A day in the life of a BCIT Electrical Engineering student

[@derfdswed]

I graduated from BCIT in 2001 with Diploma in Automation and Instrumentation Technology. I switched careers and work in Finance now and its interesting to see BCIT program hasn't changed that much except now you can complete the degree full time at BCIT. Before that wasn't an option. BCIT was about four times harder than getting my Bachelor of Commerce. The pressure and workload is continuous. But when you graduate you will be prepared to work. It's worth it.

[@petarkos5583]

was it hard to find work with an automation diploma?

[@itsjungus]

Is it hard to get job after graduating Diploma in Automation and Instrumentation??

[@derfdswed]

@@itsjungus I finished it in 2001 so info is really outdated but BCIT has a good reputation and I got a job right after graduating in the USA at General Electric Power Systems. If you are willing to move around where the jobs take you and finish the Bachelor degree or the Red Seal ticket then you'll always be in demand

[@yanesfamily1363]

Good luck on your test and thank you for sharing a day of your life as an electrical engineer student! This was a great example for our career week!- Thank you from the Pre- K students.

[@derfdswed]

I had a job before graduation. There are always more jobs in this field than people trained in it and if you are willing to move outside the Lower Mainland you will find opportunities.

[@JakeVoorhees]

yeah most people fall in love with the Vancouver area. I lived there for 4 years :) What kind of engineer are you?

[@1pspgofan]

I'm a ChemEng student and about to graduate. One college requirement is; me having to take fundamentals to electronics, and I have never hated a course so much in my life. Props to you lot for actually majoring in this

[@dtraindaimyo3377]

On the contrary I'm in Electrical Eng and I'm getting forced to take Engineering Chemistry, I have never hated a course so much in my life. Props to you a lot for actually majoring in that.

[@zezo27omar]

Hello! thanks for sharing this with us! 😀 And I wanna ask u about BCIT in general, I'm studying at BCIT ISEP downtown and I always wonder do ISEP students struggle after they start their follow up program at BCIT burnaby? Like in communicating and participating in class. I asked you this question because you may have had a previous ISEP student classmate 😅. Btw my follow up program is Electrical engineering too 😀✌🏻️

[@beav.5068]

Hello! The ISEP students that I know from previous terms are super hard-working and ask a lot of good questions in class. The instructors are generally pretty good with sticking around for questions after class and in office hours. It always helps to get into study groups, which the instructors really push for from the very beginning. Good luck in your studies and I hope to see you around on campus! :)

[@JakeVoorhees]

what are you guys up to this fall in your engineering journey? cheers!

[@ernest747]

I feel you sista, I feel you.

[@JakeVoorhees]

yupp, are you an engineering student?

[@ernest747]

im doing electrical engineering, that is, have no idea what im doing >.

[@JakeVoorhees]

Nice nice, EE has a strong future for sure. Great choice. I'm an engineering student mentor and have lots of EEs in the community. Let me know what else you're trying to figure out and I can make a video about that or get you in my 1% Engineer FB group!

[@joseeduardourreacabus8346]

I will like to get a place i this university, I will take extra class by improve my english too.

Jose E Urrea C hola buenas noches. te quiero preguntar si en la escuela BCIT hay personas que hablen español ya que mi ingles es muy basico. el asunto es que yo quiero emigrar a canada y quiero saber si por medio del estudio pudiera irme. soy electricista pero se que tengo que estudiar en canada para poder trabajar la electricidad. tu me podrias dar algún consejo para irme a canada?

[@JakeVoorhees]

Jose are you striving for engineering? what kind?

[@ramandang3685]

I am also engineering student and a like your video ,plz do more videos

[@nitishmokashi-ibm9602]

How are placements for general insurance and risk management at BCIT . please suggest if there are any better universities or colleges for this course .

[@JakeVoorhees]

check out SFU and UBC as well!

[@haneenbme7678]

cct analysis 💔 it's too important for most engineering coz electronic and signals depending on it .actually I found cct is most difficult one ,in my school we have also cct II but it's easy more than cctI good luck and depending on my experience you should understand it well ✌

[@JakeVoorhees]

yeah great point. what are you up to in your engineering career today?

I see Brenda Fine there! She is awesome!

haha are you an engineer too?

[@jacksun9882]

Brenda is the best

[@bh4vdeepsingh]

Can somebody tell me that how many days in a week does the first year electrical eng. student have classes???

[@AI_HQ]

Canadian instructors never teach on Saturdays and Sundays if you are a full-time time student.

[@yehu41]

@3:33 I love that text, I'm never paying for a physical copy though! Gl with controls, and energy etc!

lol why you Engineering students act like you guys doing so much big thing.. huh? Do you even know the student life of Medicine (MBBS) and Accountancy (ACCA)? In front of these engineering is nothing..

[@andreas3850]

@@nycto16 Accounting ? Stfu .

[@nycto16]

@@andreas3850 yes Accounting.. I'm not talking about bachelors im talking about CPA, ACCA, CA... engineering is nothing infront of these qualifications. Plus Bachelors in Accounting is not that easy to do, mostly Accounting majors willing to do professional qualifications (CPA/ACCA) after their degree.. engineering is like a kid's major infront of medicine or accountancy even law school is so hard.

[@andreas3850]

@@nycto16 Sure buddy Keep dreaming,i bet you haven't even taken an engineering course. Accounting harder than engineering haha

[@nycto16]
