TWO VIDEOS THIS WEEK??? My oh my what a blessing this is!

Trying to keep it going!

[@marim5033]

I love mat’s tip on the communication skills! Lots of people have the technical skill without the people skills but it’s so important!

[@KienenKoga]

Agreed!

[@daniolumuyiwa]

So Apt!!! What he said about Statics and Dynamics. I didn't take them seriously because they seemed so abstract, regretted it later on.

[@012coyang]

PART 1!!!!!! How many parts do we get the pleasure of watching?? You guys should make this a series!

[@KienenKoga]

Maybe 9?

Facts on paying more in construction 😂😂 in college I interned for a major GC on the mainland after interning for a civil engineering design firm the year prior, aside from the pay I loved how dynamic the day to day was. It took me a few years working to switch to the government side (surprisingly to pay much better than what I was making on the construction side minus sacrificing work life balance lol). The burnout in construction was real, the mobility requirements were challenging but the growth, travel opportunities, and experiences I had were invaluable. I worked mega projects and smaller projects, I loved the smaller projects cause I got to touch a variety of scopes and positions unlike the mega projects where like Kienen said you tend to get pigeonholed in one scope path (usually superintendent vs “engineer”) . Even though I’m no longer directly in the construction engineering side, I still always advocate younger engineers to give it a chance because I was even surprised that I would’ve liked the work or stayed as long as I did. It also has given me an edge now on the government side cluing in my peers on how to most effectively work with contractors. Great content as always Kienen !

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! Well said 🤙

[@gregyjoebatin2558]

Waiting for this type of content Kienen. Currently a construction engineering student major! ♥️

[@KienenKoga]

Nice!

[@bellaortiz4047]

Could you make a video talking about internships? Like when to start looking, what knowledge you should have, and the different types possibly? That would be super helpful! And thanks for coming back!!

[@KienenKoga]

I'll keep it in mind! Thanks Bella!

nice one. thank you so much kienen love from philippines

Appreciate it! 🤙

I’m a geotechnical engineer but I’m about to change my mind because of you two haha I love your channel!!☺️ …Specially ‘cause I can’t find channels for geotechnical engineers as good as yours 🥺 Keep it up!!!! You guys are amazing and inspiring!!!👏👏

[@KienenKoga]

hahaha thanks so much!

[@cristianangelico3992]

As someone considering engineering and having to do all the maths/physics pre-requisites - I liked Mat's point about them only being tools and I am hoping it becomes more practical as the degree progresses. Thank you

[@KienenKoga]

Agreed!

thanks Stephanie!

Huge fan of your videos Kienen, I’ve learned a lot from watching your vids. I was hoping you had online courses or do individual sessions with people, I would love to have a chat and ask you some questions

[@KienenKoga]

Maybe one day!

[@joeltyler7376]

Hey Kienen, so glad you’re back! I have a question that might be a first for you. 😅 Might sound kind of dumb. 😅 So I’m a high school senior aspiring to be a structural engineer and I know that they have to take the FE and PE and even in some states the SE. A lot of tests. 😅 But I was wondering if say a structural engineer who wanted to understand more of the building process should study and take the PE exam for construction. I remember in one of Mats videos how when structural engineers study and take the PE/SE exam for structures it helps to fill in any technical knowledge and I thought maybe the construction exam could do the same for someone whose in the design side of things. BTW: I’m also a carpenter. 😅 So I have a basic knowledge for how things are built. BASIC. 😅😅😅 Thx.

thanks for commenting again Joel!

Thx for this collaboration , could you make a video about some students who finds difficult in college but still love construction, in other words comparisons between college and real life , thank you so much ☺️

Ill keep it in mind!
