What can I do with a bachelors degree in engineering management?

Which Discipline of Engineering Should I go After? (Bachelors Degree)?

  • I'm a college student interested in getting a bachelors in engineering but can't seem to narrow it down between these 3 disciplines: Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering 1) Which discipline involves more math? 2) Which discipline invovles more physics? 3) Which discipline invovles sitting in a cubicle all day? 4) Which discipline is more marketable/increasing/stable?

  • Answer:

    Interesting thought!! Well, all these 3 engineering fields are very popular. I would say all three fields apply to question 1, 2, and 4. But I agree with the first answer as well. None of these engineering field all sit all day.

I am an electrical engineer and I find it quite rewarding. All involve equal math, physics, etc. Civil Eng. will get you "outside" more. You can be a building, road, mall, bridge, dam, stadium designer! You can visit the job sights. I think the most exciting field in the future would be MATERIALS Science/Engineering ---> An offshoot of Mechanical engineering. Concepts in Electrical Engineering are diverse...but pretty much established. Any ground breaking technologies in Electrical or Civil Engineering today...and in the future .... will depend on breakthroughs in MATERIALS SCIENCE!. Just think...you could be the one working on new materials that are stronger, more flexible, lighter, carry more charge, etc. As these new materials get developed....then they would be applied to break throughs in the other disciplines! Good luck!

answer ; 1) electrical. 2)mechanical 3)electrical 4) civil you may study hard in your present corse so that you can get admission to engg. If you are not so good at studies, then try for diploma in engg.

A better approach would be to ask yourself what you want to be doing with your LIFE in 10 years. Then work toward THAT. Engineering can be fun and exciting, or deadly boring. You have to choose what fits your own personality and ambitions. NEVER choose a career based on marketability/ stability/ money. Markets change, there's no such thing as stability, and money comes when you love your work.

http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos027.htm#earnings Civil is the lowest paid. So I would suggest not going into Civil unless you absolutely want to. 1) Electrical 2) Mechanical 3) All of them in the first few years but after that you get to head up project teams and meet with clients and subcontractors, etc. 4) See my first set of comments and the web link. They are all stable and marketable but pay differences are great between Civil Engineers and other types of engineers.
