specialist degree in mechanical engineering

[luciano1989]

Hello everyone!! the moment of the arduous choice regarding the specialist degree is getting closer and closer: I frequent the polytechnic of bari and I am about to begin the third and last year of mechanical ing of 1° level, but I am still very confused and uncertain regarding the continuation of my studies. fundamentally, I am oriented towards 2 alternatives in particular: Land vehicles, certainly my passion always, and plants, address that I was particularly advised for the considerable work outlets that it offers, contrary to the first view of the rise of the hybrid and the electric at the disadvantage of internal combustion engines. Premitting that two addresses are very interesting but the first has always been a great charm on me, would you recommend me? which of these the market requires and remains more profitable? Thank you in advance! !

It's not that the address is taken into consideration by companies when you're a mechanical engineer enough, they're hardly going to see the specialization address.
what matters is to end quickly (on that they look at us, better a graduate with 102/110 of 25 years than one with 110/110 of 29), and then choose a good subject of thesis, in the sense that if you end up doing the thesis in the right environment, it can be a great trampoline of launch towards the assumption in the company itself in which you have done the thesis, so obviously avoid carefully the theses done within the various departments!

So you're telling me that a specialized in terrestrial vehicles would also try to find work in the energy, plant, technology, and vice versa? Are skills the same or do they mature at the workplace? However, I thank you for the timing board to graduate, I was already aware of it.. ;-)

I also did plant address but I never saw a pipe in my life.... gears and brushless motors instead many... :wink:

thank you so much.. at this point the question that is lawful to ask is because so many specialized degrees if at the end of the accounts one is worth the other.. .

depends on what you want to do in life: If you want to get into the fiat, then maybe someone who has a specialist address will be preferred. If you are looking for a job in medium-sized companies, maybe in the surroundings, I don't think there will be any problems. I, for example, met nuclear engineers doing my own job. In the end, engineers who really do a job that really requires the skills acquired in the specialization I think are very few, others "make the bones" working, putting to fruit the elasticity' and the speed of learning that are typical of the technicians trained by this course of studies.

simple fashion, vezzo, pure self-gratification of professors.

the addresses were valid when they indicated a whole branch of knowledge and it was not thinkable to "shift" from one to another, as well as a "civil" will hardly make the "mechanical" or "naval".

then shortening the time of graduation, 10 years were too many (you had to be unemployed from before) went to 6 then to 5, too few to do all the exams.

the factory became "specialistic" and everyone did only the exams that "interested", a planter didn't have to study the engines in internal conbustion!

my goal is not a company in particular, but try to experience many companies in the early years so as to enrich the curriculum in such a way as to have done a good career already after 30 years; In this context my personal impression is that while plants or energy give a very broad perspective of work, terrestrial vehicles is a somewhat restrictive area, limited to vehicle dynamics and the design of internal combustion engines, on which the research has already made giant steps.
