Hey Jake. Is it possible for civil or structural engineers to find employment in fields that don't exactly relate to their studies such as the automobile, aviation and firearms industries.? 🤔
Hey is it possible for u to do another video more in depth about industrial engineering? I like the field but there isn't much videos on YT that go further than just explain what it is .
Nice! Congrats and thanks for the comment. Really glad you said that. So what are you trying to figure out next / what is on your mind about EE? Cheers and chat more soon, I respond to 100% of comments, later!
@@JakeVoorhees I was also accepted to thr 49th world ranked university in electrical engineering. there was 3 options for the major, CE IT or EE. I was quite arbitrary about this tho
@@josechristianabraham1148 dang okay well do you like programming and theoretical math and situations? That’s the main difference between EE and others. You cannot see electricity or magnetism and you need to become a good programmer. EEs take arguably the most challenging math compared to other engineers. Thanks again for the comment! Let me know if I can help w anything k cheers
@@JakeVoorhees To be honest, out of all mathematical subjects , Theoritical one such as Probabilities and discrete math is the one that I struggle the most. However, I do think it is because my limited experience on the subject, not my interest. I Also struggle in Electric and magnetism , Although I do think I had the same problem as aforementioned subject
@@JakeVoorhees Thanks for the response! I'm an incoming junior studying civil eng -- I am pressing the brakes a bit with this online semester bc of a personal rule that I wouldn't take any "real" labs online -- it works out because I'm taking a mechanical engineering minor, mostly thermal and energy centered. I hope to get a masters degree and then teach at the community/city college level to sustain myself while I continue to progress down that relative path -- Do you have any videos on this? Would you be willing to make one? Or do you have any advice right now? THANK YOU. Okay, extra context: Current classes: Thermo, Dynamics, Python (basically), Machinery Design * Considering dropping that last one... (it's not even on my registrar, just looks fun but I want to work!) * Mostly ME classes this semester (besides overlap courses) bc I'm ahead relative to certain areas in my degree
@@josephkitchen3059 Nice, I'm glad about your outlook. I'm making a video next on my tier list and I'm not that encouraging of BME. Maybe it's too harsh and maybe a bunch of BMEs will be upset, but we'll see. I can't understand why there are 7000 degrees added to the industry each year and only 21,000 jobs? I'd love to have your insights honestly. I guess so many BMEs end up working in some role that isnt a BME then right? Thanks and hope to chat more about it soon, cheers
@@grantgudmann272 Hey Grant. I LOVE your first comment man. I was just rereading it to my girlfriend sitting right now. And its funny how you said "we" :) I'm curious which part of your career plan (which I think is great by the way) is what you are asking about. I learned really quickly in grad school to eliminate any chance of misunderstanding in my writing and speech, because openness to interpretation means your reader can mess something up. So are you asking about getting a civil engineering masters? Teaching at the college level while advancing in your career? Mechanical engineering minor? The labs? I think you are asking about teaching along the way, which I think is a cool idea. But you will probably find it difficult to become an adjunct professor at such a young age. You will be younger than most of the students as these institutions often have non-traditional students. I have never heard of an adjunct being in their 20s. So yeah let me know more about what you are trying to figure out and I can help you with that. Really appreciate you being a part of the community my man. Thanks again
wow, this is the first time when I see a real engineer calling software devs "engineers" as well. Being a software engineer myself, I am really pleased to hear that :)
Hey thanks for the comment. There’s a moment in the video where Well here’s the thing right. There is a huge different between people in software development calling themselves software engineers, and the people who have legitimate engineering degrees and can call themselves a software engineer. It just sounds cooler to say engineer. Plus, software engineers design and make software. Coders and programmers and architects and developers and data scientists may never actually design and build software. So which one are you? Are you a software engineer? Cheers and thanks again, let me know what follow up questions you have and I can help you with anything okay? Thanks !!
@@JakeVoorhees Hi! Well, I have a Computer Science degree, which is technically not an Eng degree, but yes, I work in the engineering department of the Data Analytics department of a company as a Software Engineer, and I both design, architecture, and then build - we build connectors between our system and the existing tools in the company to integrate the data, also I build Business Process Automation tools to replace time-consuming user actions on our platform. Apart from this, I am doing part-time Masters in Data Science, and I wouldn't say that data scientists or data analysts don't build software - for each school project, I still have to design and build a system that will clean the data, transform the data, parse it in a certain way, and then analyze it using code. One of the requirements of the Analytics project is to be Reproducible, which means someone can take the same data and use the created code and will get the same insights. This code can even be deployed somewhere - so technically that's also "software". This is useful especially in the case of Real-Time or Streaming data Analysis. In the future, I plan to switch to Data Engineer or Machine Learning Engineer roles :) Both are slightly different but very exciting areas
Hey thanks so much for all this insight! Really appreciate the comment. Eventually, I'm going to do a video about data science. I'm particularly interested in the fact that Matt Tran's #1 video is about data science with Joma, and I am very interested in continuing to make videos with different perspectives than people like Matt, so I saved your response in a doc and may include it. Can I get in touch with you about more data science things in the future? Thanks so much, cheers! Let me know if there are any career questions I can help you with ok? Thanks
@@JakeVoorhees I watched their Data Science Expectation vs Reality video, and I think what they say can be applied to many jobs with 2 exceptions: 1. Companies, where IT is not the core of the business, can not have multiple types of Data Scientists, so most of their jobs require Data and Software Engineering skills, statistics, Artificial Intelligence, Business domain knowledge, Databases, and Advanced Degrees. 2. The nature of the job also depends on the type of data that is being analyzed. If that's some Marketing data for selling videos, obviously, someone can do a quick analysis, that does not have to be reproducible and can quickly show the insights to the managers. However, for example, I work for Pharma, so I know that most projects follow very strict guidelines, have to follow the compliance, government regulations, and the law, have to be fully unbiased, and reproducible, and properly stored since it can concern life-critical data and etc..... (you got the point) There is a difference between doing wong analysis on marketing data and selling some products to the wrong audience and then not being able to reproduce and understand why, and doing wrong analysis of clinical or pharmaceutical ingredient data....
I watched that video a while back and remember being super discouraged because I was unsure if I wanted to stay in mechanical engineering. Glad to have someone support engineering because most videos seem to just discourage it. Junior in ME right now and excited for the opportunities it will provide!
Yup! Those people suck bruh so stick with it. You can do anything you want with a mechanical engineering degree. Have you seen my ME videos? These could be helpful. “What Do Mechanical Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/5wEteXzhtak/v-deo.html “Jobs for Mechanical Engineers” ua-cam.com/video/L95q-d6FWVY/v-deo.html Let me know anything I can help you with k? I respond to all comments. Cheers!!
Jake- You are a model engineer. I can see your passion for your field and for helping others. I have watched your videos and love how you incorporate and feature ALL kinds of engineers including women and 'minorities' in your discussions. This is huge for students who don't see representations of themselves in engineering. Whenever I want my students to learn about engineering, I ask them to watch your videos because they are inclusive, informative, and practical. Keep doing what you are doing because your work is needed and valued. 😃😃
Wow what an amazing comment. Makes me want to cry. I’m really glad you recognize my inclusion because yes it’s quite intentional. I want women and future engineers of color to see themselves in the shoes as well. That’s why I do all of this. To help and inspire future engineers all around. So tell me more about you - are you a professor or engineering teacher somewhere? How can I help you and your students more? I’d love to chat with you, as I learn of educators here and there who utilize my videos, so if I can help you more I’d like to discover how. Thank you!
Wow thank you so much!! That’s a great comment and I’m really glad you found the video. I actually screen shot and save the favorite comments and this one made the list! What are you up to in your engineering journey or career? Let me know if you have any questions about anything and I can help you with those. Cheers and thanks again!!
@@JakeVoorheesi am a senior in hs that is going to college next year for chemical engineering, chemical engineering is really what I want to do but I hear many bad things about the degree, should I just switch to electrical?
I've been an engineer for a long time. IMO the best undergraduate majors (in engineering or any other field) are those that give you the most options to change your mind later. Don't choose a narrow speciality when you're 20 years old and limit your choices for the rest of your life. Stick with the traditional degrees and save the specialties for graduate school or on-the-job training.
what do you think about Mechatronics? Its a Bachelors degree here in Germany and I thought to myself that this is the best one because its not gonna limit my options when it comes to choosing my masters programm. Many thanks for the answer in advance.
@@Moos1904 I like Mechatronics - at least in principle. It combines elements of Mechanical Engr with Elelectical Engr, and both of those fields are well established, foundational and well worth your while. A Mechatronics degree is still relatively new, however, (at least in the US) and I'm not sure if the curriculum has been standardized, so it is difficult for me to comment on a particular program. But assuming your school does a proper job of it, Mechatronics should be a good choice. Best of luck.
As an engineer student, I'm so glad I ran into on UA-cam! You are very informative and you actually helped me understand the many paths I can take as I get my degree. Thank you!
Thank you so much!! I made this follow up video by the way, and several more that can help you choose the specific concentration within the big 3 engineering majors. “Best Engineering Majors | Engineering Degree Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/nfayHVJlKgQ/v-deo.html . “Mechanical Engineering Job Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/ghxBLeEX_OM/v-deo.html . “Electrical Engineering Job Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/6r3hG_zA8d8/v-deo.html "Civil Engineering Job Tier" List ua-cam.com/video/Q8ls52m18gQ/v-deo.html Does this help? Let me know what questions I can answer for you next okay? Cheers thank you !!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you!! Since I'm currently working in building automation, I enjoy working with controls and programming so I feel electrical engineering would be my best bet. But I'm still researching. Would you recommend electrical engineering?
You are welcome. Electrical Engineering is the best engineering major to me right now. I ranked it high in my degree tier list here, and below that are great jobs for electrical engineers, and $100k+ roles in the final video “Best Engineering Majors | Engineering Degree Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/nfayHVJlKgQ/v-deo.html “Electrical Engineering Job Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/6r3hG_zA8d8/v-deo.html “Jobs for Electrical Engineers over $100,000” ua-cam.com/video/Vi4hkCeNWs0/v-deo.html Let me know what I can help you with next okay? Cheers thanks
I think you’re straight up wrong about chemical engineering. Theres plenty of jobs in the pharmaceutical industry, semiconductor industry, wastewater treatment, etc etc. The topics that are taught to chemical engineers, including transport phenomena, thermodynamics, physical chemistry, and control theory are extremely marketable.
For anyone deciding; a lot of schools offer their first year as a general engineering schedule that every single first year will have and it’s great if you don’t know what you want to do. After that first year then you get to specialize or even switch out into a different STEM major because your first year is so broad
YES! Thank you for this comment. I love that universities are starting to do this. I was a first year engineer 15 years ago where I went, University of Delaware, did not have this option. But I would say 50% of the support I provide to engineering students is around choosing the right major, because its really hard to know. What did you end up going with? Let me know if there is anything I can help you with right now, and I can lend a hand for that. I respond to 100% of comments, thanks!
I’m an engineer, & I can say it’s not the only 4yr degree that pays dividends & opens up doors, my sister was ICU RN, and made/still makes more money than I do, especially during covid, we were out of work while the nursing field was cleaning up at the bank. She’s now a nurse anesthetist and makes roughly 2.5 times my salary. But as I said, even as just an ICU RN, she was raking in the dough. Since covid the system has been placing more emphasis on the healthcare industry, so I’d def recommend nursing to those, who find engineering isn’t their thing. It’s more of a durable career choice given we all get old at some point.
True. I almost chose it, but I'm glad I didn't because I was able to avoid getting vaxed because the company I work for as an engineer let us decide. Looking back, Thank god.
YUP!! Thanks so much for saying that. I guess you have the notification bell turned on huh? What are you up to in your engineering journey? Let me know what direct help I can provide you and I will support you there. Thanks so much again. I screenshot and save awesome comments so thanks so much! Cheers!
I'm so glad this video exists, I watched one of Shane's videos when I first started my undergrad in 2017 and was so unsatisfied with his ridiculous content and then I watched one again today and it was still extremely ridiculous. Cheers
Yup! That’s the best way. Thanks for the comment. And what area are you leaning towards? Let me know if there’s anything I can help you with k cheers !!
I'm senior electrical engineering student. In order to graduate in my university we have to specialize in three of these : Control system engineer, power system engineer, embedded system engineer, microelectronics engineer, communication engineer Electromagnetic engineer or image processing engineer, digital signal processing engineer or hardware engineer.
Very cool stuff, thanks for the comment. I have the perfect video for you if you need help deciding, “Jobs for Electrical Engineers over $100,000” ua-cam.com/video/Vi4hkCeNWs0/v-deo.html. Power engineering should be in your choices, and probably microelectronics and either communications or digital signal processing. But, don't worry, no matter what you choose, you aren't pigeon holing yourself into something where you cannot navigate outside of it or wherever you want later. An electrical engineering degree is one of the most flexible degrees you can have. Honestly you can work anywhere you want afterwards. What do you want to do? What's your dream job situation and I can help you figure out how to get there. I respond to 100% of comments, thanksssss!
I'm studying mechanical engineering rn. I knew I wanted to do engineering but I wasn't sure what kind. It's good knowing that I can pursue other types of engineering and I'm not restricted to what's written on my degree.
Yup!! ME is probably the most diverse degree in engineering. ME or EE. Mechanical is probably more because you can design any physical components in the world for any sector or industry, and on top of that, you can learn the programming side of things. And then you can really get any job so yes. Good call on your part. Have you seen my mechanical engineering videos?

@@JakeVoorhees I'm a senior in high school and I'm really interested in mechanical engineering ( tbh only mechatronics) but I find that the EE curriculum seems more interesting. Knowing this I researched on both fields extensively and came to the conclusion that the ME classes in general seem great (statics, dynamics, CAD classes, etc) while FEW EE classes are extremely interesting.. Would it be possible for me to major in mechanical engineering and take some electives I find interesting in EE (electroncs + electromagnetism+ controls)? Would it be too much of a course load? Edit: sorry for the long msg😪
Thanks so much! Really appreciate that. What type of engineering are you trying to do?

One of my favorite things about your channel is that I can tell you are very proud to be an engineer. I am in my last year of my aerospace engineering undergraduate program and I absolutely love my field of study. The only thing I would change is that obviously aerospace is number one then its mechanical, electrical and civil!
Heyyy thanks for the comment. Yup, you're right. I love engineering and I try to be super encouraging. I just made my own engineering degree tier list video that is out soon, and I think I made AE 4th. It's really hard for it to outweigh the big 3 engineering majors, civil/electrical/mechanical, because they are all 300,000+ jobs vs AE with 66,000. However, I did say in the video that if I was a first year engineering student right now, I would do AE for sure. I'm the most excited about that sector, and to me, it is 100% future proof.

I’m glad you blasted him. I watched his video and laughed so hard about a year ago. I’m an ee and I work at ups as a plant engineer which is the true jack of all trades. We do civil projects, lots of electrical and mechanical and so on
Not in college yet, so I'm on the fence about what imma do, so vids like this help a ton (although civil engineering is my favorite and most "passionate" option so far), keep it up lol
Nice! Thanks for the comment. Well you know I'm into civil engineering haha, as that is what I chose.

Hey thanks for the comment. Sure but there is no way he can omit software engineering from the list, so I mentioned it and didn't like that he excluded it. All good, it's a weird subject you know? There are 1.4M people working in software because there are a TOOONNNNN of people there who don't even have a college degree, not to mention a baller chemical / electrical / computer / software engineering degree that makes them a real software engineer you know?

Wow, these seem super informational, i'll be sure to check them out. If you're able to lend any advice, i've been looking for summer internships for a little while now. I've been offered two, one at garmin and one at honeywell (both for mech eng.) However, I would really like to go into aerospace (specifically astronautical). Should i wait until the right internship comes along to work in the field i want, or take whatever i can get while i'm in school?
@@jacobschmitt9983 Hi Jacob, I would suggest for you to take any internship that you can while you are in school especially those internships you mentioned, they may not be for aerospace engineering but they are mainly for mechanical engineering which is your field of study. The reason why I'm saying this is because you never know how long it will take to find the right internship you are looking for, so take this opportunity that you have, while you still can and along the way when the right internship shows up then you can switch if you want.
I just love the fact that this channel is all about Engineering so the information is much more accurate👌🏼... as a mechanical engineering student, I am much more intrested in design and computer focused jobs, rather than active and hands-on jobs. so I would really appreciate if you could make a video, going through the numbers and details of these two specific job types in mechanical engineering💥
Hey man thanks for that awesome comment. Mechanical engineering is a great career, and I think you are leaning towards the better side of things with design and computer focused jobs. The programs you would use are AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc. That is probably 90% of engineering jobs by the way. You have to really strive for a “hands on” job in engineering in order to get one. This mechanical engineering video focuses on the various sectors you can work, What Do Mechanical Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/5wEteXzhtak/v-deo.html This video isolates 5 types of mechanical engineering in order to communicate what an automotive engineer works on, an aerospace engineer, a product engineer, engineer working on software, etc. “Jobs for Mechanical Engineers” ua-cam.com/video/L95q-d6FWVY/v-deo.html If you are better at math a theoretical things and love programming, maybe EE is for you. “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html Many engineers want to work with robots. “What Do Mechatronics Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/4YjLZcQRLds/v-deo.html And here are some looking at EE. “What Do Electrical Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/zRawKI6Qsm0/v-deo.html “What Do Computer Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/hiL-cTbz188/v-deo.html Let me know what follow up questions you have k?

I want to be an aerospace engineer with an emphasis in astronautics because I want to push for the future like SpaceX. I find space-travel very fascinating.
Make sure to save a giant glass jar to collect all of your tears. Lol I'm JK it is a very challenging major but I'm so glad I've pushed through. Just 1 more year to go!
I think that is a marvelous career goal - thanks for saying that here. I would do AE if I were a first year engineer right now. I agree. I'm in love with SpaceX type stuff and cannot wait to see what we do with Moon/Mars colonization and all that. Is there anything I can help you with in your engineering career journey? Thanks a lotttt, I respond to every comment, cheers!
Haha thanks for the comment. I’m releasing my own tier list and you’ll see how an engineer quantifies and engineering tier list. Which type of engineering did you go with / are you thinking? Let me know if you have any questions ok cheers !
Why would you do that to Shane He researches alot and decides based on different parameters I would say engineering degree is useful but not evryone can get a proper engineering job Not evryone wants to work in core
Nice seeing your perspective on Shane’s video. You made plenty of good points and I think some of Shane’s points were good too. Computer engineering does seem to fit in S tier imo cuz how there’s a lot of coding involved and it’s one of the most demanded skills now and in the future too (can transition to software eng. too) and CE is a bit more broad than Aerospace. Btw, I am in my junior year of Mechanical eng., after transferring from community college last fall. It’s a bit hard but interesting. My university actually also offers Ocean engineering and Geomatics engineering which you might not heard of.
Thanks for this comment! Cool insight about computer engineering. Ya I made this video called “100 Types of Engineers” ua-cam.com/video/aKrUAEWWGtc/v-deo.html and also worked with an ocean engineer in university. It’s a cool industry. What are you trying to figure out next after your transfer from comm college into ME? Good move and good for you. You’ll always look back at that decision with pride and a smile. Let me know how I can help k cheers thanks for being here
@@JakeVoorhees I transferred from a comm. coll. into a public University last fall so I am in my second semester there now in my junior year of ME. I want to work with robotics after I graduate but I am also very open to other industries like biomedical and aerospace. They seem interesting too. I really like how broad ME is. Also, is it worth it to get a masters in ME or is just a bachelors should be ok?
Heyyy what a great comment, thank you! I really appreciate that. There are so many people who are discouraging about engineering, so I'm glad to hear this. What other engineering student/career questions do you have? Let me know so I can support you there. I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
As a fellow Engineer. You make a huge point in networking essentially you can get a degree in whatever branch of engineering that’s great. If you don’t do the networking like joining clubs or societies or even looking for internships doing the groundwork you’re going to be stuck. I’m a NE btw.
Shane is a great guy, it’s fine if you want to give your own tier list. This video just makes you sound like a hater tbh, you don’t have to base your video off another persons tier list, it just seems so childish.
Hahahah yup, sounds about right. Thanks for the comment. What are you up to into your EE career journey? How far along are you?

Hey Jake... I'm going to major electrical engineering this year and I would really love a video on skills to learn while in school that attract meaningful jobs in the 21st century. Love your work. Thank you so much!
Yuppppp, people on my 1% board have suggested that. Good request. I’ll get working on it! Make sure to have the bell turned on because it’ll probably be a couple weeks. I have a new Matt Tran rip coming out soon hahahahaha. For now, do you have any more questions? I respond to 100% of comments so I encourage you to ask whatever you like bruh thanksssss
My semester starts in the fall, and I chose chemical Engineering bc I live near Texas, where there are a BUNCH of plants. Not sure if this is the right move?...
Yeah hey thanks for the question. So in this video, I do chat about that. How based on your area, if there are a lot of XYZ niche engineering roles, and you like that direction, sure do it. I think thats okay. I live here in DuPont country and there are a lootttt of chemical engineers and they all make good $$ and have cool jobs. You cannot do that anywhere, but yeah Texas is a good place for that. You'll be fine okay, cheers thank you! Let me know what else I can help you with, thanks again! I respond to all comments, later
@@JakeVoorhees Ok, thanks for the reply! I’m deciding between chemical and mechanical engineering as my major. I’m honestly leaning toward mechanical because if I do choose chemical I would be solely dependent on working at a plant down here. With mechanical, there are a lot of different paths I can go! I can still go to a plant if I want to with mechanical engineering. I plan on moving to Texas anyways after graduation, because I feel like there are a lot more engineering opportunities in that area. Again, thanks for the guidance.
Crunch wrap supreme!!! That’s for the comment lol. Let me know what engineering questions you have and I can help you with those k? Cheers and hope to see you again on the comments!
I didnt like this video because the guy really look like attacking the guy from the other video. You can comment or analyze the video of another person and even critizice their ideas with respect but you can really see this guy is making fun of the other guy.
I don’t know... as a whole, I can see Engineering as being A rather than S considering it includes Marine Engineering, Mining Engineering, etc. If Engineering only included the good Engineering degrees, it would be S Tier for sure!
Haha I love this comment. Mining engineering is so so so small though. There’s only 200-300 graduates per year. And marine engineering is tiny as well, not as small but under 12,000 working marine engineers and that includes the job title, “naval architect”, whatever that is. Sure there are more jobs for programmers and some other things that make engineering look non-S-Tier. But the nail in the coffin for me is this. There are two degrees that are tied for first that more CEOs have than any other degree. 20% of CEOs have a business management degree, and 20% also have an engineering degree. There are no degrees that more CEOs have. Plus, more billionaires hold an engineering degree than any other type of degree. Engineering is problem solving, and this skill overall trumps just about everything else. If you can solve problems, you can make a lot of money in life. Engineering is S Tier. Shane is not an engineer, he’s a pharmacist, which is a dying industry already in its short stint of popularity. Engineering is here to stay, forever. Love you.
@@JakeVoorhees Didn’t need to throw shade at Shane! Haha! Great points tho! I can’t think of that many undergrad degrees that are as valuable as engineering!
@@NikeAirJordanGabes you’re right I’m going to take that out. This video overall isn’t liked so I think I learned from my internet experiments with throwing shade. Thank you, appreciate you
@@NikeAirJordanGabes I appreciate that but really, I don’t think people liked this video as much. So I’ve learned from and and truly do take in the constructive criticism from all of 1% Nation. What are you up to in your engineer journey? Thanks again
I started off as electrical engineering but had to switch to mechanical engineering because of financial reasons. Mechanical engineering is substantially cheaper at my university. However, I am taking some computer science classes to break into software engineering. I also plan on doing a masters in computer science. I miss electrical engineering and truly believe that it's for me. I also love mechanical and feel as though I have reached an excellent compromise for the price I'm paying. I hate that I'll miss out on all the programming and signal based classes but I enjoy my statics and dynamics courses too. Good luck to everyone out there!
My biggest regret is not majoring in Electrical engineering. I didn’t even consider it. All the other engineering degrees I had known of at the time, were not that attractive to me. Now I’ve been looking at going back and getting a degree in EE.
Hi I am an incoming electrical engineer, my first choice was computer engineer mainly because of the salary(software devs, software eng/ or i maybe interested in hardaware and the demand in future) but I got rejected in cpe department and proceded with my second choice which is electrical engineering. What made you interest in EE? I don't know much about it, and I am regretting it but maybe you can help by sharing your insights about ee.
I just got accepted into Electrical Engineering at Georgia Tech. I have the opportunity to minor in Energy Systems on a pathway specifically for EE majors. This is really an interesting field to me the more I learn about it, but I don’t know much about what that field is like in the real world. Would pursuing that minor along with an EE major make practical sense? Or would it just be a waste of effort/time. Love the videos!
Woot wooottttt, what a great school. Thanks so much for the comment. I'm not entirely sure if minoring in something is the way to go for engineers. There are not many "next step decision makers" who will be impressed with a minor, nor does it do much for you in general in terms of career advancement. Employers don’t necessarily choose job candidates or push people forward because of their minor. In fact, I only really encourage minors if you are super passionate about the field and it's more like an interesting hobby than work, because the minor will take time away from your engineering. That or, maybe you can get a minor in something like math where you only need 1-2 extra courses and do not need to add more university time, and you are so close already that it makes sense to add it. Otherwise, again, decision majors don't care about double majors, or minors at all. However, here is the good thing about minors. Say you do know what concentration or focus or sector you want to go into, then maybe a specific minor for that area will give you an advantage when entering the job market. So in your situation, maybe its okay? If its not going to add a whole lot of extra time, if you like it, etc, if everything else is a go, then go for it. Does this help and make sense? There is no right or wrong with minors. Just opinions :) Let me know what follow up questions you have k and I can help you with those. Cheers and thanks again!
Yeah it would more so be focusing your EE electives towards Energy and then you can officially get a minor if you want without adding much more time. I’m probably gonna use lots of that time to take more CS type classes as much as I can, as you and many others have referenced that plays such a huge part in EE. So I’ll probably go for the CS stuff over the Energy stuff. Thanks so much for the reply, you have no idea how helpful your videos have been!
Could you give me some advice as to how i can get in Tech? I am planning to transfer from GSU but my grades are not so impressive. In fact nothing about me is impressive cause I'm only now starting to be more serious about my future 😭
Thank you sir!! Always enjoy your comments cheers. Let me know if I can help you with anything. I chatted w Astro lately and we want to have a discord team meetup. Thanks!!
Hey thanks ya I know right. Glad to have your comment and cheers. So here are some ME resources that may help you. Here is a video that goes over a bunch of ME sectors, "What Do Mechanical Engineers Do?" ua-cam.com/video/5wEteXzhtak/v-deo.html and this one looks at careers like automotive, aerospace, product engineering for ME, etc: "Jobs for Mechanical Engineers", ua-cam.com/video/L95q-d6FWVY/v-deo.html. Many people struggle to understand they should do ME or EE, so I made this: “Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html And it’s commonly the dream to work with mechateonics or robotics, so check this out “What Do Mechatronics Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/4YjLZcQRLds/v-deo.html I hope those help and make sense! Thanks so much, and let me know what follow up questions you have okay? Cheers !!
YESS! I love this video and hate how Shane just goes over basic BLS numbers. It seems more like his channel is about pumping out as many videos as possible than it is quality. He is absolutely right when he range computer science as #1 in all of his videos though!
Yup lol. Glad other people are seeing it. And yeah I think he’s graduated from college and making UA-cam into a career, which is fine. His channel is doing great and I’m happy for him. I just don’t want him misguiding future engineers though, so he got this response and it’s been the best release in my channel history!!! What are you up to in your engineering journey? Let me know what I can help you with and I’ll see what I can do. Cheers thanks! Hope you see you again in another video.
Four months away from graduating with my University of Minnesota Aerospace Engineering B.S. degree (Guidance/Nav/Control/ML focus) with minors in Computer Science and Astrophysics. I’ve gotten offers from places like NASA and Honeywell and interviews at places like JPL, Astranis, and LLNL (interning at Honeywell in sunny Florida, round 2 this summer, at least as of now) so I’m pretty good lol. Grad school next year (the rest of my decisions come out within a couple of months!) and hopefully a job/internship at a SpaceX/Relativity/Rocket Lab/Virgin Orbit/JPL is in my future though! At least once Covid is over, I’ll be able to go to conferences again and network to get jobs at those specific companies!
@@laker4life36 Wooowww congrats for surrrree, this makes me feel really proud of you. It makes me so happy to have people like you in the community here commenting. A lot of comments are things like, "what do you think about mechanical engineering", and thats fine. I love those. And then we have you, who is essentially as successful as you can imagine and most engineers would die to have the list of things you have going on. Good for you for sure, rockstar stuff, Cheers! Listen I feature successful people on the channel like you, I'd love to potentially do something together or use you as an example of success. Is that something that you think you may be interested in? Hope to chat more about that soon, thanks so much for giving me that update. Email me if you want, hello@jakevoorhees.com thanks
@@JakeVoorhees I wouldn't exactly consider myself "successful" yet lol, but if I get accepted to MIT, USC, Georgia Tech, or Stanford for grad school in the next couple of months here or land an internship at a Blue Origin / SpaceX type company, I'd be willing to come on. Ping me in a couple of months! On one of my UA-cam videos or something.
Even though I'm not an engineering major, I absolutely agree that him just using just BLS numbers is a horrible way to pick a future career, wheather it be engineering or the humanities. There's a lot more to this then just basic statics and how much money that future career makes. I truly believe that this view has a lot due to the worker being less motivated to work, choose a future career just to make money and being bored in the job.
@@cosmicthunderdoome5250 Nahhhhh, good question - thanks for the comment. But nope you don't need to minor in anything really. It's far more about the networking and what you do on the side for experience, your portfolio, and how many and where you have interned. Plus, there is soooo much programming in EE already, you don't really have to minor in something that is super close what your major will be. I mean, here is the one consideration. Sometimes engineers only have to take like 1 or 2 more classes for something like a math minor, or for EE, say there is a computer engineering minor that you can get with just a few more classes. That is when a minor is an easy decision, but again, no one hires someone because of their minor. Does this help and make sense? Let me know what follow up or other questions you may have and I can help you with those, cheers! Appreciate you as a part of 1% Nation thankssss
I truly love your entire explanation. THANK YOU A LOT. I'm almost to decide what type of engineering if Industrial or Biomedical, I know you alredy explained but could you be more specific, focus on these two if is possible. I love medical field but my experience is more in manufactory area and third part hospital. What you suggest? Cause I'm looking to move to FIU for BME. Thanks, I'm glad to get to this channel. "Only if you're Engineering, you could advise people," and you were right with the comparison lol.
Nice!! Congrats and thanks for the comment. Where did you end up? That’s great I’m really happy for you. Let me know if I can help you with any career advice like getting promotions and whatever you are trying to figure out. I respond to all comments thanks!!
@@JakeVoorhees I was hired for the design of floating houses, but soon I will also do technical office work, development and manufacture of components of said boats. Can you imagine how much i earn monthly? So that you take into account how badly valued engineers are in other countries
Hey thanks for coming back again. Sounds like a pretty cool position. Do you like it? It's hard for me to imagine how much you earn, especially if its another country and another currency. Feel free to let me know so I can compare for you okay? Cheers! and thanks again
@@JakeVoorhees No Jake, thanks you for replying and helping us. I do like this job, and I'm getting a lot of experience since it is a new company and there's a lot of design and many manufacturing processess to implement. In my particular case, I am earning about 1300€ (around1600$) per month in Spain. I know it's very little but I was desperate to find a job since around here it's very difficult to find one, even with experience. Therefore I am at a crossroads and I don't know how to approach the issue of a salary increase that I believe is fair, without losing a job position that I honestly like. I have now 2 years of experience as mechanical engineer. Thank you, cheers!
Nice thank you for the comment! What type of engineering are you doing and what can I help you with next? Let me know so I can support you there. I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees I'm going to be a Computer Engineer. I do have a question. Should I minor in anything and if so what would be a good minor for Computer Engineers or various Engineers in general?

I think the government is a decent source for projecting how good a career is for the most part. Like you said, paradigm shifts can occur but those are super rare and rarely ever happen with any sort of frequency. I don't think Shane is trying to say the government is infallible when it comes to job forecasting, but that they're simply the best source overall.
Not to dogpile, but man I knew that guy's credibility was sus when he liked a comment under one of his videos saying, "The more women there are in your major, the more useless the degree is."
I was 100% sure I was going to pick Biomedical engineering but this Shane guy really discouraged me, I probably shouldn't even use him as a source since I don't even live in the US. I live in Ireland which is supposedly a good country for Biomedical engineers. Biomedical is the only engineering I'm really interested in, do you think it's worth doing? Also thanks for a great video.
Hey thanks for the comment. Yeah if your country is good for it and you love it, go for it. Our IG manager Rose is from Ireland so I encourage you to DM her and ask about BME in Ireland. It’s @1EngineerNation on Instagram thanks! Let me know what other questions you have okay? Cheers !!
@@JakeVoorhees I really appreciate the response, I'll definitely check that out. After watching your videos I have realized that Mechanical engineering is also a great choice. I was always under the impression that mechanical engineering was only in relation to the automotive industry but you've helped me see otherwise. Mechanical engineering may also be a good option seeing as it is more broad and can lead to more jobs, including those in the medical industry. Thanks again for your great videos.
I love how easy it is to recognize that this guy is an engineer, and that this video is just him being offended that most of the engineering fields aren't s tier 😂
i respect shane hummus and his videos are insightful but its pretty obvious that he doesnt really know what hes talking about. you have to take into account factors that arent gonna be represented by a simple statistic
so one can not read about data and make conclusions based on it? really? he must an engineer to speak about engineering? Why am I feeling a little bit of hate coming from you?
Nice! Happy to help and thanks for the comment. What types of engineers are you thinking about? Let me know what I can do to help k, cheers thanks again

So…do I need to believe him when he talks about how my dream major sucks ? 😢 Because, he is the one channel among very few channels that seems to be a high quality of content
Heyyy thanks for the comment. So you're a mechatronics professor / instructor? What a sick role. I get a lootttt of requests and questions about mechatronics career things. If you have any insight or advice or suggestions towards heading in that direction, I would love to hear your thoughts? Thanks so much !!!!
Nice! Yup, out here clowning. Thanks so much for the comment. Electrical engineering is one of the best engineering majors out there right now, in my opinion. Have you seen my EE videos? “What Do Electrical Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/zRawKI6Qsm0/v-deo.html “Jobs for Electrical Engineers over $100,000” ua-cam.com/video/Vi4hkCeNWs0/v-deo.html A lot of electrical engineers want a career in mechatronics, so I would check this out too. “What Do Mechatronics Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/4YjLZcQRLds/v-deo.html I hope this helps! Let me know what you're trying to figure out or what I can help you with okay? I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
Nah I just disagree with nearly 80% of the content and I let it be known. I emailed Shane about this. There is something fun about UA-cam "beefs" so it is what it is, thanks for the comment. Any engineering things I can help you with? Cheers thanks
Yeah, and I did so to make it obviously funny. It's pitched up and speed up by 20% he sounds like a chipmunk and its funny. When things are obviously out of place its funny. Did you think he actually had red skin too? lol
@@JakeVoorhees that’s so lame and immature. If you actually wanted to speed him up, you could’ve done so by 50% and he’d be perfectly intelligible. You obviously did it to 20% to make him sound like Ben Shapiro. I do agree that engineering degrees are in A tier and not S. If you look at how IT and medical related jobs are doing, engineering seems to be just an okay choice. Sure, medical school lasts a long time but it might be more fulfilling than engineering. Btw my plan is to become an actuary so I don’t have a dog in the fight.
Whatever man, thats a part of the creative process. What's done is done and in the hundreds of comments there are very few people upset about anything, so relax k. That's fine with your view on A and not S. You're clearly not an engineer. You cannot compare medical school with engineering - that is just ridiculous and is flawed logic, sorry. High engineering salaries can be achieved with just an undergraduate degree. Also, do you know how many kids drop out of pre-med type degrees too? Actuarial science seems fine. There aren't that many jobs, only 27,000, and how do you know you will like that? Sure it's growing fast but that doesn't mean much to be for an industry that highers so few people. I hope you like math and my actuarial friends all say their career is boring etc etc etc. I still think you should do engineering and then go into actuarial things for your career. Have you considered that? Would love to chat about that with you. And its totally fine that you think I overdid it with Shane's voice. Maybe I did. Maybe I didn't. There is no right or wrong in content - just opinions :) Cheers!
Almost seems like you and Shane spoke before this video was made or you know each other. I dont know. I do have a question would a double major in nanoengineering and computer engineering be a good idea?
Wow what awesome intuition. You’re exactly right. I emailed shane months ago and let him know I was going to create a more exaggerated beef and either dress up and make it obvious or wear a wig or something. But I decided to make it more real and honestly just let him have it. Everything I’m saying in this vidoe I really do believe and the content is authentic. I’m impressed that you knew. My Matt Tran criticism video did so well, I’ve been trying to find other ways to add value and contradict existing engineering content that needs contradiction. Humans love beefs and feuds and drama. By the way, I learned and this “manufactured beef” strategy from jake and Logan Paul and KSI and rice gum. They are all friends and hate on other another online. It works. So I’m doing a little of that but what I’m saying about my critique of his video is real. Does that make sense? Let me know if you have any engineering questions and I can help you with those, thanks!!
One big mistake he makes, I believe, is calling total jobs for a branch (like civil) as total jobs available. In other words, when the Bureau of Labor points to 329,000 civil engineering jobs, he equates that to openings. Listen carefully to some of his videos. He said as much in the comments to a video as well. Good video by the way.
Yup, he's out here clowning and doesn't know what he's talking about half the time, so thank you for pointing this out. Maybe I need to do a ruthless "finish him" (mortal combat voice) video and shred him like Tren Black did to Matt Tran. By the way, I have another Matt Tran diss video coming so stay tuned k cheers thanksss!!!
Hate it when people judge, my specialty is aerospace engineering but most engineering degrees are very similar to one another for example I got friends who study mechanical and electrical and we have very similar modules. I think at the end of the day it’s what you prefer which will determine how well your going to perform.
Yeah that’s exactly right. ME and EE are somewhat similar. EE is far more theoretical and requires a lot of programming. ME takes fluids and thermal and avoids the theoretical stuff. You can see it. You cannot see electricity or magnetism. AE is a super cool field and gets paid well, and I think has a good future for sure. Lots of space related companies now. People shouldn’t judge and ya I agree with you on all this. It’s mostly about what you like and what you wanna do. All engineering’s are great. Anything I can help you with in the student journey and or career? I respond to all comments, thanks!!
Great okay, thanks for coming back for that. I'm not that active on IG, and asking things here as a lot of secondary benefits. Others can see and learn and figure things out from your questions, and it helps the channel :) so I'd really appreciate if you can copy paste them here k? UA-cam has features such that I miss 0 comments nowadays. Thanks again!
Of-course, the best engineering degree tier list can be made only by the engineer- youtuber! Thanks for letting us know. I am as an HR person always carefully study professions but agree that the best insights can be said only by the professionals who practice it.
Heyyyy thank you so much for the comment. And yes, you're right. Shane and I have been emailing about this video, he knew it was coming, and its all good. I really appreciate the insights. What are you up to in your engineering journey? Let me know if there is anything I can help you with okay? Cheers thanks!
Make a video about how to enter the space industry, like whether should we get a degree in aerospace or get a degree in mechanical engineering. Ohh and whether is it possible to get a master in aerospace by having a mechanical degree?
Hey thanks for the comment. Good question. I do have some information on this, these videos will help: “What is Aerospace Engineering? What do Aerospace Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/vDa0fB6kxVc/v-deo.html “Aerospace Engineer Interview | How To Get A Job At Boeing | How To Get A Job At Lockheed Martin” ua-cam.com/video/NuPAiaonLrQ/v-deo.html “What is Combustion Engineering? | Can Mechanical Engineers Become Aerospace Engineers?” ua-cam.com/video/qnXpsjZcq0k/v-deo.html Aerospace VS Mechanical Engineering Hey thanks for the comment. I get a lot of “Aerospace vs Mechanical Engineering” questions. I support pure aerospace in some situations because there are a pretty good amount of jobs, 66,000 in the USA which puts it at #6 on the list. Especially if you live somewhere with solid AE industry or are willing to relocate, and you are in LOVE with the idea of working in AE for a career. I would do AE if I had to do everything over again. I'd choose AE over Civil. Seems like a little over 30% of Aerospace engineers have a master's about about half just have a bachelors. datausa.io/profile/cip/aerospace-aeronautical-astronautical-engineering You can become an aerospace engineer with either avenue, pure AE or ME with a focus in AE as a concentration. It all depends on what you want for your career. The benefit of doing ME is that it's more broad and you have more options. Sometimes students think they are going to love one sector, and then start a career there and don't like it. That is where the ME would be beneficial. You can always go to grad school in AE if you like to gain an advantage, and possibly find an employer to fund and support that. The benefit of going for AE in undergrad is that you will have an advantage over MEs if you want to get started with your career right out of undergrad, which is what I recommend. I did not go straight into working after university, and I sort of regret tha myself. So it's up to you. Some students are 100% set on grad school, and if that is the case, this entire decision matters much less. Also, I do not think people should go out of state and save $$$ and maybe your state doesn't even have any aerospace engineering programs, and you should just do mechanical based on financial reasons. I HIGHLY encourage you and your family to save the $$$ unless you guys are super well off and your parents are going to just pay for all of it. Does this help and make sense? Let me know what follow up questions you have. I respond to 100% of comments, cheers thanks!
@@JakeVoorhees This does help and makes sense, really appreciate your reply :).
However, I am a Malaysian which means most of the space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin would not hire me as an employee unless I become a US citizen, this also means I can't really go to an internship at any companies due to my major being restricted in terms of job opportunity and I am not a US citizen right? Also if I want to be a US citizen this means I need to stay in the US for more than 5 years right? If it is so, do my years as an international student count? so if it counts, I only need one more year to be a US citizen after graduation? As an international student who wishes to study and work in the space industry but isn't a US citizen, should I get a mechanical engineering degree because it is more flexible which means I could get a job first which is not space-related so at least I could wait till I am able to get into the space industry as a US citizen. Lastly, about the salary, because when I watch your videos I noticed AE earn more than ME. Does it mean that on average if I get into the space industry as a ME rather as an AE, I world earn less money at the same job and experience? Anyway, really appreciate your effort on reading my long words and still willing to reply on it.
Nahhh I mean sure I emailed Shane about this but honestly his Engineering Degree Tier list isn't accurate and the content here is super valabule. What engineering questions can I help you with? Cheers!
Jake this iron man influence is getting out of control. I miss your old intros about transportation services, real engineering done by you of course. I respect the effort you put into these videos with editing and I like the idea to trim the intro. But, you should show projects and designs that interest you in the real world. Like cutting edge technology, not movie centric.
I'm in my 3rd year, and honestly, I feel I need help. I got into engineering because I wanted to be involved with improving people's lives. Still, I don't know what area to focus on. Plus, I have a hard time retaining the knowledge.
Wow thank you so much for such an epic comment. I save comments like this by the way, screen shot them and will do something with them later. I'm just trying to help out awesome people like you, so thanks so much for you honestly. Your comments help the channel, along with liking videos and things like that.

@@JakeVoorhees yessir of course! I’ve been following your channel since 2018 when I first started my college career in engineering. You’re channel has helped me explore my options, and now I’m finally in an engineering discipline that I’m passionate about. Please keep up with the videos and I will definitely do my part in helping your channel grow in anyway possible. Future college students NEEED a channel like yours to help them through the process of finding their way, like I did. Once again, thank you so much!
I'm probably biased here as I am first year petroleum engineering student, and what you said about PE is fine, you can get into oil and gas with MechE or ChemE or any other engineering degree. Yes natural resources exploitation is damaging for the environment, but you never even gave these jobs a recognition they deserve. You wouldn't be talking here in front of a screen to us if it wasn't for carbon resources that fueled the industrial revolution (not to say humanity will inevitably have to switch to renewables in future). But then you did the same thing as Shane and just listed off all the degrees that employ less than 50 000 people as too niche arguing that you can simply branch out from one the 'major three' to them. I get that, but please don't tell me something like mining and geology is just a specialization of those three. Although the earth science and engineering incorporates a mix of the traditional eng. disciplines it is arguably a field of its own. Also, the higher pays in mining, petroleum and geology aren't just due to lucrative industry nature - you also don't just sit in a comfortable office in your hometown, but you constantly change places, work on field, work far from home withous seeing family and friends for brief period of time and have a little more extreme work/life balance than a usual engineering job. With that said, of course those engineers don't need to be any smarter than the rest of their counterparts, but they get the opportunity to travel around the world. In conclusion, no need to demonize fossil fuel unless you don't have a car and don't use any kind of motorised transport, majority of electronics and stoves. Also, no need to bash other degrees just because they aren't one of the traditional/broadest ones (on the flipside those more 'specialised' degrees have a intermix of various engineering disciplines going for them). Thanks for the in-depth critique of Shane Hummus' video and please let me know your opinion on these arguments if you feel like it.
Hi jake, i was very happy to see a real engineer's insight and approach to this ranking, primarily bc i'm graduating highschool this year and i'm considering a chemical engineering degree (ps i don't live in America so hopefully there are more opportunities), do you really think a chemical engineering degree is not a good one? Bc from what i have searched, they can work in renewable energy fields as well as pharmaceutical it doesn't really have to center around oils, gas, plastics, since we're trying to include sustainability in our lives to save the planet, i would be very happy for insight🌻 thank you for the great video.
Yeah thanks so much for such a great question. Okay so I can only really respond to this from a USA perspective, but I am not entirely supportive of chemical engineering. There are only 32,600 chemical engineers employed in the USA today, and there are over 10,000 degrees awards each year here. This mean, so many chemical engineers have to step into adjacent roles and work within some title that is not the major they studied for. Process engineering, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, plastics, food engineering - you name it. Sure its flexible and broad, but there is something very uncomfortable to see just 32,000 jobs and soooooo many degrees awarded per year. Plus, chemical engineering is usually regarded as top 3 most difficult majors based on GPA, so why even do that to yourself if you cannot get a job in ChemE? What country are you? Maybe you guys have a large chemical engineering sector, which in that case, all of this is finnnneee. So let me know more about your situation okay? I respond to every comment, so would love to continue to support you, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you sooo much for taking time and replying and helping aspiring engineers, I really think you're doing an honorable job, so what makes me consider this degree is that my country (morocco) has the biggest solar energy plant in the world so that means renewable energy and sustainability will be a major powerhouse in the future, also it just opened its first chemical engineering school in 2019 and they only accept 52 students per year, so basically if i were accepted this year and after graduating with the degree i would be the third promo, and that'll mean they'll be less than 170 engineers in the whole country, moreover each group of people will lean to choose a specific field, like pharmaceutical, food, energy that creates more opportunities.. So i hope there'll be plenty of space to squeeze myself into the job market and hopefully get a job, but with considering your opinion(of which i think very highly) i'll reconsider other majors and search more. Thank you infinitely 🌻🌻
Great video jake 👍 when chosing a field of engineering you should reflect on your geographical location. Are there experts in that field at your nearest University? The job prospects really depends on your location
Thanks so much Rose! Yes that part is super important. That is another thing I hugely value about the 1% Team. I've been able to learn more about each of your countries and the engineering aspects that are influential there. Thank you for you and everything you have done with the IG and online community since we met, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you man love the channel . If anything how to like find the right internship . Cause that’s where I’m having a hard time rn in San diefo
@@hifromspacejojo6729 Hey thanks again for coming back. So are you struggling to decide where you want to intern, or are you struggling to understand how to obtain that internship once you know where to focus? Probably the later in terms of getting an internship. Most students are desperate for any experience during COVID. Here are my suggestions: The way to get internships or any sort of experience/opportunity or role in general is to reach out to people who already know you who may know someone working in the engineering niche that you are targeting. Examples may be a professor in that niche that you have had in the past, or a leader or officer of an engineering club/society/organization in the field you are focusing on, or someone that your family knows or a family friend, or someone you met at a job fair or conference or event in that niche, etc. Join Engineers Without Borders to get experience - there are local professional chapters you can join even if you are out of school. Go to hackathons to meet people and even build some experience. Anyone that you know - ask them for introductions to engineers or for informational interview opportunities if they are in engineering now (“Informational Interview Tips“ ua-cam.com/video/nxUtpzPHKjc/v-deo.html). After that, keep in touch, and then ask about internships and other opportunities. Even volunteer roles nowadays can be a good path to a paid internship. Does that make sense? Let me know what follow up questions you have and I’ll try to help. Thanks! I will make a new video about this soon, cheers!
Just a point here in the Uk ship building an ship architecture and engineering is a large industry at least in scotland, he may have put it in just to be more diverse than just the US
@@JakeVoorhees I do have one question it might be a bit complex and more to do with economics than engineering but any idea why engineering is so undervalued in the uk compared with the US and other countries, I’ve seen MANY like a lot of British engineers emigrating to New Zealand, US and Australia just because the pay is not equivalent with the work input needed to complete the work. If you have any ideas I’d like to hear them thanks :)
Hey good question. I honestly would have to turn to Google to figure that out. Maybe the UK is closer to India in the sense that there have been too many engineering degrees generated in comparison to the amount of jobs? Salary is a function of difficulty (which is consistent from country to country) and supply and demand
@@JakeVoorhees thanks for the reply. Yeah I have done some research I think it’s mostly the job market atleast in most areas of scotland and some parts of England. The highest paying engineering jobs are in London and anywhere there’s a nuclear facility. Anywhere else you get pretty bogus wages 🙄 I’ll probably just emigrate to the US or Germany or something 😂
Hahahah thanks, appreciate the comment. What are you up to in your engineering student/career journey? Let me know what questions you may have and I can help you out with those, cheers!
That's actually the next video!!! Have you seen the ME and EE ones that have been out lately? “Mechanical Engineering Job Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/ghxBLeEX_OM/v-deo.html “Electrical Engineering Job Tier List” ua-cam.com/video/6r3hG_zA8d8/v-deo.html Let me know what else I can help you with until next week when CE Job Tier list is out. If you have the notification bell turned on you will see it right away, thank again love you !
@@JakeVoorhees i didnt watch them because they arent relevant to me as im in CE but i gave them likes because i just had to support the big boss. im so stoked for the CE vid, cant wait. thank you so much for the helpful content, much love to you too
It is coming! Penn State is involved with the video so I'm waiting on some coordination with them, thank you! Let me know what else I can help you with now okay? Cheers
I appreciate Shane's input, but you can see he isn't fluent in the math, physics and engineering field.. In one vid he said that engineering is one of the best math degrees. No. Engineering is not a math degree by far, math and engineering are fundamentally different and someone who truly loves math as a science would not be satisfied with an engineering degree. He does have a bias, but that's why you should base your decisions on many recources and not just his vids. Thanks Jake, always love to hear an engineers take on these things 👍❤️.
Yeah Shane doesn't know SH*T when it comes to engineering. So I'm really happy to see this response and comment, so thank you. What are you up to in your engineering journey / career? Let me know what I can help you with k? I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees I’d say you’re spot on about Shane’s engineering knowledge. From his channel he says he’s a pharmacist so I would put his misinformation as more being clueless than malice. One would have to wonder though, why a pharmacist wouldn’t run this list by a real engineer despite his “ton of research”
I would argue in addition to what you said about Petros that they're one of the few that also allows you to work in the field and actually get your hands dirty. I'd also argue that you do get to do get to do "additionally cool things" that many of the other disciplines don't do; travel, field work, work, etc. I'd also point out that it offers the best path to a management position in any industry due to the exposure you have to "all the money flying around" as your main goal is to reduce costs and optimize systems. This level of exposure to economics is not at all common in other disciplines and is beneficial in more than just petroleum. You did make a lot of good points outside of that though, glad to see someone cleaned up that guy's video.
I'm currently studying civil and structural engineering. In my opinion, all engineering should be respected. Nothing is better than another. U specialise and study an engineering field u enjoy. And because, engineering is so big u have a huge variation in choice 😁
YESSSS, what a great perspective. Thank you so much for this. And I really appreciate the comment, cheers to you. You're exactly right and I truly believe this is what more engineering students need to see. I'm glad you're doing civil engineering - I am a civil engineer. So what career goals do you have? Let me know what I can help you with as I respond to 100% of comments. Cheers and thank you again!!
@@JakeVoorhees Thank you for your reply. My main goal is to become a chartered structural engineer. I love structural engineering the most and want to specialise in this area. Although, I do enjoy other aspects of civil. Structural is my favourite :)
@@JakeVoorhees Jake I do have one query. I want to do a masters in structural engineering. Is it an good idea to start working straight after my degree. And hope the company would recognise my potential and sponsor my Masters. Or study Masters straight after my degree.
@@eesaarashid1954 Great question! Yes I do believe that engineers should get to work straight away after bachelors and not go to masters degree right away. I went right into my masters program and I wish I had not. There are many reasons for this. What if you don't like structural engineering as much as you think? Then maybe working for 3-5 years will help you understand what you really want to do. Also, unless you get right to work in the industry, how will you know what to focus on for your masters? You pretty much need experience to know how to advance. Otherwise you are doing it blindly. So the playbook is this. Get your engineering bachelors. Work for 4 years, take the PE, achieve that. And then you have a lot of power. You can leverage that PE with your existing employer and ask if they will fund your masters degree. Otherwise, shop around. Find a company who will, because they exist. Does this help and make sense? Thanks so much! Let me know what follow up questions you have okay, as I reply to 100% of questinos, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees what's is PE ( professional engineering) how is this different to chartered engineer. Apparently, in UK u must have a masters and experience before progressing to chartered engineer.
Which type of engineering degree did you choose? And what should I make next, thanks 1% Nation!!
Hey Jake. Is it possible for civil or structural engineers to find employment in fields that don't exactly relate to their studies such as the automobile, aviation and firearms industries.? 🤔
Hey is it possible for u to do another video more in depth about industrial engineering? I like the field but there isn't much videos on YT that go further than just explain what it is .
Computer Engineering is what I chose.
Oh crap I am a 2nd year chemical engineer
Third year chemical engineer.
I got accepted into college for electrical engineering and I am very excited that I found this channel.
Nice! Congrats and thanks for the comment. Really glad you said that. So what are you trying to figure out next / what is on your mind about EE? Cheers and chat more soon, I respond to 100% of comments, later!
@@JakeVoorhees I was also accepted to thr 49th world ranked university in electrical engineering. there was 3 options for the major, CE IT or EE. I was quite arbitrary about this tho
@@josechristianabraham1148 dang okay well do you like programming and theoretical math and situations? That’s the main difference between EE and others. You cannot see electricity or magnetism and you need to become a good programmer. EEs take arguably the most challenging math compared to other engineers. Thanks again for the comment! Let me know if I can help w anything k cheers
@@JakeVoorhees To be honest, out of all mathematical subjects , Theoritical one such as Probabilities and discrete math is the one that I struggle the most. However, I do think it is because my limited experience on the subject, not my interest. I Also struggle in Electric and magnetism , Although I do think I had the same problem as aforementioned subject
@@JakeVoorhees In the field of programming on the other hand, I also lack the experience to say that I don't like programming
FUCK YES i remember watching that video so unsatisfied we love you jake
Righhtt? Thanks for the comment! Glad you mentioned this. Which type of engineering are you going for? Cheers thanks!
@@JakeVoorhees Thanks for the response! I'm an incoming junior studying civil eng -- I am pressing the brakes a bit with this online semester bc of a personal rule that I wouldn't take any "real" labs online -- it works out because I'm taking a mechanical engineering minor, mostly thermal and energy centered. I hope to get a masters degree and then teach at the community/city college level to sustain myself while I continue to progress down that relative path -- Do you have any videos on this? Would you be willing to make one? Or do you have any advice right now? THANK YOU.
Okay, extra context:
Current classes: Thermo, Dynamics, Python (basically), Machinery Design
* Considering dropping that last one... (it's not even on my registrar, just looks fun but I want to work!)
* Mostly ME classes this semester (besides overlap courses) bc I'm ahead relative to certain areas in my degree
It was discouraging. I’m a BME and the job outlook is pretty solid.
@@josephkitchen3059 Nice, I'm glad about your outlook. I'm making a video next on my tier list and I'm not that encouraging of BME. Maybe it's too harsh and maybe a bunch of BMEs will be upset, but we'll see. I can't understand why there are 7000 degrees added to the industry each year and only 21,000 jobs? I'd love to have your insights honestly. I guess so many BMEs end up working in some role that isnt a BME then right? Thanks and hope to chat more about it soon, cheers
@@grantgudmann272 Hey Grant. I LOVE your first comment man. I was just rereading it to my girlfriend sitting right now. And its funny how you said "we" :) I'm curious which part of your career plan (which I think is great by the way) is what you are asking about. I learned really quickly in grad school to eliminate any chance of misunderstanding in my writing and speech, because openness to interpretation means your reader can mess something up.
So are you asking about getting a civil engineering masters? Teaching at the college level while advancing in your career? Mechanical engineering minor? The labs? I think you are asking about teaching along the way, which I think is a cool idea. But you will probably find it difficult to become an adjunct professor at such a young age. You will be younger than most of the students as these institutions often have non-traditional students. I have never heard of an adjunct being in their 20s.
So yeah let me know more about what you are trying to figure out and I can help you with that. Really appreciate you being a part of the community my man. Thanks again
wow, this is the first time when I see a real engineer calling software devs "engineers" as well. Being a software engineer myself, I am really pleased to hear that :)
Hey thanks for the comment. There’s a moment in the video where
Well here’s the thing right. There is a huge different between people in software development calling themselves software engineers, and the people who have legitimate engineering degrees and can call themselves a software engineer. It just sounds cooler to say engineer.
Plus, software engineers design and make software. Coders and programmers and architects and developers and data scientists may never actually design and build software.
So which one are you? Are you a software engineer? Cheers and thanks again, let me know what follow up questions you have and I can help you with anything okay? Thanks !!
@@JakeVoorhees Hi! Well, I have a Computer Science degree, which is technically not an Eng degree, but yes, I work in the engineering department of the Data Analytics department of a company as a Software Engineer, and I both design, architecture, and then build - we build connectors between our system and the existing tools in the company to integrate the data, also I build Business Process Automation tools to replace time-consuming user actions on our platform.
Apart from this, I am doing part-time Masters in Data Science, and I wouldn't say that data scientists or data analysts don't build software - for each school project, I still have to design and build a system that will clean the data, transform the data, parse it in a certain way, and then analyze it using code. One of the requirements of the Analytics project is to be Reproducible, which means someone can take the same data and use the created code and will get the same insights. This code can even be deployed somewhere - so technically that's also "software". This is useful especially in the case of Real-Time or Streaming data Analysis. In the future, I plan to switch to Data Engineer or Machine Learning Engineer roles :) Both are slightly different but very exciting areas
Hey thanks so much for all this insight! Really appreciate the comment. Eventually, I'm going to do a video about data science. I'm particularly interested in the fact that Matt Tran's #1 video is about data science with Joma, and I am very interested in continuing to make videos with different perspectives than people like Matt, so I saved your response in a doc and may include it. Can I get in touch with you about more data science things in the future? Thanks so much, cheers! Let me know if there are any career questions I can help you with ok? Thanks
@@JakeVoorhees Sure, you can add me on Linked In - Ofeliia Bagratian :) happy to connect
@@JakeVoorhees I watched their Data Science Expectation vs Reality video, and I think what they say can be applied to many jobs with 2 exceptions:
1. Companies, where IT is not the core of the business, can not have multiple types of Data Scientists, so most of their jobs require Data and Software Engineering skills, statistics, Artificial Intelligence, Business domain knowledge, Databases, and Advanced Degrees.
2. The nature of the job also depends on the type of data that is being analyzed. If that's some Marketing data for selling videos, obviously, someone can do a quick analysis, that does not have to be reproducible and can quickly show the insights to the managers. However, for example, I work for Pharma, so I know that most projects follow very strict guidelines, have to follow the compliance, government regulations, and the law, have to be fully unbiased, and reproducible, and properly stored since it can concern life-critical data and etc..... (you got the point) There is a difference between doing wong analysis on marketing data and selling some products to the wrong audience and then not being able to reproduce and understand why, and doing wrong analysis of clinical or pharmaceutical ingredient data....
I watched that video a while back and remember being super discouraged because I was unsure if I wanted to stay in mechanical engineering. Glad to have someone support engineering because most videos seem to just discourage it. Junior in ME right now and excited for the opportunities it will provide!
Yup! Those people suck bruh so stick with it. You can do anything you want with a mechanical engineering degree. Have you seen my ME videos? These could be helpful.

Jake- You are a model engineer. I can see your passion for your field and for helping others. I have watched your videos and love how you incorporate and feature ALL kinds of engineers including women and 'minorities' in your discussions. This is huge for students who don't see representations of themselves in engineering. Whenever I want my students to learn about engineering, I ask them to watch your videos because they are inclusive, informative, and practical. Keep doing what you are doing because your work is needed and valued. 😃😃
Wow what an amazing comment. Makes me want to cry. I’m really glad you recognize my inclusion because yes it’s quite intentional. I want women and future engineers of color to see themselves in the shoes as well.
That’s why I do all of this. To help and inspire future engineers all around.
So tell me more about you - are you a professor or engineering teacher somewhere? How can I help you and your students more? I’d love to chat with you, as I learn of educators here and there who utilize my videos, so if I can help you more I’d like to discover how. Thank you!
You have basically explained every single engineer career in one video, you have earned my respect
Wow thank you so much!! That’s a great comment and I’m really glad you found the video. I actually screen shot and save the favorite comments and this one made the list! What are you up to in your engineering journey or career? Let me know if you have any questions about anything and I can help you with those. Cheers and thanks again!!
@@JakeVoorhees Hey jake, can you make a video talking about the engineering stuff from iron man? Thx luv ur channel! :)
@@JakeVoorheesi am a senior in hs that is going to college next year for chemical engineering, chemical engineering is really what I want to do but I hear many bad things about the degree, should I just switch to electrical?
Damn, a lot of shade here.
I've been an engineer for a long time. IMO the best undergraduate majors (in engineering or any other field) are those that give you the most options to change your mind later. Don't choose a narrow speciality when you're 20 years old and limit your choices for the rest of your life. Stick with the traditional degrees and save the specialties for graduate school or on-the-job training.
Do you think Mechanical Engineering is a great choice? Please answer, thanks. 🙏🏾
what’s an imo?
@@samograff8303 "imo" stands for "in my opinion"
what do you think about Mechatronics? Its a Bachelors degree here in Germany and I thought to myself that this is the best one because its not gonna limit my options when it comes to choosing my masters programm. Many thanks for the answer in advance.
@@Moos1904 I like Mechatronics - at least in principle. It combines elements of Mechanical Engr with Elelectical Engr, and both of those fields are well established, foundational and well worth your while. A Mechatronics degree is still relatively new, however, (at least in the US) and I'm not sure if the curriculum has been standardized, so it is difficult for me to comment on a particular program. But assuming your school does a proper job of it, Mechatronics should be a good choice. Best of luck.
As an engineer student, I'm so glad I ran into on UA-cam! You are very informative and you actually helped me understand the many paths I can take as I get my degree. Thank you!
Thank you so much!! I made this follow up video by the way, and several more that can help you choose the specific concentration within the big 3 engineering majors.

I think you’re straight up wrong about chemical engineering. Theres plenty of jobs in the pharmaceutical industry, semiconductor industry, wastewater treatment, etc etc. The topics that are taught to chemical engineers, including transport phenomena, thermodynamics, physical chemistry, and control theory are extremely marketable.
Those jobs get taken by mechanical , electrical, and computer scientists.
For anyone deciding; a lot of schools offer their first year as a general engineering schedule that every single first year will have and it’s great if you don’t know what you want to do. After that first year then you get to specialize or even switch out into a different STEM major because your first year is so broad
YES! Thank you for this comment. I love that universities are starting to do this. I was a first year engineer 15 years ago where I went, University of Delaware, did not have this option. But I would say 50% of the support I provide to engineering students is around choosing the right major, because its really hard to know. What did you end up going with? Let me know if there is anything I can help you with right now, and I can lend a hand for that. I respond to 100% of comments, thanks!
I’m an engineer, & I can say it’s not the only 4yr degree that pays dividends & opens up doors, my sister was ICU RN, and made/still makes more money than I do, especially during covid, we were out of work while the nursing field was cleaning up at the bank. She’s now a nurse anesthetist and makes roughly 2.5 times my salary. But as I said, even as just an ICU RN, she was raking in the dough. Since covid the system has been placing more emphasis on the healthcare industry, so I’d def recommend nursing to those, who find engineering isn’t their thing. It’s more of a durable career choice given we all get old at some point.
True. I almost chose it, but I'm glad I didn't because I was able to avoid getting vaxed because the company I work for as an engineer let us decide. Looking back, Thank god.

What’s ur degree
I chose my degree thinking "what I want to do?"
Yup! That’s the best way. Thanks for the comment. And what area are you leaning towards? Let me know if there’s anything I can help you with k cheers !!
I'm senior electrical engineering student. In order to graduate in my university we have to specialize in three of these : Control system engineer, power system engineer, embedded system engineer, microelectronics engineer, communication engineer Electromagnetic engineer or image processing engineer, digital signal processing engineer or hardware engineer.
Very cool stuff, thanks for the comment. I have the perfect video for you if you need help deciding, “Jobs for Electrical Engineers over $100,000” ua-cam.com/video/Vi4hkCeNWs0/v-deo.html. Power engineering should be in your choices, and probably microelectronics and either communications or digital signal processing.
But, don't worry, no matter what you choose, you aren't pigeon holing yourself into something where you cannot navigate outside of it or wherever you want later. An electrical engineering degree is one of the most flexible degrees you can have. Honestly you can work anywhere you want afterwards. What do you want to do? What's your dream job situation and I can help you figure out how to get there. I respond to 100% of comments, thanksssss!
I'm studying mechanical engineering rn. I knew I wanted to do engineering but I wasn't sure what kind. It's good knowing that I can pursue other types of engineering and I'm not restricted to what's written on my degree.
Yup!! ME is probably the most diverse degree in engineering. ME or EE. Mechanical is probably more because you can design any physical components in the world for any sector or industry, and on top of that, you can learn the programming side of things. And then you can really get any job so yes. Good call on your part.

@@JakeVoorhees I'm a senior in high school and I'm really interested in mechanical engineering ( tbh only mechatronics) but I find that the EE curriculum seems more interesting. Knowing this I researched on both fields extensively and came to the conclusion that the ME classes in general seem great (statics, dynamics, CAD classes, etc) while FEW EE classes are extremely interesting..
Would it be possible for me to major in mechanical engineering and take some electives I find interesting in EE (electroncs + electromagnetism+ controls)? Would it be too much of a course load?

One of my favorite things about your channel is that I can tell you are very proud to be an engineer. I am in my last year of my aerospace engineering undergraduate program and I absolutely love my field of study. The only thing I would change is that obviously aerospace is number one then its mechanical, electrical and civil!
Heyyy thanks for the comment. Yup, you're right. I love engineering and I try to be super encouraging. I just made my own engineering degree tier list video that is out soon, and I think I made AE 4th. It's really hard for it to outweigh the big 3 engineering majors, civil/electrical/mechanical, because they are all 300,000+ jobs vs AE with 66,000. However, I did say in the video that if I was a first year engineering student right now, I would do AE for sure. I'm the most excited about that sector, and to me, it is 100% future proof.

Should i wait until the right internship comes along to work in the field i want, or take whatever i can get while i'm in school?
@@jacobschmitt9983 Hi Jacob, I would suggest for you to take any internship that you can while you are in school especially those internships you mentioned, they may not be for aerospace engineering but they are mainly for mechanical engineering which is your field of study. The reason why I'm saying this is because you never know how long it will take to find the right internship you are looking for, so take this opportunity that you have, while you still can and along the way when the right internship shows up then you can switch if you want.
I just love the fact that this channel is all about Engineering so the information is much more accurate👌🏼... as a mechanical engineering student, I am much more intrested in design and computer focused jobs, rather than active and hands-on jobs.
so I would really appreciate if you could make a video, going through the numbers and details of these two specific job types in mechanical engineering💥
Hey man thanks for that awesome comment. Mechanical engineering is a great career, and I think you are leaning towards the better side of things with design and computer focused jobs. The programs you would use are AutoCAD, SolidWorks, etc. That is probably 90% of engineering jobs by the way. You have to really strive for a “hands on” job in engineering in order to get one.
This mechanical engineering video focuses on the various sectors you can work, What Do Mechanical Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/5wEteXzhtak/v-deo.html
This video isolates 5 types of mechanical engineering in order to communicate what an automotive engineer works on, an aerospace engineer, a product engineer, engineer working on software, etc.

@@JakeVoorhees this really made me feel a lot more comfortable and interested in my degree . Thank you !
@@freshman4993 Yeah bro, ME is fresh, mannnnn. hahahah. Honestly you're going to be fine. All engineers will. Shane and Matt should not be scaring people away from engineering. Let me know in the comments whatever else I can help you with in the future k? Cheers bruuuhhhh
I want to be an aerospace engineer with an emphasis in astronautics because I want to push for the future like SpaceX. I find space-travel very fascinating.
Make sure to save a giant glass jar to collect all of your tears. Lol I'm JK it is a very challenging major but I'm so glad I've pushed through. Just 1 more year to go!
Hahahaha your comments are my favorite. I feel proud of you for making it to the end! Ask whatever questions you have here k cheers thanks again!!
I think that is a marvelous career goal - thanks for saying that here. I would do AE if I were a first year engineer right now. I agree. I'm in love with SpaceX type stuff and cannot wait to see what we do with Moon/Mars colonization and all that. Is there anything I can help you with in your engineering career journey? Thanks a lotttt, I respond to every comment, cheers!
This came across as elitist and cringe, I don't think Jake understands how tier lists work
Haha thanks for the comment. I’m releasing my own tier list and you’ll see how an engineer quantifies and engineering tier list. Which type of engineering did you go with / are you thinking? Let me know if you have any questions ok cheers !
Why would you do that to Shane
He researches alot and decides based on different parameters
I would say engineering degree is useful but not evryone can get a proper engineering job
Not evryone wants to work in core
Nice seeing your perspective on Shane’s video. You made plenty of good points and I think some of Shane’s points were good too.
Computer engineering does seem to fit in S tier imo cuz how there’s a lot of coding involved and it’s one of the most demanded skills now and in the future too (can transition to software eng. too) and CE is a bit more broad than Aerospace.
Btw, I am in my junior year of Mechanical eng., after transferring from community college last fall. It’s a bit hard but interesting. My university actually also offers Ocean engineering and Geomatics engineering which you might not heard of.
Thanks for this comment! Cool insight about computer engineering. Ya I made this video called “100 Types of Engineers” ua-cam.com/video/aKrUAEWWGtc/v-deo.html and also worked with an ocean engineer in university. It’s a cool industry.
What are you trying to figure out next after your transfer from comm college into ME? Good move and good for you. You’ll always look back at that decision with pride and a smile. Let me know how I can help k cheers thanks for being here
@@JakeVoorhees I transferred from a comm. coll. into a public University last fall so I am in my second semester there now in my junior year of ME. I want to work with robotics after I graduate but I am also very open to other industries like biomedical and aerospace. They seem interesting too. I really like how broad ME is.
Also, is it worth it to get a masters in ME or is just a bachelors should be ok?
During these times your videos really motivate me. Keep up the quality content !
Heyyy what a great comment, thank you! I really appreciate that. There are so many people who are discouraging about engineering, so I'm glad to hear this. What other engineering student/career questions do you have? Let me know so I can support you there. I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
me* focusing more on the background looking for books to read next😌
As a fellow Engineer. You make a huge point in networking essentially you can get a degree in whatever branch of engineering that’s great. If you don’t do the networking like joining clubs or societies or even looking for internships doing the groundwork you’re going to be stuck.
I’m a NE btw.
Shane is a great guy, it’s fine if you want to give your own tier list. This video just makes you sound like a hater tbh, you don’t have to base your video off another persons tier list, it just seems so childish.
I chose mechanical engineering because I like building things.
Niicccee, thanks for the comment. What is your ME dream job? Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with k? Cheers thanks!
I’m going to school for EE in fall! So happy to look back at this comment.
You really cleared things up for me, lol.
I am currently looking at Mechanical Engineering, glad it's top 3, so I'll be checking it out.

Hey Jake... I'm going to major electrical engineering this year and I would really love a video on skills to learn while in school that attract meaningful jobs in the 21st century.
Love your work. Thank you so much!
Yuppppp, people on my 1% board have suggested that. Good request. I’ll get working on it! Make sure to have the bell turned on because it’ll probably be a couple weeks. I have a new Matt Tran rip coming out soon hahahahaha. For now, do you have any more questions? I respond to 100% of comments so I encourage you to ask whatever you like bruh thanksssss
@@JakeVoorhees wow you really do care. Thank you once more. Looking forward to the episode :)
My semester starts in the fall, and I chose chemical Engineering bc I live near Texas, where there are a BUNCH of plants. Not sure if this is the right move?...
Yeah hey thanks for the question. So in this video, I do chat about that. How based on your area, if there are a lot of XYZ niche engineering roles, and you like that direction, sure do it. I think thats okay. I live here in DuPont country and there are a lootttt of chemical engineers and they all make good $$ and have cool jobs. You cannot do that anywhere, but yeah Texas is a good place for that. You'll be fine okay, cheers thank you! Let me know what else I can help you with, thanks again! I respond to all comments, later
@@JakeVoorhees Ok, thanks for the reply! I’m deciding between chemical and mechanical engineering as my major. I’m honestly leaning toward mechanical because if I do choose chemical I would be solely dependent on working at a plant down here. With mechanical, there are a lot of different paths I can go! I can still go to a plant if I want to with mechanical engineering. I plan on moving to Texas anyways after graduation, because I feel like there are a lot more engineering opportunities in that area. Again, thanks for the guidance.
@@DukeCommitt Add some computer science to those degrees and you can choose to live wherever you want
Damn you crunched hummus
Crunch wrap supreme!!! That’s for the comment lol. Let me know what engineering questions you have and I can help you with those k? Cheers and hope to see you again on the comments!
I didnt like this video because the guy really look like attacking the guy from the other video. You can comment or analyze the video of another person and even critizice their ideas with respect but you can really see this guy is making fun of the other guy.
Well its more accurate
*I like this video a lot Jake!*
*We gotta try out some new stuff this year!*
thanks Siddu, yeah trying some new stuff like ripping people hahahahaha. Hope you're doing well, cheers man
I don’t know... as a whole, I can see Engineering as being A rather than S considering it includes Marine Engineering, Mining Engineering, etc. If Engineering only included the good Engineering degrees, it would be S Tier for sure!
Haha I love this comment. Mining engineering is so so so small though. There’s only 200-300 graduates per year. And marine engineering is tiny as well, not as small but under 12,000 working marine engineers and that includes the job title, “naval architect”, whatever that is.
Sure there are more jobs for programmers and some other things that make engineering look non-S-Tier.
But the nail in the coffin for me is this. There are two degrees that are tied for first that more CEOs have than any other degree. 20% of CEOs have a business management degree, and 20% also have an engineering degree. There are no degrees that more CEOs have.
Plus, more billionaires hold an engineering degree than any other type of degree. Engineering is problem solving, and this skill overall trumps just about everything else. If you can solve problems, you can make a lot of money in life.
Engineering is S Tier. Shane is not an engineer, he’s a pharmacist, which is a dying industry already in its short stint of popularity. Engineering is here to stay, forever. Love you.
@@JakeVoorhees Didn’t need to throw shade at Shane! Haha! Great points tho! I can’t think of that many undergrad degrees that are as valuable as engineering!
@@NikeAirJordanGabes you’re right I’m going to take that out. This video overall isn’t liked so I think I learned from my internet experiments with throwing shade. Thank you, appreciate you
@@JakeVoorhees No no! It was funny lmao! I was kidding!
@@NikeAirJordanGabes I appreciate that but really, I don’t think people liked this video as much. So I’ve learned from and and truly do take in the constructive criticism from all of 1% Nation. What are you up to in your engineer journey? Thanks again
I started off as electrical engineering but had to switch to mechanical engineering because of financial reasons. Mechanical engineering is substantially cheaper at my university. However, I am taking some computer science classes to break into software engineering. I also plan on doing a masters in computer science. I miss electrical engineering and truly believe that it's for me. I also love mechanical and feel as though I have reached an excellent compromise for the price I'm paying. I hate that I'll miss out on all the programming and signal based classes but I enjoy my statics and dynamics courses too. Good luck to everyone out there!
Ok don't give it hard. You shouldn't be great engineer like Nikola Tesla
My biggest regret is not majoring in Electrical engineering. I didn’t even consider it. All the other engineering degrees I had known of at the time, were not that attractive to me. Now I’ve been looking at going back and getting a degree in EE.
Hi I am an incoming electrical engineer, my first choice was computer engineer mainly because of the salary(software devs, software eng/ or i maybe interested in hardaware and the demand in future) but I got rejected in cpe department and proceded with my second choice which is electrical engineering. What made you interest in EE? I don't know much about it, and I am regretting it but maybe you can help by sharing your insights about ee.
I just got accepted into Electrical Engineering at Georgia Tech. I have the opportunity to minor in Energy Systems on a pathway specifically for EE majors. This is really an interesting field to me the more I learn about it, but I don’t know much about what that field is like in the real world. Would pursuing that minor along with an EE major make practical sense? Or would it just be a waste of effort/time. Love the videos!
Woot wooottttt, what a great school. Thanks so much for the comment.
I'm not entirely sure if minoring in something is the way to go for engineers. There are not many "next step decision makers" who will be impressed with a minor, nor does it do much for you in general in terms of career advancement. Employers don’t necessarily choose job candidates or push people forward because of their minor. In fact, I only really encourage minors if you are super passionate about the field and it's more like an interesting hobby than work, because the minor will take time away from your engineering. That or, maybe you can get a minor in something like math where you only need 1-2 extra courses and do not need to add more university time, and you are so close already that it makes sense to add it. Otherwise, again, decision majors don't care about double majors, or minors at all.
However, here is the good thing about minors. Say you do know what concentration or focus or sector you want to go into, then maybe a specific minor for that area will give you an advantage when entering the job market. So in your situation, maybe its okay? If its not going to add a whole lot of extra time, if you like it, etc, if everything else is a go, then go for it.
Does this help and make sense? There is no right or wrong with minors. Just opinions :) Let me know what follow up questions you have k and I can help you with those. Cheers and thanks again!
Yeah it would more so be focusing your EE electives towards Energy and then you can officially get a minor if you want without adding much more time. I’m probably gonna use lots of that time to take more CS type classes as much as I can, as you and many others have referenced that plays such a huge part in EE. So I’ll probably go for the CS stuff over the Energy stuff. Thanks so much for the reply, you have no idea how helpful your videos have been!
Could you give me some advice as to how i can get in Tech? I am planning to transfer from GSU but my grades are not so impressive. In fact nothing about me is impressive cause I'm only now starting to be more serious about my future 😭
Great video, It's always good that there are different voices in youtube and help people see things in multiple angles
Editing is 🔥 🔥 🔥
Thank you sir!! Always enjoy your comments cheers. Let me know if I can help you with anything. I chatted w Astro lately and we want to have a discord team meetup. Thanks!!
As someone who studied Mechanical, Shane's video initially confused me, but it is good to have these debates.
Hey thanks ya I know right. Glad to have your comment and cheers. So here are some ME resources that may help you.
Here is a video that goes over a bunch of ME sectors, "What Do Mechanical Engineers Do?" ua-cam.com/video/5wEteXzhtak/v-deo.html and this one looks at careers like automotive, aerospace, product engineering for ME, etc:
"Jobs for Mechanical Engineers", ua-cam.com/video/L95q-d6FWVY/v-deo.html.
Many people struggle to understand they should do ME or EE, so I made this:
“Mechanical VS Electrical Engineering” ua-cam.com/video/6PJ-Yw5qVsc/v-deo.html
And it’s commonly the dream to work with mechateonics or robotics, so check this out
“What Do Mechatronics Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/4YjLZcQRLds/v-deo.html
I hope those help and make sense! Thanks so much, and let me know what follow up questions you have okay? Cheers !!
YESS! I love this video and hate how Shane just goes over basic BLS numbers. It seems more like his channel is about pumping out as many videos as possible than it is quality.
He is absolutely right when he range computer science as #1 in all of his videos though!
Yup lol. Glad other people are seeing it. And yeah I think he’s graduated from college and making UA-cam into a career, which is fine. His channel is doing great and I’m happy for him. I just don’t want him misguiding future engineers though, so he got this response and it’s been the best release in my channel history!!!
What are you up to in your engineering journey? Let me know what I can help you with and I’ll see what I can do. Cheers thanks! Hope you see you again in another video.
Four months away from graduating with my University of Minnesota Aerospace Engineering B.S. degree (Guidance/Nav/Control/ML focus) with minors in Computer Science and Astrophysics. I’ve gotten offers from places like NASA and Honeywell and interviews at places like JPL, Astranis, and LLNL (interning at Honeywell in sunny Florida, round 2 this summer, at least as of now) so I’m pretty good lol. Grad school next year (the rest of my decisions come out within a couple of months!) and hopefully a job/internship at a SpaceX/Relativity/Rocket Lab/Virgin Orbit/JPL is in my future though! At least once Covid is over, I’ll be able to go to conferences again and network to get jobs at those specific companies!
@@laker4life36 Wooowww congrats for surrrree, this makes me feel really proud of you. It makes me so happy to have people like you in the community here commenting. A lot of comments are things like, "what do you think about mechanical engineering", and thats fine. I love those. And then we have you, who is essentially as successful as you can imagine and most engineers would die to have the list of things you have going on. Good for you for sure, rockstar stuff, Cheers! Listen I feature successful people on the channel like you, I'd love to potentially do something together or use you as an example of success. Is that something that you think you may be interested in? Hope to chat more about that soon, thanks so much for giving me that update. Email me if you want, hello@jakevoorhees.com thanks
@@JakeVoorhees I wouldn't exactly consider myself "successful" yet lol, but if I get accepted to MIT, USC, Georgia Tech, or Stanford for grad school in the next couple of months here or land an internship at a Blue Origin / SpaceX type company, I'd be willing to come on. Ping me in a couple of months! On one of my UA-cam videos or something.
Even though I'm not an engineering major, I absolutely agree that him just using just BLS numbers is a horrible way to pick a future career, wheather it be engineering or the humanities.
There's a lot more to this then just basic statics and how much money that future career makes. I truly believe that this view has a lot due to the worker being less motivated to work, choose a future career just to make money and being bored in the job.
Great video man. I watch Shane Hummus lol. You just got a new subscriber. :)
Awesome! Thank you! Are you going to choose engineering? Let me know how else I can help you. I respond to all comments, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees Yeah Im choosing Electrical Engineering. Should I minor in Software Engineering while majoring in EE?
@@cosmicthunderdoome5250 Nahhhhh, good question - thanks for the comment. But nope you don't need to minor in anything really. It's far more about the networking and what you do on the side for experience, your portfolio, and how many and where you have interned. Plus, there is soooo much programming in EE already, you don't really have to minor in something that is super close what your major will be. I mean, here is the one consideration. Sometimes engineers only have to take like 1 or 2 more classes for something like a math minor, or for EE, say there is a computer engineering minor that you can get with just a few more classes. That is when a minor is an easy decision, but again, no one hires someone because of their minor. Does this help and make sense? Let me know what follow up or other questions you may have and I can help you with those, cheers! Appreciate you as a part of 1% Nation thankssss
I truly love your entire explanation. THANK YOU A LOT. I'm almost to decide what type of engineering if Industrial or Biomedical, I know you alredy explained but could you be more specific, focus on these two if is possible. I love medical field but my experience is more in manufactory area and third part hospital. What you suggest? Cause I'm looking to move to FIU for BME. Thanks, I'm glad to get to this channel. "Only if you're Engineering, you could advise people," and you were right with the comparison lol.
Thanks for the video. Proud mechanical engineer here. (Finally with a job)

@@JakeVoorhees I was hired for the design of floating houses, but soon I will also do technical office work, development and manufacture of components of said boats. Can you imagine how much i earn monthly? So that you take into account how badly valued engineers are in other countries
Hey thanks for coming back again. Sounds like a pretty cool position. Do you like it? It's hard for me to imagine how much you earn, especially if its another country and another currency. Feel free to let me know so I can compare for you okay? Cheers! and thanks again
@@JakeVoorhees No Jake, thanks you for replying and helping us.
I do like this job, and I'm getting a lot of experience since it is a new company and there's a lot of design and many manufacturing processess to implement.
In my particular case, I am earning about 1300€ (around1600$) per month in Spain. I know it's very little but I was desperate to find a job since around here it's very difficult to find one, even with experience. Therefore I am at a crossroads and I don't know how to approach the issue of a salary increase that I believe is fair, without losing a job position that I honestly like. I have now 2 years of experience as mechanical engineer.
Thank you, cheers!

I think the government is a decent source for projecting how good a career is for the most part. Like you said, paradigm shifts can occur but those are super rare and rarely ever happen with any sort of frequency. I don't think Shane is trying to say the government is infallible when it comes to job forecasting, but that they're simply the best source overall.
Hummus isnt an engineer? Lol so he just talks out of his ass 😂
Not to dogpile, but man I knew that guy's credibility was sus when he liked a comment under one of his videos saying, "The more women there are in your major, the more useless the degree is."
Are you serious? Unbelievable! I'm so glad I unsubscribed from him a couple years ago.
@cyancyborg1477
How was he wrong exactly?
I get that exceptions exist for everything but they're just that.
I was 100% sure I was going to pick Biomedical engineering but this Shane guy really discouraged me, I probably shouldn't even use him as a source since I don't even live in the US. I live in Ireland which is supposedly a good country for Biomedical engineers. Biomedical is the only engineering I'm really interested in, do you think it's worth doing? Also thanks for a great video.
Hey thanks for the comment. Yeah if your country is good for it and you love it, go for it. Our IG manager Rose is from Ireland so I encourage you to DM her and ask about BME in Ireland. It’s @1EngineerNation on Instagram thanks! Let me know what other questions you have okay? Cheers !!
@@JakeVoorhees I really appreciate the response, I'll definitely check that out. After watching your videos I have realized that Mechanical engineering is also a great choice. I was always under the impression that mechanical engineering was only in relation to the automotive industry but you've helped me see otherwise. Mechanical engineering may also be a good option seeing as it is more broad and can lead to more jobs, including those in the medical industry. Thanks again for your great videos.
I love how easy it is to recognize that this guy is an engineer, and that this video is just him being offended that most of the engineering fields aren't s tier 😂
i respect shane hummus and his videos are insightful but its pretty obvious that he doesnt really know what hes talking about. you have to take into account factors that arent gonna be represented by a simple statistic
so one can not read about data and make conclusions based on it? really? he must an engineer to speak about engineering? Why am I feeling a little bit of hate coming from you?
That was a great video! I am just getting into figuring out what I want to do, and this really helped me narrow it down!

You even manipulated his voice. Go to the actual video and he’s got a decent voice imo.
Nah I just disagree with nearly 80% of the content and I let it be known. I emailed Shane about this. There is something fun about UA-cam "beefs" so it is what it is, thanks for the comment. Any engineering things I can help you with? Cheers thanks
Yeah, and I did so to make it obviously funny. It's pitched up and speed up by 20% he sounds like a chipmunk and its funny. When things are obviously out of place its funny. Did you think he actually had red skin too? lol
@@JakeVoorhees that’s so lame and immature. If you actually wanted to speed him up, you could’ve done so by 50% and he’d be perfectly intelligible. You obviously did it to 20% to make him sound like Ben Shapiro.
I do agree that engineering degrees are in A tier and not S. If you look at how IT and medical related jobs are doing, engineering seems to be just an okay choice. Sure, medical school lasts a long time but it might be more fulfilling than engineering. Btw my plan is to become an actuary so I don’t have a dog in the fight.
Whatever man, thats a part of the creative process. What's done is done and in the hundreds of comments there are very few people upset about anything, so relax k.
That's fine with your view on A and not S. You're clearly not an engineer. You cannot compare medical school with engineering - that is just ridiculous and is flawed logic, sorry. High engineering salaries can be achieved with just an undergraduate degree. Also, do you know how many kids drop out of pre-med type degrees too?
Actuarial science seems fine. There aren't that many jobs, only 27,000, and how do you know you will like that? Sure it's growing fast but that doesn't mean much to be for an industry that highers so few people.
I hope you like math and my actuarial friends all say their career is boring etc etc etc. I still think you should do engineering and then go into actuarial things for your career. Have you considered that?
Would love to chat about that with you. And its totally fine that you think I overdid it with Shane's voice. Maybe I did. Maybe I didn't. There is no right or wrong in content - just opinions :) Cheers!
Love your description of industrial engineering.
Almost seems like you and Shane spoke before this video was made or you know each other. I dont know. I do have a question would a double major in nanoengineering and computer engineering be a good idea?
Wow what awesome intuition. You’re exactly right. I emailed shane months ago and let him know I was going to create a more exaggerated beef and either dress up and make it obvious or wear a wig or something. But I decided to make it more real and honestly just let him have it. Everything I’m saying in this vidoe I really do believe and the content is authentic. I’m impressed that you knew. My Matt Tran criticism video did so well, I’ve been trying to find other ways to add value and contradict existing engineering content that needs contradiction.
Humans love beefs and feuds and drama.
By the way, I learned and this “manufactured beef” strategy from jake and Logan Paul and KSI and rice gum. They are all friends and hate on other another online. It works.
So I’m doing a little of that but what I’m saying about my critique of his video is real. Does that make sense? Let me know if you have any engineering questions and I can help you with those, thanks!!
'do you think they were predicting the explosion of the internet'
yes... and i lived through it.
One big mistake he makes, I believe, is calling total jobs for a branch (like civil) as total jobs available. In other words, when the Bureau of Labor points to 329,000 civil engineering jobs, he equates that to openings. Listen carefully to some of his videos. He said as much in the comments to a video as well.
Good video by the way.
Yup, he's out here clowning and doesn't know what he's talking about half the time, so thank you for pointing this out. Maybe I need to do a ruthless "finish him" (mortal combat voice) video and shred him like Tren Black did to Matt Tran. By the way, I have another Matt Tran diss video coming so stay tuned k cheers thanksss!!!
Hate it when people judge, my specialty is aerospace engineering but most engineering degrees are very similar to one another for example I got friends who study mechanical and electrical and we have very similar modules. I think at the end of the day it’s what you prefer which will determine how well your going to perform.
Yeah that’s exactly right. ME and EE are somewhat similar. EE is far more theoretical and requires a lot of programming. ME takes fluids and thermal and avoids the theoretical stuff. You can see it. You cannot see electricity or magnetism. AE is a super cool field and gets paid well, and I think has a good future for sure. Lots of space related companies now. People shouldn’t judge and ya I agree with you on all this. It’s mostly about what you like and what you wanna do. All engineering’s are great.
Anything I can help you with in the student journey and or career? I respond to all comments, thanks!!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you for the comment! I do have a few questions which I messaged you on Instagram after giving you a follow! :)
Great okay, thanks for coming back for that. I'm not that active on IG, and asking things here as a lot of secondary benefits. Others can see and learn and figure things out from your questions, and it helps the channel :) so I'd really appreciate if you can copy paste them here k? UA-cam has features such that I miss 0 comments nowadays. Thanks again!
Of-course, the best engineering degree tier list can be made only by the engineer- youtuber! Thanks for letting us know. I am as an HR person always carefully study professions but agree that the best insights can be said only by the professionals who practice it.
Heyyyy thank you so much for the comment. And yes, you're right. Shane and I have been emailing about this video, he knew it was coming, and its all good. I really appreciate the insights. What are you up to in your engineering journey? Let me know if there is anything I can help you with okay? Cheers thanks!
Make a video about how to enter the space industry, like whether should we get a degree in aerospace or get a degree in mechanical engineering. Ohh and whether is it possible to get a master in aerospace by having a mechanical degree?
Hey thanks for the comment. Good question. I do have some information on this, these videos will help:
“What is Aerospace Engineering? What do Aerospace Engineers Do?” ua-cam.com/video/vDa0fB6kxVc/v-deo.html
“Aerospace Engineer Interview | How To Get A Job At Boeing | How To Get A Job At Lockheed Martin” ua-cam.com/video/NuPAiaonLrQ/v-deo.html

Aerospace VS Mechanical Engineering
Hey thanks for the comment. I get a lot of “Aerospace vs Mechanical Engineering” questions. I support pure aerospace in some situations because there are a pretty good amount of jobs, 66,000 in the USA which puts it at #6 on the list. Especially if you live somewhere with solid AE industry or are willing to relocate, and you are in LOVE with the idea of working in AE for a career. I would do AE if I had to do everything over again. I'd choose AE over Civil.
Seems like a little over 30% of Aerospace engineers have a master's about about half just have a bachelors. datausa.io/profile/cip/aerospace-aeronautical-astronautical-engineering
You can become an aerospace engineer with either avenue, pure AE or ME with a focus in AE as a concentration. It all depends on what you want for your career.
The benefit of doing ME is that it's more broad and you have more options. Sometimes students think they are going to love one sector, and then start a career there and don't like it. That is where the ME would be beneficial. You can always go to grad school in AE if you like to gain an advantage, and possibly find an employer to fund and support that.
The benefit of going for AE in undergrad is that you will have an advantage over MEs if you want to get started with your career right out of undergrad, which is what I recommend. I did not go straight into working after university, and I sort of regret tha myself.
So it's up to you. Some students are 100% set on grad school, and if that is the case, this entire decision matters much less. Also, I do not think people should go out of state and save $$$ and maybe your state doesn't even have any aerospace engineering programs, and you should just do mechanical based on financial reasons. I HIGHLY encourage you and your family to save the $$$ unless you guys are super well off and your parents are going to just pay for all of it.
Does this help and make sense? Let me know what follow up questions you have. I respond to 100% of comments, cheers thanks!
@@JakeVoorhees This does help and makes sense, really appreciate your reply :).
However, I am a Malaysian which means most of the space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin would not hire me as an employee unless I become a US citizen, this also means I can't really go to an internship at any companies due to my major being restricted in terms of job opportunity and I am not a US citizen right?
Also if I want to be a US citizen this means I need to stay in the US for more than 5 years right? If it is so, do my years as an international student count? so if it counts, I only need one more year to be a US citizen after graduation?
As an international student who wishes to study and work in the space industry but isn't a US citizen, should I get a mechanical engineering degree because it is more flexible which means I could get a job first which is not space-related so at least I could wait till I am able to get into the space industry as a US citizen.
Lastly, about the salary, because when I watch your videos I noticed AE earn more than ME. Does it mean that on average if I get into the space industry as a ME rather as an AE, I world earn less money at the same job and experience?
Anyway, really appreciate your effort on reading my long words and still willing to reply on it.
Wasted 20 minutes of my life on a fake youtube beef
Nahhh I mean sure I emailed Shane about this but honestly his Engineering Degree Tier list isn't accurate and the content here is super valabule. What engineering questions can I help you with? Cheers!
Jake this iron man influence is getting out of control. I miss your old intros about transportation services, real engineering done by you of course. I respect the effort you put into these videos with editing and I like the idea to trim the intro.
But, you should show projects and designs that interest you in the real world. Like cutting edge technology, not movie centric.
Cool ya thanks for the feedback. I’ve played with the intro over the last 8 months so maybe maybe that’ll happen. Cheers appreciate it!!
I'm in my 3rd year, and honestly, I feel I need help. I got into engineering because I wanted to be involved with improving people's lives. Still, I don't know what area to focus on. Plus, I have a hard time retaining the knowledge.
I remember watching that video and it was so obviously untrue. Glad you gave a touch in this
Yup what a joker lol thanks Momen
I LOVE YOU!
Thank you for calling out these channels that share their NEGATIVE biased opinions towards ENGINEERING and not FACTS #YouAreTheTRUTH #1%
Wow thank you so much for such an epic comment. I save comments like this by the way, screen shot them and will do something with them later. I'm just trying to help out awesome people like you, so thanks so much for you honestly. Your comments help the channel, along with liking videos and things like that. Make sure you have the notification bell turned on so you don't miss any videos, thank youuuu! And let me know what questions I can answer okay? I respond to 100% of comments, cheers thanks!!
@@JakeVoorhees yessir of course! I’ve been following your channel since 2018 when I first started my college career in engineering. You’re channel has helped me explore my options, and now I’m finally in an engineering discipline that I’m passionate about. Please keep up with the videos and I will definitely do my part in helping your channel grow in anyway possible. Future college students NEEED a channel like yours to help them through the process of finding their way, like I did. Once again, thank you so much!
This ranking guy is out to lunch
Right?!?!? Thanks for the comment. Let me know if you have any engineering questions that I can help you with k? Cheers thanks
Wouldve loved this video more if u weren't attacking him and his video.
I'm probably biased here as I am first year petroleum engineering student, and what you said about PE is fine, you can get into oil and gas with MechE or ChemE or any other engineering degree.
Yes natural resources exploitation is damaging for the environment, but you never even gave these jobs a recognition they deserve. You wouldn't be talking here in front of a screen to us if it wasn't for carbon resources that fueled the industrial revolution (not to say humanity will inevitably have to switch to renewables in future).
But then you did the same thing as Shane and just listed off all the degrees that employ less than 50 000 people as too niche arguing that you can simply branch out from one the 'major three' to them.
I get that, but please don't tell me something like mining and geology is just a specialization of those three. Although the earth science and engineering incorporates a mix of the traditional eng. disciplines it is arguably a field of its own. Also, the higher pays in mining, petroleum and geology aren't just due to lucrative industry nature - you also don't just sit in a comfortable office in your hometown, but you constantly change places, work on field, work far from home withous seeing family and friends for brief period of time and have a little more extreme work/life balance than a usual engineering job.
With that said, of course those engineers don't need to be any smarter than the rest of their counterparts, but they get the opportunity to travel around the world.
In conclusion, no need to demonize fossil fuel unless you don't have a car and don't use any kind of motorised transport, majority of electronics and stoves.
Also, no need to bash other degrees just because they aren't one of the traditional/broadest ones (on the flipside those more 'specialised' degrees have a intermix of various engineering disciplines going for them).
Thanks for the in-depth critique of Shane Hummus' video and please let me know your opinion on these arguments if you feel like it.
Hi jake, i was very happy to see a real engineer's insight and approach to this ranking, primarily bc i'm graduating highschool this year and i'm considering a chemical engineering degree (ps i don't live in America so hopefully there are more opportunities), do you really think a chemical engineering degree is not a good one? Bc from what i have searched, they can work in renewable energy fields as well as pharmaceutical it doesn't really have to center around oils, gas, plastics, since we're trying to include sustainability in our lives to save the planet, i would be very happy for insight🌻 thank you for the great video.
Yeah thanks so much for such a great question. Okay so I can only really respond to this from a USA perspective, but I am not entirely supportive of chemical engineering. There are only 32,600 chemical engineers employed in the USA today, and there are over 10,000 degrees awards each year here. This mean, so many chemical engineers have to step into adjacent roles and work within some title that is not the major they studied for. Process engineering, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, plastics, food engineering - you name it. Sure its flexible and broad, but there is something very uncomfortable to see just 32,000 jobs and soooooo many degrees awarded per year. Plus, chemical engineering is usually regarded as top 3 most difficult majors based on GPA, so why even do that to yourself if you cannot get a job in ChemE?
What country are you? Maybe you guys have a large chemical engineering sector, which in that case, all of this is finnnneee. So let me know more about your situation okay? I respond to every comment, so would love to continue to support you, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you sooo much for taking time and replying and helping aspiring engineers, I really think you're doing an honorable job, so what makes me consider this degree is that my country (morocco) has the biggest solar energy plant in the world so that means renewable energy and sustainability will be a major powerhouse in the future, also it just opened its first chemical engineering school in 2019 and they only accept 52 students per year, so basically if i were accepted this year and after graduating with the degree i would be the third promo, and that'll mean they'll be less than 170 engineers in the whole country, moreover each group of people will lean to choose a specific field, like pharmaceutical, food, energy that creates more opportunities.. So i hope there'll be plenty of space to squeeze myself into the job market and hopefully get a job, but with considering your opinion(of which i think very highly) i'll reconsider other majors and search more. Thank you infinitely 🌻🌻
That Humus looked tasty, all jokes aside, this is a great video.
Haha it's funny bc it was actually just runny peanut butter and a tortilla chip hahahahaha, thanks for commenting
Chemical engineering trying to focus in healthcare/pharmaceuticals
I want to be the niche everybody needs even doctors need in the care for people
I want to be an Environmental Engineer and this swept my doubts away. Thank you!
Great video jake 👍 when chosing a field of engineering you should reflect on your geographical location. Are there experts in that field at your nearest University? The job prospects really depends on your location
Thanks so much Rose! Yes that part is super important. That is another thing I hugely value about the 1% Team. I've been able to learn more about each of your countries and the engineering aspects that are influential there. Thank you for you and everything you have done with the IG and online community since we met, cheers!
I’m currently in school for mechanical engineering
Nice! Thanks for the comment. What are you trying to figure out next? Let me know so I can help, thankssss
@@JakeVoorhees thank you man love the channel . If anything how to like find the right internship . Cause that’s where I’m having a hard time rn in San diefo
@@hifromspacejojo6729 Hey thanks again for coming back. So are you struggling to decide where you want to intern, or are you struggling to understand how to obtain that internship once you know where to focus? Probably the later in terms of getting an internship. Most students are desperate for any experience during COVID. Here are my suggestions:
The way to get internships or any sort of experience/opportunity or role in general is to reach out to people who already know you who may know someone working in the engineering niche that you are targeting. Examples may be a professor in that niche that you have had in the past, or a leader or officer of an engineering club/society/organization in the field you are focusing on, or someone that your family knows or a family friend, or someone you met at a job fair or conference or event in that niche, etc. Join Engineers Without Borders to get experience - there are local professional chapters you can join even if you are out of school. Go to hackathons to meet people and even build some experience.
Anyone that you know - ask them for introductions to engineers or for informational interview opportunities if they are in engineering now (“Informational Interview Tips“ ua-cam.com/video/nxUtpzPHKjc/v-deo.html). After that, keep in touch, and then ask about internships and other opportunities. Even volunteer roles nowadays can be a good path to a paid internship. Does that make sense? Let me know what follow up questions you have and I’ll try to help. Thanks!
I will make a new video about this soon, cheers!
Just a point here in the Uk ship building an ship architecture and engineering is a large industry at least in scotland, he may have put it in just to be more diverse than just the US
Hey thanks for that insight :) let me know if you have any engineering questions oky? Thanks !
@@JakeVoorhees I do have one question it might be a bit complex and more to do with economics than engineering but any idea why engineering is so undervalued in the uk compared with the US and other countries, I’ve seen MANY like a lot of British engineers emigrating to New Zealand, US and Australia just because the pay is not equivalent with the work input needed to complete the work.
If you have any ideas I’d like to hear them thanks :)
Hey good question. I honestly would have to turn to Google to figure that out. Maybe the UK is closer to India in the sense that there have been too many engineering degrees generated in comparison to the amount of jobs? Salary is a function of difficulty (which is consistent from country to country) and supply and demand
@@JakeVoorhees thanks for the reply. Yeah I have done some research I think it’s mostly the job market atleast in most areas of scotland and some parts of England. The highest paying engineering jobs are in London and anywhere there’s a nuclear facility. Anywhere else you get pretty bogus wages 🙄 I’ll probably just emigrate to the US or Germany or something 😂
0:28 OOOOOF AHAHAH YOOO he can not return back after that
Hahahah thanks, appreciate the comment. What are you up to in your engineering student/career journey? Let me know what questions you may have and I can help you out with those, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees thank you so much for your content. Could you please make Civil Engineering Job Tier List?

Haha brooo, chill chill. Thanks for giving us this video!!!!
hahahah thanks, appreciate the comment. Let me know what I can help you with okay? Cheers thanks!
I appreciate Shane's input, but you can see he isn't fluent in the math, physics and engineering field.. In one vid he said that engineering is one of the best math degrees. No. Engineering is not a math degree by far, math and engineering are fundamentally different and someone who truly loves math as a science would not be satisfied with an engineering degree. He does have a bias, but that's why you should base your decisions on many recources and not just his vids. Thanks Jake, always love to hear an engineers take on these things 👍❤️.
Yeah Shane doesn't know SH*T when it comes to engineering. So I'm really happy to see this response and comment, so thank you. What are you up to in your engineering journey / career? Let me know what I can help you with k? I respond to 100% of comments, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees I’d say you’re spot on about Shane’s engineering knowledge. From his channel he says he’s a pharmacist so I would put his misinformation as more being clueless than malice. One would have to wonder though, why a pharmacist wouldn’t run this list by a real engineer despite his “ton of research”
It's finally here!😃
You really ate hummus🤣🤣🤣
yup, its here! thanks Zik
@@zik9938 CRUNNNCCHHHHH
@@JakeVoorhees 🤣🤣🤣
@@JakeVoorhees you think we'll get a reaction to this reaction?
I already have the degree and career in mind alongside tactics and strategies for engineering, but this was still entertaining.
Is mining engineering a good career to go to as only a bachelors and having a it support certification
I would argue in addition to what you said about Petros that they're one of the few that also allows you to work in the field and actually get your hands dirty. I'd also argue that you do get to do get to do "additionally cool things" that many of the other disciplines don't do; travel, field work, work, etc. I'd also point out that it offers the best path to a management position in any industry due to the exposure you have to "all the money flying around" as your main goal is to reduce costs and optimize systems. This level of exposure to economics is not at all common in other disciplines and is beneficial in more than just petroleum.
You did make a lot of good points outside of that though, glad to see someone cleaned up that guy's video.
I'm currently studying civil and structural engineering. In my opinion, all engineering should be respected. Nothing is better than another. U specialise and study an engineering field u enjoy. And because, engineering is so big u have a huge variation in choice 😁
YESSSS, what a great perspective. Thank you so much for this. And I really appreciate the comment, cheers to you. You're exactly right and I truly believe this is what more engineering students need to see. I'm glad you're doing civil engineering - I am a civil engineer. So what career goals do you have? Let me know what I can help you with as I respond to 100% of comments. Cheers and thank you again!!
@@JakeVoorhees Thank you for your reply. My main goal is to become a chartered structural engineer. I love structural engineering the most and want to specialise in this area. Although, I do enjoy other aspects of civil. Structural is my favourite :)
@@JakeVoorhees Jake I do have one query. I want to do a masters in structural engineering. Is it an good idea to start working straight after my degree. And hope the company would recognise my potential and sponsor my Masters. Or study Masters straight after my degree.
@@eesaarashid1954 Great question! Yes I do believe that engineers should get to work straight away after bachelors and not go to masters degree right away. I went right into my masters program and I wish I had not. There are many reasons for this. What if you don't like structural engineering as much as you think? Then maybe working for 3-5 years will help you understand what you really want to do. Also, unless you get right to work in the industry, how will you know what to focus on for your masters? You pretty much need experience to know how to advance. Otherwise you are doing it blindly.
So the playbook is this. Get your engineering bachelors. Work for 4 years, take the PE, achieve that. And then you have a lot of power. You can leverage that PE with your existing employer and ask if they will fund your masters degree. Otherwise, shop around. Find a company who will, because they exist.
Does this help and make sense? Thanks so much! Let me know what follow up questions you have okay, as I reply to 100% of questinos, cheers!
@@JakeVoorhees what's is PE ( professional engineering) how is this different to chartered engineer. Apparently, in UK u must have a masters and experience before progressing to chartered engineer.
