ABOUT ME:
My name is Tamer Shaheen and I am a final year engineering student at the University of Waterloo. I like to make videos about university/college, engineering, and personal development. Thank you so much for watching!!
I think the most beautiful thing about engineering is that no matter what program you end up choosing, you will always end up learning things from other specialties. As an electrical engineer who studied in Spain, I can say I have learnt a lot of stuff that were mentioned in this video about the mechanical, software, chemical and civil engineering which proves that you gain a lot of knowledge from a lot of different disciplines even if you think you are just focusing in one program
Would you say studying electrical engineering was worth it at the end of the day
@@rafiulazam5217 I'm still very young to answer that question (graduated last year), but I would say yes, it is worth it
@@unaidossantos7090
Entrar a electroca en españa es mas facil que en mi pais.
46 universidades con nota 5,000
Y nibguna sobre el 12. Facil entrar.
Yo estudio eléctrica en cardiff university UK.
@@Nn.65juk No entiendo la intencion de este mensaje una cosa no quita la otra lo facil que sea entrar en la carrera no quita que sea una carrera de gran dificultad y una de la que estar orgulloso.
It’s really great to have someone who post videos on what their viewers really want. Thanks bro. Be Safe!!
Appreciate that :)
This video has helped me narrow down the majors I want to consider when I go to college. I thank you for your hard work and dedication to this channel.
I love how concise yet informative all your videos are, man. Keep it up!
Thanks :)
I have been really enjoying your videos! I'm in the middle of my first year of astronautical engineering and your videos have been very encouraging and informative.
I cannot express my thanks enough! First time I've gotten straightforward information quickly! Thanks again :]
As a freshman in highschool who has always wanted to be an engineer for as long as I can remember, but doesnt know exactly what kind, this video felt like it took some sort of weight off my shoulders. I dont know how to explain it, but having a vague idea of my options has helped me lean towards more specific careers than simply an "engineer"
Awesome video! I like how you categorized these. I think one big difference within the categories is the starting salaries for the different types of engineering. Also if you specialize more you are more likely to be in a more specific type of job.
You are amazing. Keep doing what you're doing. It's is really useful and helpful!
Tis one of the most important youtube channels for me, learning a lot of stuff from ya every day.
Omg I love your content bro, you literally don’t sugarcoat anything!!
Bro your channel is so useful! I genuinely thank you
Omg this was really helpful for me! Thank you so much ❤ I always have said I want to be an engineer but now I actually know what parts of it interest me!
Great video man, i’m a computer engineer because I always marveled over electricity and the actual hardware that makes electronics work but I also love coding. Highly recommend this major. Along with aerospace, I’d say it’s the best major that is split among the big 5 bc you don’t spread yourself too thin
Yea, I honestly don’t think u can go wrong with any engineering program
Currently torn between computer and aerospace engineering. I love coding, but I also absolutely love mathematics.
@@musaratjahan7954 you will get to do plenty of coding and math in computer engineering, and can easily get a job in aerospace as an avionics, controls, or modeling/simulation engineer
This was a great video. Easy to understand and gives the viewer a simplified approach to engineering.
Thank you so much for this valuable information. I don't think anyone broke it down as well as you did. I'm glad I found your channel.
Happy it brought u value
Yeah he's is the most detailed 💯
This explained everything I wanted to know, thank you so much!!
Bro you are so awesome. Making me feel excited and comfortable
fast, accurate and straight to the point. bravo. subbed.👍
Appreciate that :)
Great information. This answered so many questions I had. Thank you.
I needed this video, THANK YOU Tamer ♥️🙏
Glad u liked it :)
as a mec e student (and youtuber :D) myself i gotta say u did a great job at summarizing the discipline, the quick one liners were actually very spot on!
A really excelent and comprehensive video, touching all the importanta points.
Well explained Brother. Appreciate you. Don't usually do comments but I think this time it was really necessary
Thank you so, so much. For all my life I've said I wanted to be a Mechanical Engineer, but I was honestly never really sure. After watching this, it's clear that Civil Engineering is the one for me. Thank you!!
Civil for the win!
Why are civil engineering students always so wholesome
Much love for your content bro. This video helped me so so much.😍
You're a life saver 😊😊... you've just given the right information I need..😊🙏
Thank you so much for this video!
You my friend are a huge help to me. I am interested in Mechanical engineering. I support your chanel! Thank you. Keep it up. 😃
Appreciate it and glad u like the content
BEST REVIEW! FULL DETAILS! 💯
this is the best explanation video i’ve seen so far. what do you know about fire protection engineers? could you make on that. feel like there isn’t much out there.
Awesome videos man. Thankyou so much
This is the most condense and informative video about all types of engineering I'ver ever watched.
That was the goal! I’m glad u liked it :)
omg i did civil engineering for a year and was either going to pursue it in uni or do architecture but they sent me to mechanical engineering so ive been really disappointed ngl but this video made me look @ it from a diff view and the opportunities seems amazing!! thank you sm gonna go through all your vids lol
How u like mechanical?
يعطيك العافية big respect
God bless you brother for this video 💕
I found you bro and gave you a subscription, this is Atul. Great editing and great content.
Eyy thanks Atul :)
Hey Tamer, I am a ChemE working at a FAANG company and majority of my colleagues have degrees in chemical engineering. We work specifically on manufacturing quantum computing semiconductors. These types of jobs can be found at IBM, Microsoft, Google and even Meta (with regards to their quest headsets). Anything that deals with the manufacturing of semiconductor process we can definitely work at. It surprised me as well actually because I didn’t know so many ChemEs could work in this one field lol.
hey, i'm starting a chem eng course in oct. Do you think is it worth it if i'm interested in waste management, water refinery process, clean energy and production in engineering like machine etc?
@gabrielgarcia7554
Very informative and relevant video, high schoolers should watch this!
Great content! Thank you
Thank you Tamer Shaheen for not wasting my precious time.
This help a lot, thanks!
This is what I want to do, *Financial Engineering.* In the sense, depending what you’re doing, Software, Computer, and System Design Engineering being used for the financial industry.
There’s a lot of variables to this, like I said like it’s not just as simple to explain as I’ve stated above. Another way to put it is applying the scientific method and science related things (econ, math, stats, cs, etc.) for the Financial Industry; you’ll mainly work with something in relation to stocks or stock trading.
Another definition of Financial Engineering is creating/utilizing financial tools, literally anything with money and how it’s used, to the technology of block-chaining and credit. Hence, creating them and knowing how to implement them.
Thank you, for good explanation
Very informative, thank you 👏
Great video!
You're so good looking, it just makes listening to your advice a real treat 😹😹
For EE you missed Device Physics/VLSI Design where you design rules and logic designs for the fabrication for integrated circuits.
Great help! Thanks.
This was very helpful thanks
Really enjoyed the video Tamer, Im looking into applying for an Engineering programs at Waterloo. Do u think u could do a video where u talked about ur experience during ur co-op terms and how the university helped u through you journey?
I have a video that sort of talks about that already titled “My Entire Engineering Student Life in 8 Minutes” but I can make more co-op focused videos too
When mechanical engineering is basically the next avatar mastering all four elements.
HAHA 😂
Wow … Thank you so much 😊
Very helpful ❤🎉
very informative!
Oh😮 mechatronics...now thats what im looking for
A few modifications I would suggest. Nuclear engineering is a category of its own. In electrical engineering you left out some key focus categories (semiconductor, digital design, power systems / transmission. Electromechanical). Systems Engineer isn't necessarily software based ; it's multidisciplinary and usually focuses around optimization and comprehensive problem solving (a mile wide and an inch deep). Lastly there are niche fields like test engineering. Quality engineering, metrology. Biomedical and others that deserve mention.
It's really not it's own thing anymore than aero or biomed. It largly draws on mixing some of the "big 5."
I do believe that almost every engineering is different if we consider the objective. But I guess the big 5 (maybe 4 because there would not be software without electricity) sums up the set of basic knowledge in each one. Also that he glossed over what electrical and software engineers design and Systems engineer is totally wrong (every complex multidisciplinary project could need a Systems engineer). Test and Quality are very linked to industrial engineering. Metrology is more linked to Instrumentation and Control engineering (I'm not sure if the States has a bachelor of that). But yeah, physics and nuclear engineering have very different objectives
You forgot about aerospace engineering , hope next time you could do video on it.
10:05 quick side note: industrial is essentially half a business degree. Process optimisation from a company’s perspective is primarily economic.
I would argue that Nuclear Engineering would be a unique enough category on its own.
Could be lumped in with electrical (power systems)
I have to agree with the comment above, its a mix of specialized chemical and specialized electrical (with a tiny bit of civil)
Thought I'd find my major, guess not lmfao. Still a nice, comprehensive video for people interested in engineering! So, any thoughts on Mining Engineering?
Mining engineering is def a very specialized type of engineering. You basically become an expert at extracting a specific type of material like gold from the earth. The job prospects aren’t as high as other engineering majors like software engineering. But...it’s still a great choice if that’s what you’re interested in.
"Yeah, im a pro, what gave it away?"
*Looks at fire thumbnail*
I took Mechatronic Engineering ( Automotive) and lets hope i will come back in 3 to 4 years here to update
Biomedical is actually a subset of Biological Engineering. Biological Engineeering is the fundamental major biomedical engineering is just application based.
Are you a Biological engineer, because I have a difficulty choosing bioE or Mechanical engineer
@@abdullahalharthi2429 Yes.
good stuff !
Thank you so much.
Great video! Thanks for all the info. I've seen in some universities that they offer "Architectural Engineering" where would this be classified?
Civil...
very useful!!!!!
I want to hug you some day 😩😩😩😩, you are a life saver
A bit late with this but congrats on graduating bro!
Thanks :)
Might change to electrical engineer just because its less impacted then mechanical, and we are always gonna need electronics
i love the movie after seeing my specification being explained.,...............biomedical engineering
Thank you
HI Tameer loved the content, i have few questions on my mind, is instrumentation and control engineering same as industrial engineering ? if yes, will I get a job in big companies like tesla, facebook, uber, apple,etc ?
its more part of electrical i think
In Electrical engineer we do also Thermodynamics
Thank You
I love your hoodie where’d ya get it from
Hi Tameer! I am 14 years old and I like math physics and programming. I wnat to be a robotics engineer in the future, and I want to be very succesful how much I can. How should I start, and what can you suggest me to learn and contribute since now?!
Electrical Engineering ❤
Great video.Do u have any option to change from one engineering branch to another at Waterloo?
Yea u do. However, ur grades need to be relatively high so you can make that change.
@@TamerShaheen thanks a ton
mechanical (design & build; statics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, thermal)
electrical (navigation systems etc)
civil (roads, heavy structures how environment impacts them etc)
*mechatronic* (mechanical, electrical, software)
biomedical (helps physically disabled)
system design ((mechanical), electrical, software)
Hi tamer! I just wanna ask should I go into computer science or any sort of engineering (meche or aero or compe).. which do you recommend because i find all of those very cool but idk what i should study for?
I have another video called “Computer Science be Computer Eng vs Software Eng” that should answer ur question...but realize that it all comes down to what u enjoy
can you make a video about systems deisgn engineering?
Hi Tamer! I really like today's video. I have a video suggestion for your future videos: I think should do a question of a day. Question of the day is where you ask a question to your viewers and they can answer it if they want to. Also, if you think they wrote something funny when answering the question of the day, then you can give them a shoutout.
Oh that’s a nice idea, I’ll implement that in a future video
Ive in a between where I wanna do coding but also work with hand aswell but it seems like im stuck with electrical and software.
would you say that being really good at mathematics is a very important skill for eng?
If you could do it all over again, would you choose to do another engineering program? Would you have chosen another school instead of Waterloo? Why or why not?
If I were to do it again, I’d still choose Waterloo since their coop program is so helpful. But, I’d probably pick Systems Design Engineering because I like that it teaches very practical knowledge related to all aspects of engineering like mech, electrical and software.
@@TamerShaheen Can u differentiate between Systems design engineering and mechatronics in a new vid.. Thanks a lot for all your videos man..
Nice vedio, I really liked the editing and words animation
By the way I'm studying Electrical Engineering
Thanks and that’s dope!
Thanks a lot for the video but there was a question that wasn't answered. Is electrical and electronics engineering the same?
Yes,bro im 1 st year in Electrical & Electronic engineering..
What you should ask yourself before going into a college major is actually not what you WANT, but what society NEEDS. Our college & job system is extremely inefficient right now, it needs to be reformed for our new era of technology. We shouldn't keep pumping people into oversaturated & stagnant careers where they just copy/paste old blueprints of old technology. WE NEED NEW TECHNOLOGIES. The next big technologies that will most likely come out are; AIs, robots, & biotech (bionics, synthetics, genetics, better pharmaceuticals, & better bio scanning machines). As you can probably guess, these technologies will cause large changes to our society. Therefore, what we really need are actually smart, forward thinking politicians who aren't held back by religion, tradition, etc. to make smart & informed decisions when it comes to our new revolutionary AIs & biotech as well as cybersecurity. The decisions mainly come down to societal optimization measures, AI control laws (such as; requiring all robots to have tracking mechanisms, making it legal for AI & robot production companies to initiate a full recall if necessary, making it illegal for AIs & robots to form their own society), & more funding to government cybersecurity agencies.
So, overall, we need political reform first, however, if you don't want to go into politics, then I would suggest the following fields because of the reasons I listed above;
-pharmaceutical science
-pharmacology
-microbiology
-tissue engineering
-genetic engineering
-bioengineering (aka biomedical engineering)
-software engineering (or whichever field is specific to AIs (it might be called AI specialism, machine learning engineering, or data engineering))
-computer & network security professionals
As a final note, I just want to mention that pharmaceutical scientists & pharmacologists are the ones who make & test drugs. It seems like it should be called pharmaceutical engineering, but that's actually a different field that involves making the machines required to make drugs.
As a freshman in business do u think its even possible to change route ?
Tron is definitely the best major though.
I'm studying mechatronics engineering
You look stressed or off, is everything alright but the video was very helpful, Thanks
Life has just been hectic recently, but I’m holding up 😅 I’m glad u liked the video tho :)
Is there anyway you can talk about Nanotechnology engineering? much appreciated
Yea I’ll talk about it in a future video
What app did you used to organize yourself for your exams?
Just made notes on paper by hand and used google calendar to keep track of deadlines
Nice
I decide study in Mechatronics, what is yout opinion
What's the difference between electrical engineering and electrical electronic engineering
What would be best for designing hardware set ups for Tech companies like tesla or apple?
What do you mean when you say hardware setups? You mean the actual hardware in their products or the way they are manufactured?
