  • Is electrical engineering a good major? Is electrical engineering a good career? You might wonder and ask yourself: is electrical engineering right for me? Or worse, you could ask: is electrical engineering dead? And I am here to assure you that NO its NOT.
    Electrical engineering jobs are insanely in demand. There are many electrical engineering jobs which are a good signal if you are considering an electrical engineering career. Electrical engineering is worth it and an electrical engineer career is probably one of the best things you can invest in.

    A little note on the computer engineering history part; while mechanical computers and vacuum tubes preceded transistors, computers as we know them today did not really take off (and would have never taken off) without the invention and utilization of transistors. I will likely make some technical content about EE/CE/CS sometime soon.

    I’ve always thought that EE was inseparable from software and modern life in general but I really like the way you put it because software literally can’t exist without the hardware that backs it up. Maybe in one or two decades from now we’ll have mainstream wearable tech and a functioning meta verse (fingers crossed of course 😅) and when that time comes the demand for EE will surely skyrocket 🚀

    ee is active because electricity is a funtamental for our society (ee are needed for the maintenance and building of infrastuctures). but it is prosperus (mostly electronic eng)because it is currently being used by computer science. consider this : who made a more significant contribution ?Shakespeare or the guy who created the ink and paper with witch shak wrote ? Each one is good in his field. could the craftman write some some poems or plays in paper ? sure and probably did write something, but he didnt write romeo an juliet. could shak make some ink ? probably if he was in a craftmans lab . but he couldnt probably make the top quality ready for sale stuff.

    Unfortunately at the moment, most companies are starving out the talent pool of hardware designers because they refuse to pay them like they do software engineers. So most people choose comp sci or even switch from hardware to software in their career. But the chickens are coming home to roost. They have to start paying for the talent to encourage more people to choose the hardware career path. Shit or get off the pot as they say.

    Do I have realistic chances to success getting the bachelor in electrical engineering, even though I was pretty bad at mathematics in my school? I'm from Germany, so I did Oberstufe, similar to High school. The thing is I never tried to learn mathematics cuz it was pretty boring for me. I'm interested in Electrical Engineering, but would you suggest doing it, if I'm not even interested in doing math? Hope for a positive answer.

    • @alithedazzling

      There's a high chance you were taught math in a boring way -- if you like the electrical engineering concepts, do not let the math discourage you. Most EE jobs don't require much math anyway so it could be just a bullet you have to bite for few classes

      @alithedazzling  Год назад +4

      @@Nachbardesvertrauens well, math is more used to describe electrical behavior, however you can understand electrical phenomena without math really. For example you can think about how an electric charge sits in space, and creates an electric field around it. That's something you can visualize without math, but the math will then help you calculate how strong that field is and how much force it will have upon other charges for example.
      When you graduate and get a job usually the computer software does most of the math, you just have to be a good problem solver and know how to think about problems

    I’ve read way too often that EE grads switch over to software roles simply because that’s where the demand is. I feel maybe this may coming from a doctoral perspective of opportunities rather than a terminal BS perspective.
    If it’s the case that there aren’t enough hardware jobs for all EE’s (the pay really says it all, they’re not hurting for people), why not just redirect your studies to develop better software?

    • @alithedazzling
      @alithedazzling  Год назад +6

      I really don't think there's a shortage of EE jobs. You can go type "electrical engineering" on indeed and you'll see a ton. Or you can go to most technology companies websites and look at their openings and there is always some sort of hardware role.
      Do the software jobs pay more on average? That's likely; and if your goal is to make more money then that's okay, but I believe that if you do something strictly for the money and you have no interest in it you'll spend a big chunk of your life feeling empty.
