AThe different engineering disciplines are different beasts. Many of the mathematical skills will be the same (calculus differentiation and integration, sometimes partial differential equations), but the laws and concepts to understand will be very different.Civil engineering deals with static (not moving) physics and strengths of materials, as well as large water systems and geological things. Beginning pay is around $40,000/yr, and there's not a particularly high demand for them. In my intro engineering class, about 60% of the students were majoring in civil engineering.Mechanical engineering deals more with dynamic physics (things that move) as well as a lot of fluid dynamics (pumps, valves and pressure, and hydraulics) and thermodynamics. There's also a little bit of programming involved, such as configuring electronic controls. Base pay is around $40,000 per year, and about 35% of the students in my intro class were majoring in mechanical engineering.Electrical engineering deals (obviously) with electricity. There are generally two aspects of it. There is the higher voltage aspect, such as power systems, and there is the lower voltage aspect, such as electronics and wireless communications. Electrodynamics and electrostatics can get very difficult - calculating electric fields becomes especially difficult when dealing with anything that has corners, because you have to use integration and partial integration to do it. There is also a lot of programming involved in both aspects. Pay generally starts at around $50,000 per year, but it's hard NOT to find a job - people will come to you. This is what I'm majoring in - specifically, electronics and signal processing.Computer engineering is much like electrical engineering, only much more focused on computer systems than any other electrical systems. They have to understand computer architecture, and they deal with how to physically create memory and how to store and access it, as well as know how to tell a machine how to do something. They have to know how to build hardware to handle different things. There is tons of programming involved, as well as very interesting problem-solving techniques using algorithms. Base pay is about $50,000 per year, and people will come to you.Chemical engineering is very difficult stuff, but also very rewarding as well. The guys who figure out how to make stuff go boom? Chemical engineers. The guys who figured out how to make your scratch-resistant glasses, shatterproof bottles, and your oh-so-soft memory foam mattress? Also chemical engineers. A lot of them work for oil companies (because that falls under organic chemistry), but they are needed for a lot of things. The hard part? Chemistry is a difficult concept for most people to grasp anyway, but add that to a whole bunch of psycho partial differential equations, and that's your job. There is a huge demand for them, and the starting pay is over $60,000.There are other engineering fields out there, but generally they would fall under either degrees in physics, chemistry, or computer science. Some examples would be acoustic engineering, metallurgical engineering, software engineering, and biomedical engineering.

AWhich one do you think you'll like more? As cliche as it might sound, the one that you'll like more will be the easier one. I've looked at some of the work that Chem E's do and it really did not look appealing to me. I'm only a freshman right now but I'm handling the EECS material well so far though I probably won't be able to say the same for chemistry if I were Chem E.On another note, I had the same question when applying to Berkeley but eventually decided on EECS even though I thought I would be ok with Chem E. If your gpa is pretty high (4.3+ weighted or so) and SAT scores are pretty high (2200+ SAT or ACT equivalent), then you'll probably get into EECS, provided that you write a good essay. At that point, it doesn't matter which major you'll apply for, as you'll have a decent shot at any of the colleges in Berkeley. If you do get into EECS and find that you don't like it, you can switch out of the College of Engineering into the College of Chemistry. However, I know that switching INTO the College of Engineering is quite a challenge. Just throwing another piece of information out there.

AI posted the url below for the Biomedical Engineering Society that may provide better answers to your questions (including how to pick a school).Answering your question is a bit difficult. If your intent is to become a primary care physician then a biomedical engineering background is not going to be any better of an asset than a music major. But if your intent is to become a physician engaged in biomedical engineering research, then certainly, any undergrad coursework would be perceived in a favorable manner.Most med schools are advising students to only take the prereq science courses and to fill out their degree requirements in other, non-science, programs. Of course, the exception to that is if you plan on going into research. Then, med schools do expect you to be somewhat of a nerd (said affectionately). But if you want to treat patients, then they want you to be "normal".It all comes down to whether you want to know how to repair the equipment or to know how to use and interpret the equipment's results.

AThere are actually some advantages to a "foreign" MBA.Depending on nation, you may have the advantage of multi-language fluency.You would be a prime candidate for international management.You would add a level of diversity for some firms.Hope this helps!

Ai think you could, not sure you did learn it and like have some experience but not fully done.but yea its useful for minor engineering unless you can take the math down like calculus and thingsI know for fact though that you can get a job in that, not so sure how a minor works but i do know that you can get a job with a minor like someone who has a major in music but has a minor in like piano tuning

AThe relationship between Engineering and Engineering Technology are similar to Lawyers and Paralegals, Doctors and Nurses, Pharmacists and Pharmacy Techs. Basically an engineering technologist assist the engineer or does simpler or more hands on tasks. The programs are NOT compatible ET degrees do not require hardly any advanced math or upper level engineering classes. So if you start in ET you would almost have to start over once you transfer to the university if you wanted to be an engineer. When it comes to Engineering and Engineering Tech degrees some schools will lie or mislead you, particularly schools that only offer ET degrees. They will try and tell you that they are equivalent but they are not. You should go to ABET.org to find a real engineering school that will get you a real engineering degree.

ACurrently I am majoring in Civil Engineering at Penn State, but Im not saying that CE has the most potential to improve the environment. As a CE, you would design and create buildings, roadways, sewage systems and these can easily improve environment as long as they are created greenly. But in my opinion I think any engineering aspect that works with the creation of energy has the most potential to improve the environment. Right now, most of our energy is produced in a nuclear power plant, which is not very efficient and clean. Creates acid rain, destroys the ozone layer, and pollutes the air. Yet, there are ways to make nuclear energy more efficient and clean for the environment. Also our country needs to gravitate towards new sources of energy and engineering can create and improve these energy sources. Some other sources of energy could be hydropower, wind power, solar power, and there are ways to create energy from the force of the ocean waves. Any sort of engineering can better the environment, but a engineering aspect associated with energy can be the most beneficial to human kind and the environment.
