    I did 3 year Electronics. This was nearly 50 years ago. Looking back and what my various jobs demanded I regret not learning enough depth and making it stick. Everything I was taught during the 3 years I realised later had value and if I had applied myself more I would achieved more. This brought back hard memories of many of the areas you covered

People without internships are in sticky situations. If I went back to uni I think I would have switched my degree to the computer engineering stream on the same course but they are very similar.

    I also just finished my EEE degree from Coventry University. After seeing my friends doing mechanical or civil engineering, I must say EEE absolutely rocks. You get your electrical stuff but also a little bit from other engineering fields and programming. I also had pretty much the same modules however my last year was more power heavy, so stuff like power distribution and generation and what not. However, my project was predictive maintenance using machine learning which i know is opposite of power stuff i took 😂. PS. I absolutely hated electrical science B and the whole electromagnetism aspect.

    like others have said, congrats on graduating and super interesting video regarding course topics (US EE senior). You seem super tailored to/interested in embedded systems and programming; is that what you hope to do for a career? I personally find no interest in coding or programming, and have only learned the minimal amount asked of me as I focused on power systems. But your video made me wonder if maybe the US could benefit from integrating more of those projects which implement software as well. From what I remember, only one introduction course was required for me and anything beyond that was up to students to learn on their own

    • @aleksgornik
      @aleksgornik 27 днів тому

      Yes I definitely went the embedded systems and programming route in my final year. Matter of fact I just signed a job contract and will be working as an embedded sw engineer soon. About US universites, I really like the diversity and choise you have in your curriculums. I was only able to pick a few modules in my final year. I feel like if I did EEE in the US I would love to take courses in biology, physics, philosophy and econ just be more well rounded. I think if you want to learn how to code you can just with youtube but topics like systems biology and quantum physics are more suited for university. The worst thing you can do is force a bunch of people to code when they hate it and thats kind of what happened at my university. So in conclusion - US and UK unis have their own pros and cons.

  • @gameking2447
    @gameking2447 27 днів тому

    I'm from India, and top private institutions charge around ₹30 lakhs (~£27,930) for a CS degree, while EEE degrees are cheaper at ₹10-15 lakhs. This refers to the top 5-10 institutions only. By our standards, you're about ₹62 lakhs in debt. In India, when a middle-class person retires from a government job, they typically get around ₹50-60 lakhs. And you, my friend, just stole it virtually or hypothetically, even after your ancestors stole $40 trillion physically by stabbing us in the back.

      Well. Unfortunately what i have seen on the video. In my opinion absolutely not. Here is why: using only Matlab to solve the mathematical equanations doesn't make you and engineer. Basically first need learn those laplace,fourier, closed loop transfer function,stability criteria calculation on the paper. Then using Matlab to verify your calculation. On the state space section the hardest part is completely missing. The given electrical or mechanical system equanations and how they done the state space variable according of that. Basically all the important parts are missing.

    One of the biggest misconceptions is if you can code, you are a software engineer. The vin diagram is: all software engineers are coders, not all coders are software engineers. Just about anyone can hack their way through some code to get an end result. However, the ability to plan, derive, analyze, implement, test, verify, validate, deploy and support while maintaining adherence to a variety of standards matrixed to a development process for the various life cycles of a project is something only a software engineer can do. Coders simply don't have the skillset.

    I had this tought decision and I picked EE. The fact that EE deals in digital design with literally transistors(Logical gates) can set up a deep knowledge of low level programming which can be used as ladder to high level programming languages. Also it provides knowledge in more core electronics disciplines. From another point of view, EE classes cointain more math than CS/SWE degree. Thats why I think can be a great set up for mastern in artifical intelligence, why also mastering embedded systems and electronics. I just see EE as great starting point to many tech EE-ECE-CS-SWE jobs. Knowing how to programm just alone is going to be replaced by AI, since it doesnt require that much logical analysis if you really just need to code something (design architecture of web app is different). Personally, If I had a software company and the 2 candidates would be equally good but one with EE degree and second with CS. I would probably go for EE candidate. My opinion
