adwaani:I would have taken your postulate serious had it been you're a graduate ![]() I believe graduands who have faced and experienced the rigors and quagmires in the labour market,not from someone who only has a modicum or even no experience. ![]() ![]() |

croSStodds: yeah bro,you got a point there......all the best though |

croSStodds:Na, wasn't for me. I left the engrs in my group to continue their "financial engineering" Left the entire country actually NEPA light is not my destiny |

@ Op 1.Success is a Function of Positive inputs you Feed yourself with...I hope you will understand that. 2. From your Post you will be 200level soon, yet of all other Fields Mechanical Engineering comes to mind-What's that telling you? 3. But your responses so far seems you want to pitch tent with what you're involved with already. 4. Both of them are nice Courses but obviously one has more prospect Mechanical Engineering cuts across Plenty disciplines from within Engineering to outside it. 5. Well math guys may be deeper in mathematics than Engineers but remember you want to be an entrepreneur, your depth of knowledge in maths will be useful in Quantum Mechanics and the likes(even in the quantum mechanics there is still mechanics...lols that on a lighter note) but I don't see most of them becoming entrepreneurs, like Hawkins , Feynman, Einstein, etc I may be wrong. 6.Civil Engineering may be the oldest but mechanical Engineer is the broadest in our sophomore year All Engineering students did more Mech courses than others. 7. To be honest Op I wasn't happy with this your comparison....haba of all courses but that's my personal opinion though. 8. You're about making a life long decision, analyse what has been typed thus far, carry out further research but this time I'll advise you meet one on one with people in both fields, if. you're a Christ trust the Holy Spirit to help you, take out time to pray. MAKE YOUR DECISION! God has gotten the best of plans for you. 9. My 2cents 10. Go and Succeed |

eduj: Please re read what I posted. I said mechanical engineering being phased out. I well know what mechatronics is and most of it is EE. There are just more jobs in EE than ME. So what ever you choose is up to you. I am AE and can do ME (thermofluids and heat transfer) but there are far more diverse opportunities in EE. If someone would have told me to major in EE in college, I would thank them now |
Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by Nobody: 9:40pm On Jan 04, 2016 |
Seedorrf: Electrical Engineers only have more opportunities in telecoms. This is an untrue statement and is elementary at best. EE is telecom, it security, avionics, car circuitry, weaponeering, machinery, exploration, surveillance, energy, water treatment, etc. I am AE and had I known better, I would have majored in EE. |

Mathematics/statistics - Prospects: school teacher, no requisite skill to be self-employed. Mech engineering - Prospects: oil and gas (blowin money fast), manufacturing industries, any production plant, statistician in any company, bank and finance institutions (as far as naija is concerned mech engineers can do anything) |
Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by Nobody: 9:49pm On Jan 04, 2016 |
Sosaf1ed: I guess this is the difference then. Where I am, EEs can do anything. 1 Like |

well in my own opinion, I think any matured individual should know where he or she fits in best... since I was a kid, I've always dreamt of being a mechanical engineer and by God's grace, I've not followed another path..i believe I will get a good job when I graduate .. 200 level now |
Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by nigeriancuban: 11:48pm On Jan 04, 2016 |
being a mechanical engineer in naija is the best place to begin with poverty and joblessness,even when you have a job poverty will still chase you....a third world country like ours is no place for such courses for now. |

martineverest: Have been reading comment since and observing...but with this your comment ehn I just have to ask you which maths are dey doing in engineering abi? And most of what is in your K.H engine maths are what my brother used to prepare for his GCE if with my guidance and trust me he passed in flying colours. Then after 200L and part of 300L, your engine maths so so useless to a Mathematician cos the little Maths you guys are doing in 400L they done that in early 200L.too much bragging cos of this nation sef no get bearing...Engineering Stand on the foundation of Mathematics and Physics just as Statistics also emanate from Mathematics. By the way my engineer, we never get light o and our roads are still not motorable. I am a Statistician so contact me if you need facts about that bro. |

Engrpj:Even with your clarification, the courses you called mechanical courses are classified as Civil courses in some universities, and are offered by the civil department. So you have all other engineering taking the civil courses as prerequisites to their departmental concentrations. All Engineering faculties in the world have different methods of course delivery. For example, the course below are delivered by the civil engineering department of the university I obtained my masters degree from. 1. Advanced Mechanics of Solids 2. Elasticity 3. Plasticity 4. Fracture Mechanics 5. Advanced Dynamics 6. Plates and Shells 7. Non-Destructive Testing 8. Experimental Stress and Strain Analysis 9. Finite Element Methods 10. Numerical Engineering Analysis |

elume2020:Nothing more to add. @op. if you decide to stay in Nigeria, study mech, but if you are considering studying post graduate overseas, stick with maths. |

Am currently studying project management Technology at the lagos state university . I have so many questions to ask about the course but haven't found the right person to ask ..please does anybody have any idea..where can i work with the course...is the course marketable?...is the course an underrated course?... |
Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by Engrpj(m): 7:07am On Jan 05, 2016 |
saxywale: Bros stop diverting from the main Gist... Moreover Finite Element method and numerical analysis are mathematics courses.. and apart from the two courses how many Engineering departments are offering all these courses you mentioned from year 1-2 ![]() Fluid Mechanics Engineering Drawing Thermodynamics workshop practice Engineering mechanics.. these courses must be offered by every Engine engineering student.... which happen to be offered by mechanical dept...... |
Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by Engrpj(m): 7:13am On Jan 05, 2016 |
greatsodade: If Mechanical Engineers Offer Mathematics courses from year 1-4, out of their 5 years of studies, Can you tell me how many Mechanical Engineering courses you offered in your 4 years of studies ![]() |

Re: Mathematics/stastistics Vs Mechanical Engineering by Nobody: 4:04am On Jan 06, 2016 |
Engrpj: Apart from Numerical Engineering Analysis, Finite Element method was founded by Alexander Hrennikoff, a Russian-Canadian Structural Engineer. He graduated from the Institute of Railway Engineering in Moscow, received M.A.Sc. degree from the University of British Columbia (1933), and D.Sc degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1941). From 1933 until his death in 1984 he worked as a professor of Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia. Workshop practice? what Engineering school still offer such an archaic course ![]() I also apologize. Bro, after going through your profile, I just realised that you are still a fresh engineering graduate, and not yet an engineer. All the best in your endeavours. |
