Renewable Energy is heavily interdisciplinary. I would recommend taking electives or even a minor to develop a stronger grasp. For example, I am studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Electrical Engineering. There are so many paths you can take in terms of studies in order to pursue a career in renewable energy, so make sure to do lots of research to determine what kind of path best suits you.
@@georgewashingtoniv8745The difficulties experienced in studying PoliSci and History Classes vs those experienced in taking up Renewable Energy Courses are so different. Mathematics is the main barrier that allows you or not to enter Renewable Energy studies. The topics include Electromechanical Systems, Energy Conversion, Thermal Power Engineering, Semiconductors, Mechanics of Materials, Materials Science, and Computer Simulations. PoliSci and History courses just require great memory.
Thanks, MajorPrep! You have already helped me in choosing my future career path, and your videos really have high quality content. You deserve more subs, bro! Peace!
Hi! 2 years later from this comment, as in now, how are you doing with your career? Im shifting from acctg career to env. Science and i wanna do renewable energy research, but im lost right now hehe
@@Mb-vr3kj If you're in school level and want to pursue Renewables here me out: My cousin got bachelor's degree in Mechanical engineering and pursuing Masters in petroleum engineering. Once get graduated, it sure will pay you large sums of money. You know people say petrol is over, the future is renewables but Petrol will be definitely available for atleast 50+ years. So, there is still huge value for Fossil fuels & Petroleum Engineers.(especially in Gulf countries) But also that doesn't mean there is no value for Renewables. There is value,but it is still growing. It still has pros and cons. I'm in my final year of Electrical engineering and interested in Renewables. So if you want to make career in Renewables, do engg in Mech/Electrical & electronics/Chemical/ metallurgy and do masters in Energy/Solar/Wind/Nuclear engineering. Also there are renewables integrated degrees like Bachelor's in Renewable energy engineering programs and then do Masters in either Solar/ wind / Bioenergy. If you're interested in engg. Be strong in basics & keep yourself updated with new technologies.
That Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series sounds like a fantastic choice for outdoor enthusiasts and RV lovers! With its massive capacity, fast recharging, and waterproof technology, it's definitely a reliable backup power source. Plus, the ability to monitor and control energy usage through the app is a great feature. Thanks for sharing this recommendation!
@@UnOrthodox_Christian I'm from mechanical engineering background and want to work for environment especially physical oceanography so what master's degree program should I choose. Should I go for environmental science or mechanical engineering?
Could you do a video on general engineering? I noticed smaller schools like swarthmore and harvey mudd have very good engineering programs but the only degree they offer is that in general engineering. Does the lack of specialization make for an unsafe/unreliable degree?
Awesome video, you rock. Thank you so much. Could you please do a second video on renewable energy focusing on the differences between mechanical and electrical engineering? I have been bouncing back-and-forth between the two fields trying to figure out which one would be a better fit. I am sure I'm not the only one that struggles with this choice. Thank you so much again, keep up the good work and take care.
Thanks for the comment! I'll see what I can do. I know a lot of these aren't extremely specific when you have it narrowed down that much, but I'll keep that in mind!
I appreciate this video as it's quite an eyeopener. I've contemplated going into the renewable industry but as a design engineer, or environmental engineer, I'm stuck deciding which field reaps the most rewards. On one hand I feel like there's a great sense of pride and commitment in unifying with industries that promote sustainable living and reduction of a nations ecological footprint, on the other I've wanted a job in the stem field that allows creative flexibility, like in designing and construction of technologies that can both benefit us while preserving the Earths precious resources. My question boils down to what major provides the best of both worlds in terms of design and construction?
Hey major prep! How is it going? Awesome video!. Really interseting. I didn't know that many different majors could relate to one especific subject. It's incredible how many ways yhere are to incursionate into this field (much more now that is being so asked) great work!. Keep it up! Pd: i would really like to see a video about the majors of engineering physics or engineering science. I'm in senior year and I'm really interested in those two. However i've still got some knowledge blankspots about the degrees. Thanks
This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "easy way to make electricity" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Diyadison Penhloe Blaster - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a great one off guide for generating your own electricity minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my co-worker got cool results with it.
Is environmental engineering related to these aspects？I am studying at environmental engineering and I want to be a part of creating or improving the renewable energy systems. Is it possible for me to study these stuffs after my balcher？
Renewable energy is the direction that the US will be heading towards. As he pointed out we don't use much renewable energy in the US at this time. This means a ton of jobs in the very very near future. I for one am looking into being a wind turbine technician. I'm doing this before they turn it into a two or four year degree.
So you can say that there are two main types of energy sources: 1- Thermal (Nuclear, Coal, Oil and Gas) and 2- Renewable (Wind, Solar, Bio, Geo, Hydro and Marine). This is what I got from your video. Am I right?
He stated at the beginning of the video that there are three main types of energy sources. Your categories don't make much sense, as there is a lot of overlap between renewable and thermal energy. Biofuels and Geo-thermal, to name a couple. Nuclear energy is usually considered distinct from all other energy sources, due to its unusual combination of zero carbon emissions at the point of generation, and use of a finite natural resource. There is not really a right way to categorize energy sources, it depends on the context. In recent years, they tend to be divided by environmental impact.
Very informative video MajorPrep!! I'm nearing the end of my Chemical Engineering bachelors, and I want to continue my studies in energy sytems/renewable energy. What Masters do you recommend I do?
Actually power and all renewable energy are part of Electrical Engineering cuz it all deals with electricity at the end and in the video he didn't say much about electrical engineering cuz all of what's mentioned suits it actually I'm doing a abachelor degree in electrical engineering and my concentration is power and renewable energy
Hey majorprep guy, are you familiar with the concepts of a resource-based economy and what engineering major do you think would serve the best social utility if used for the express purpose of providing an abundance of a life-supporting good in the most efficient and sustainable way possible? Im thinking geothermal engineering but i want a second opinion
I have completed my btech in electrical and electronic engineering and my mtech was on power and energy systems engineering...my research was on dye sensitized solar cell....I want to do PhD...but I am confused which I have to do
I have watched all three of your videos on which degrees would be good for A.I. nanotechnology and renewable energy and i noticed that electrical engineering was listed in all 3 so im just wondering if electrical engineering is a good career for someone who wants to work with versatility
Yes electrical and mechanical engineering are two of the best majors for versatility. Many more fall in that category of course but those 2 definitely come to mind.
Can one engineering field go Into other engineering fields for renewable pr does that mean person has to study that major Can a person enter mechanical eng then specialise to renewable to do electrical eng stuff u mentioned or is that not possible
I have done my bachelors in electrical engineering and now i want to do master in renewable energy is it a good choice or bad choice. Kindly someone suggest me what should i do now?
Hey there, i do hv bachelor in elecrical eng, and i want to take master in renewable energy next year. Did you already take ur master in renewable energy?
We are going to have to begin serious conversations about the REAL problem with lack of progression of renewable energy. Until we start discussing this real block, it will continue un-abated. I have made it my mission to begin to help people understand what and who the real enemy is, (the fossil fuels industry)and exactly how we can fight this enemy effectively. Wanna fight?
