The Traps All Engineering Students Fall Into

[@madlad1.]

I went from a 5% to nearly 20% call back ratio using his project portfolio idea and template, mechanical engineer graduating 25’ (originally 24’) so closer to a junior regarding technical skills.

[@rcdsk8786]

I’m so mad I didn’t watch these types of videos as a freshman but as a senior/junior. This is literally most solid advise you can get in 10 min.

[@TamerShaheen]

Appreciate it :)

Thanks for the video. First-year Aerospace Engineering. Definitely using your tips, especially the portfolio one

[@TamerShaheen]

Happy to hear that :)

[@claymilne6171]

What you were saying about expanding your box is hilarious cause that’s exactly why I’m watching your videos before I start my first semester this spring.

[@Makersdepartment]

Well said Tamer. A lot of students also forget about taking advantage of their studying institution to work on personal interests.. Instead they end up working on problems/subjects that are selected randomly and without a good criteria. A good home work when doing student projects is thinking of what could actually be beneficial on a personal level so that on the long run you still enjoy what you do while studying a degree.

[@TheyCalledMeT]

computer engineering grad here. our primary problem was .. we hat 3 semesters which where so packed with stuff to learn .. we where busy 50-60h a week next to all the in place courses/lectures. which resulted in spreading it or sacrificing all free time for about one and a half years .. in other words .. i added a 9th to the 8 seemesters to get the diploma. (back then in 2008 where diplomas still where a thing)

[@ARJUNDAS-tc3sz]

this video is helpful for those in their early years of engineering.

[@ReighKnight]

This is a really really good video. Thanks man

[@JV3Player]

One of the common challenges in engineering is taking those dedicated engineering classes and lacking a few mathematical tools/skills, it's always important to continue learning and practicing math, even if you completed all the math required. Besides, sometimes it's fun to jump into theoretical/pure mathematics, or learn, practice and review applied mathematics.

[@sirjanuppal6267]

Hi I’m planning on doing mechanical engineering in college, but I was wondering if you think it’ll be beneficial to do a double degree like engineering and business together? Also can mechanical engineers get jobs in specific fields like aerospace or the environment? Thank you so much for creating this great channel, it’s helped me a lot :)

[@IsaacBuzby]

Hi current mech e major, it would be super helpful, lots of companies would appreciate the business aspect of engineering. Lots of skills like communication, project management and others. You can get specific jobs from that degree as it’s very versatile!

[@TamerShaheen]

You can do a double degree if that’s something u want, but it can be hectic to handle that course load. I don’t see much of a benefit in it since no job requires both as they only require either an engineering degree or a business degree. So it might be better to pick one and focus on it. In addition, if u pursue engineering, u can pursue an MBA after to have some business background. And yes, mechanical engineers can get jobs in specific fields like aerospace and environmental.

[@dasvidanya2694]

That boxing yourself tip really is true. Recently I was taken on a trip external from my college (this is in the UK so America’s high school) to visit Oxford University. Once I was there and started speaking to people who were going to apply or who were already students, it made me feel a lot more confident and as though “hey, these people have a lot in common with me, I can probably do that too”. Basically, surround yourself with the type of people you want to become. If you’re smart, don’t sit with a group of idiots, sit with the even smarter people so that you’re the idiot, that’s the only way to improve efficiently, at least in my experience.
