineer, no rockets, no oxygen cylinders, no bridges, no fan, no AC, no car, almost no nothing of 80% of the world we know today. No cs engineers, no probs learn something else
I love this, but mechanical engineering can be done by people who didn't go to school
@@bluice2776 lol I can say for a fact u don't know anything about mechanical engineering, specially engineering not what Indian colleges teaches. For subjects like heat transfer everyone can understand conduction, but calculating conduction based material properties and time varying condition needs a PhD for all cases, similarly flow dynamics a small mistake people die, now thermal power plant without thermodynamics it's nothing, and it's not just basic 2nd law application in depth is next level. I'm not saying this because of ur opinion on ME but I honestly feel u don't need schooling for cs engineering , basic maths with 6 months course we can pretty much get any job, with some experience anything can be done right
Engineering will never be outdated. what's wrong with the engineering field is that most industries want an experienced engineer, which will backfire on the industry when every old engineer retires and only a handful can replace them because others didn't survive the initial hardship that those same companies created.
Aerospace is a part of mechanical engineering….
Hey I'm a software engineer, my major was applied mathematics. If you're an aspiring mech, don't panic. It's far from outdated. I might write the code to operate the machine you designed, but I don't ( and won't ) know CAD or physical systems like you do.
In addition, a lot of people in programming these days have unrelated education. One of the most thorough and quick programmers I work with has a master's in mechanical engineering. It's never too late to be a programmer... But I'll _never_ be a mechanical engineer.
Hey, I have completed learning C language? What should I do?
@@daveins1146 hey there! It depends on your interests, but very generally, once you know a language, you can start doing projects.
C is great for hardware stuff. If you're interested, you could try out some simple stuff with an Arduino. There are lots of beginner kits out there.
But of course, C is general purpose. Like math? Try project euler. Just want to have fun? Try making a text based game!
Most of all, the important part is that you don't stop programming. Just keep looking for things you enjoy, and keep having fun. If you're having fun, you'll do great.
You are life saver!!
I took admission in mech eng. And got panic due to sayings like it is outdated or it have less opportunities.
However jobs depends on country wise😙
@@kaushalsehgal2475 I think a hugely important bit is to try and get internships as much as possible during your schooling. The experience on your resume will put you ahead when you go looking for a job, and will also make your school experience easier.
@@SamVidovich What is the scenerio of jobs and salary of mech vs CSe in usa or in your country.
One day without mech engineers and the world would collapse
One day.... Hmmm... But today we mechanical engineers need jobs.
@@omprakashbaruah9425 He is talking about Skilled mech engineers.
I’m sure I could learn enough solid works to keep the world running for maybe a day longer, I’m no mechy tho
But one day without CS the whole world will go backward and end up in lost
@@anonymous-go3cd Exactly, you cant just rely on one specific job to keep the world running, its called division of labor.
Cs major is a joke learn on your own I have plenty of friends who made it successfully in the field without the degree
Cs major isn't a joke just people think it teaches you programing and get it to go into a programing job. But that's just stupidity on their end
@@just.someguy5145 💀a engineer can do that too
@@CircletolunA that's just wrong. Sure if they studied they could transition to being a computer scientist but engineering does not teach you about cs concepts
It’s not that MEs are outed, it’s just not clear to an undergrad student who hasn’t entered the work force how diverse the opportunities for MEs are
The shift to people studying computer science is reaching a point of it being severely overrated and saturated. Engineering builds rockets, skyscrapers, rail systems, 1km long bridges. You can make websites and applications... to be frank, they could all be deleted tomorrow and society would still be able to function again
Actually aerospace engineering is a specialized branch of mechanical engineering
Can confirm. Everyone I worked in aerospace were just mechanical engineers.
No. Not everything is online.. and when power lines get cut, bombed, or overloaded, shit don't work
Or another foreign hackers fuck up something mobile or electronic... shit is fucked or another apple crap updates takes internet off line
So we’re not going to talk about ‘the best songs are on tiktok’ please never change your major
he said "tiktok run the radio" which is facts. you can admit it, no one will judge
"Tiktok run the radio" doesn't mean Tiktok has the best songs, he means that most songs that goes trending in Tiktok gets played in the radio
he didnt say that you put words in his mouth
@@af2954 That does not mean that it has the best songs. Most of the songs that are popularized on tiktok are bad.
@@cxarhomell5867 dude. how do you just completely miss the point of my argument? you cannot possibly deny "tiktok run the radio" when top 10 songs of all platforms including the radio are songs popularized on tiktok. reminder to not put yourself on a pedestal because you think it's very special to not enjoy tiktok songs. out of curiosity: which songs popularized on tiktok this year (2022) would you categorize as bad?
As a mechanical engineer I would love to be able to see anything work without mechanical engineers, maybe I’m biased?!
You’re right lol. As an ME, I’d like to do mat’l science too. That seems very interesting
How where the college classes I really want to switch to mech but dont know how likely It is to get a job.
@@lilwalgreenscoldandflu6968 my advice to you would be to do what you enjoy. It may sound cliche but you will perform a lot better in education and work if you enjoy it!
@@benowen7757 I think he might've meant that it is not as valued (pay)
You sure you get paid enough for what you doing rn?
Every other mechanical engineer i know including me will certainly like to replace it with aerospace 😂
But why
Mr. MechE, word of advice, continue doing MechE and just take on coding. You do not need to change your major. I graduated MechE, work in aerospace (propulsion systems to be exact) and yes a lot of my daily work involves code, but you get nowhere without the “real engineering” knowledge. I have an upper hand over my CS coworkers who didn’t get engineering foundation, harder for them to learn than for me to learn to code up throttle mapping in C.
Hey man, I’m a current ME student planning to work in the aerospace industry as well. Did you have to take up a bachelor’s in aerospace after your ME degree or is it not worth it?
@@jamessolacito1611 it’s not worth taking up another bachelors in aerospace. Just focus on being outstanding in classes like Heat Transfer, Thermo II, Mechanics of Materials, etc. My area of focus is propulsions. But remember MechE classes are versatile they can be applied to practically any specialty in aerospace.
@@tigerrx7 Hey man I want to work in the aerospace field particularly on rockets, propulsions. Looking forward to work with fellow aero engineers in the future!
@@tigerrx7 hello! Would you recommend post grad in aerospace after bachelors in mechanical ?
You have the advantage that you have that sweet sweet domain knowledge
Mechanical Engineering is not outdated, but you are now in the era that everything is automated, so basic Computer science knowledge is super important for Mechanical engineering
Right
I learned all the controls engineering I needed to know after graduation and on the job. An engineering degree is just a learner's permit. You don't learn how to build things till you're in industry.
@@Tom-tk3du maybe it depends on where you live? I mean I live in Germany, companies still need a lot of mechanical engineering graduate to work in field of semiconductor or process techniques. And those don't grow from a tree (btw I am not Mechanical engineering major, I just by accident know a lot of mechanical engineers)
@@Giang_as_artist No doubt about it, manufacturing microchips requires precision machinery and heat transfer systems. The point I’m making is that a practicing engineers education is lifelong. The academic degree is an indication of aptitude, basic analytical methods, and one’s ability to self-study. But one is not yet ready to assume engineering responsibility for manufacturing high value capital equipment without a few years experience under one’s belt.

Pretty much all engineering majors are very useful and at the end of the day, I do think that doing what you prefer is going to get you the furthest.
With CS, I get it's a hot major and there are many jobs, but at the same time it sounds boring as fuck to me. I did instead chose electrical engineering because it is a good blend of math, physics and programming and I am really happy to have chosen it. I speak to some CS students from time to time and even if some courses and projects seem interesting, they do miss out on too many courses I do love such as physics classes and instead have more theoretical CS courses that seem a whole lot less interesting from my point of view.
Yup, I’m a senior CS major and I basically fucking hate it at this point lmao
it's not about if the course is fun or boring, it's about the work itself being fulfilling or not
I am a web dev and I could not asked for a better career path. It is boring when you suck, but once you get good it's just soon interesting cause you can actually produce something super cool in short period of time. For example, I made a basic ASCII filter in Python in a day, I also made a chess bot using alpha beta pruning algorithm. I did some 3D web pages with physics in it. There so many cool things you can do. And there are so many interesting fields. You can be a Data analyst a web dev, a game dev, an AI engineering, you can do BI, be a cloud architect, database architect, etc. You always learn, always have projects. Bte there are a lot of physics involve in some field of CS, like game dev or simulations for example.
@@philippebaillargeon5204 yeah I have a lot of respect for anyone in game development, having to be very knowledgeable in physics and proficient in CS. Kinda really cool that so much of our progress in humanity gets put into those programs just for simple pleasure.
That being said, all of those industries sound yucky to me, glad to be an ME in the making, glad you enjoy your field 😁
Yeah when all options are logistically practical, preference is what truly matters.
ofc some very remarkable folk come out of pursuing what is extremely logistically impractical.
It’s not outdated but it’s mature enough. But for CS, it’s still evolving but this will be mature enough in 20 to 30 years I guess.
The most demanding is know a specific engineering subject plus coding
"Mechanical engineering is outdated" he must only read books, didn't work in the field
That first guy really sounded like an engineer even. And mechanical engineers will always be nessasary because every machine has moving parts and mechanisms.
The industry is mostly stagnant besides of very few fields like renewable and robotic. But with recent boost of military comples this is gonna change.
Till today only few have understood what Engineering really is..
are you the inventor of "Engineering" or what?
@@lonasontsele8674 you need not to be an inventor of engineering to understand it, just because you understand a concept clearly doesn't mean you invented it, please understand what i am saying.

@@mcds6307 I would like to work on developing graphics cards for Nvidia, would you say that requires EE, CE or CS?
@@McFlashh Depending on what part of the cards you want to work on, a different major is more fitting. If you want to design the physical circuit, EE is what you want, but CE will definitely cover that too, if you want to develop the digital logic circuits on the cards, CE is more fitting, but both EE and CS will also work. If you want to develop the embedded firmware on the cards, CE or CS is better, but EE is good too.

Mechanical and Electric engineering are the universal engineering degrees. You don’t need an Aerospace engineering degree to become an aerospace engineer, as I was able to become one as a Mech.
In reality all the other physics based engineering are just a more concentrated version of mechanical engineering. Working on planes? That’s just mechanical engineering with emphasis on high dynamic loads and fluid dynamics.
How about nuclear engineering? It just mechanical with emphasis on thermodynamics/heat-transfer and material science. This one is from my experience with the NRC.
I think mechanical and electrical engineering will go more hand in hand in future, so mechatronics
I guess it's all about money now, most of forks are earning good as Software enginner
I think the mechanical guy didn't give full picture. I think what he meant was there are more software engineer and programming related jobs than mechanical jobs. Also, the pay is generally higher for software engineer because of increasing demand. I have seen people studying mechanical then shifting to computer science or IT related job.
Mechanical just has less openings due to the nature of almost everything we need already exists and the body of knowledge in engineering is not going to increase as much of the openings available for engineering too, they demand experience already which is oof for graduates
If anything, computers alone will have to be part of every engineering curriculum because every algorithms and software was designed by computer science

To make the wafers require machines that move as well as testing them and these machines are VERY expensive and sensitive so mechanical engineers are always finding ways to make them more efficient, vibrate less, run faster, etc. Another way to see this is EVs! They are electrical cars but still have mechanical parts to make the car move which be the role of a mechanical engineer to get it to work.
I was a CS major but I switched to Mechanical Engineering and I'm telling you there's no way in hell that either will be outdated any time soon

Mechanical will always be relevant, and needed. In fact, I'm a former CS major (from years ago; I haven't kept myself current because I've been working in the environmental sector for decades now) who is now studying mechanical because knowing how to build things that won't fall down is pretty critical.

Mechanical engineering is engineering with programming (every stem subject and more has programming nowadays) whereas computer science is just a lot programming and a bit of how computers work
The mariner space shuttle failed at launch because of a spacecraft because of an oversight in the computer systems’ code. Nobody was hurt but millions of dollars were lost. The challenger disaster of 1986 occurred due to catastrophic mechanical failure of the shuttle after takeoff. The entire crew perished costing several lives and even more money was lost in addition. And this happened two decades after the anticipated unmanned mission. There is absolutely nothing irrelevant, obsolete or outdated about mechanical engineering.
I feel Mechanical engineering is gonna boom again, because we're heading towards times where coding is at risk of being automated by AI and somebody gotta make/engineer the robots and stuff
Mechanical engineering is not outdated. The reason is people are running behind the scope not behind the passion.
If I could go back I would study physics, because you can do most engineering jobs with physics, and you can do some jobs that you can't do with any engineering degree. It's a similar thing with mathematics and chemistry.
I love Mechanical engineering, it's so much fun learning about stuff which you can feel and touch, but yeah C.S pays significantly more
Yeah, mechanical engineering is outdated because everything is online now. That's why when a new building goes up, they just use "computer science" rather than designing HVAC and plumbing systems for it. And people are "just learning to code" for transportation rather than using vehicles.
"slightly outdated"
I can't wait to use my online car to get to the beach...
I'm an EE student and I will definitley say that MechEng is the most fundamental, because it deals in physical reality.
Welcome to the metaverse kid.
You cannot make a physical machine, a chair, a table, an instrument, or even the phone, with code 😂
CS is like n innovation in engineering, if there's no mechanical and civil engineering in thr olden days there won't be computers today. No hate to CS, but CS is an innovation and it is like a child of mechanical engineering.
You cannot innovate something without a need, innovation comes if there is need.
Those machines are automated by CS, without CS the jobs of engineers will be very difficult. They’d have no CAD software and manufacturing machines.
@@McFlashh Hey mate, don't you know the meaning of innovation??? tell me buddy. Of course CS made the works easy but it is the child of mechanical engineering. Because it is after the mechanical engineering and it is also the innovative part of the engineering. We have to respect the old engineering branches too, what about mechanical engineers during 17 - 18 centuries?? they all worked without computers. No manufacturing machines you mean CNC machines?/ don't you know there are traditional mechanical machines??
Saying ME is outdated is like saying Civil Engineering is outdated.
College is slightly outdated. Better to get earn money in trades during high school then chatGPT your way up the ladder.
First guy should be playing Forza Horizon to get home 😂 That dude fogot about cars 😅
the guy who said mechanical eng is outdated? bro traditional engineering never changes? with that logic, everything is outdated so he shouldnt study anything lol. lets be real, the only reason hes switching to computer is because mechanical eng is too hard for him with all the engineering maths lol. no shame in saying that
Young man, if you’re reading these comments - for the love of all things good - don’t drop your mech degree for computer science.
Engineers are patently useful, coders are not.
How coders are not? You know that we make engineer and medicine more easier right? And mechines too
@@clomixgaming8748 Yeah but you get treated like sh*t in any IT job.
@@clomixgaming8748 what in the mcdonalds are u talking about? Without mechanical engg u coders will not exist
@@clomixgaming8748 every kid knows how to code nowadays
@@clomixgaming8748 and you don't have the balls to stand for yourself and be treated like human at your own workplace
Lol mechanical engineering outdated, computers are built by mechanical engineering.
Am happy that the first guy didn't take aerospace.
lol cs is probably the worst degree to have lmfao, job market is horrible
I'm an Electrical Engineer major, and it does at times feel like the focus is more towards Computer Engineering majors (CE was born out of EE after all).
Bro’s tripping, I have no regrets doing mechanical engineering
Tony stark laughing from heaven
Mechanical Engineering outdated? What a load of nonsense.
I think his point is that the machining at the most technical levels is now done almost exclusively with cad machines, and the design work is done with cad software, there's a lot of innovation rn in using machine learning to enhance cad software for cad machines. soo yeah, classical mechanical engineering is sort of in the process of being phased out by compsci.
Mechanical engineering is outdated
Bro's gonna make a car from codes
Physics is outdated. You can program gravity on a computer
Kid doing mechanical engineering but has no idea what it actually is😂
Guess you can just program yourself a Tesla if you think mechanical engineering is boomer age engineering.
Dude you can literally learn everything from CS online for free...
Looks like UCF campus. My alumni
Thought the same thing
it is UCF lol
But not a single electrical component a mechanical engineer can make without the complete assistance of electrical and electronics engineers
Chemical Engineer up here... 😊
Dude doesn’t do his own research, as an ME myself, I can tell you ME will never be outdated, but your uni’s syllabus can be lol, do your research folks. Unless you’re in India…. If you’re in India leave but eventually comeback to start your own practice, thats the way to solve the unemployment problem there.
Everything that man uses is product of mechanical engineering...how narrow minded should man be to say such a dumb thing?
Mechanical engineering is far from being obsolete
