Engineering peeps please help

[rayban]

Trying to cross over to engineering field line now. Was in IT line all the while. Get MBA to do managerial role after having years of tech experience?

i see getting proj mgmt master more useful....but thats just me. i cud be wrg.

 

[rayban]

Oh well finish my degree than say ba.... Lol 3 years to go...... Will mech be a better choice?

so bro lets say last time i take electrical but if i cross over to mechanical..

will it be restart all over again and what i have learnt from poly is just so minimal that really doesnt matter even if i cross over to mechanical?

bro hearsay ST alot of political and paywise not that good wor for technician...

st is a good place to learn n pew lang.

study mechanical or electrical its the same i feel. just that maths calculation might be a little different.

but for mechanical if u ended up in manufactering sector as ur job, good to hv a back up plan.

ADD: if u hv alot of difficulty seeing things in 3 D view, then mech may not be suitable. i realise some ppl cannot be train at all in 3D imagination.

but for mech is more on autocad type of stuff?

while for electrical more on calculating maths stuff?

 

[seianko]

just different type of maths.

electrical also hv a lot of cadding but different focus of cadding.

mech usually need 3D. electtical more towards cable tray/bus duct design which is considered as specialisation in electrical terms.

I think u should go study mechanical cos mechanical covers a lot of things and the job offer outside now is pretty good. For Electrical, more of a standard switchboard, transformer, generator sizing, load analysis, cable and cable tray sizing. Etc. Anw it depends where's your interest. Mechanical can see your actual product wors but electrical can only see electrical which is not visible to human eyes except sparks.
I wanted to study part time degree but decided to drop out of NTU PT due to long studying years, 5 yrs. Was thinking of UNISIM but it doesn't offer electrical engineering

So I'm stuck at where I'm now. Still wondering if i should go for degree or not. Anw thinking of having a career change after 1 year at L.T.a, tired of the work and environment despite good pay.

5 years PT is a lot better than during my time it was 7-8 years PT

yesh thats pwetty much abt electrical
