  • Being a computer engineering student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is tough. I filmed this Day of the Life Video in February, but only got the time to edit it now...I hope you enjoy it! The main purpose of this video was to be as realistic as possible. Of course, most of the day is filled with lectures, homework, and projects, but there are a lot of fun moments you get to share with others as well. I'm trying my best to live in the moment and appreciate how much God has given me.
    This video was heavily inspired by @ELLIOTCHOY in his Vanderbilt Day of the Life video. Hopefully someday I can achieve his editing quality but...that's still in the works ;)
    Please consider subscribing if you enjoyed the video, I'll do my best to get more content out soon!

    this is a great insight video, there isnt a whole lot of computer engineering videos online, looks really nice to have several lectures a day. I get one a day if im lucky, is really annoying.

    Keep it up dude. Also what are your laptop specs? I am going into EE as a freshman next year and am wondering if I should buy a gaming laptop so I can game on the side as well

    • @stevemat1105
      @stevemat1105  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Thanks for the support man! I have an ASUS Vivobook OLED (M7600), Ryzen 7, RTX 3050 Ti, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD. It’s a great laptop the one main bottleneck is the RAM as it’s soldered on and not upgradable. If you do want to game on the side I would def recommend getting a gaming laptop as most laptops aren’t built to support heavy gaming.

    so i’m doing comp engineering this upcoming fall, can you give a brief but honest overview on the difficulty of the material? seeing all your assignments really intimidates me, but i know that’s bc i know nothing about it yet lol. idk, like, if you put the work and studying in, is it doable? i don’t wanna be super stressed and feel like i’m not smart enough

    • @AmmoBops

      I’m gonna be a College senior this Fall 2024 and im studying computer engineering full time along with a part time job. I would say that making friends and going to tutoring is gonna be your best bet. You will struggle and there will be times where you are lost, but that’s when you contact your professor, friends, the internet, and learn how to help yourself.
      You also will need to have discipline to complete your assignments. There are times when you’ll want to procrastinate and that’s completely normal, but it only makes it harder in the long run. I recommend starting assignments as soon as you get them, even if you don’t finish, this gives you more time to digest and think about what you need to do to get good grades. Also this guys schedule was super hectic and intimidating but keep in mind that you will decide your classes and schedule. You can make it max hard like this guy and throw 4-5 classes in one day or do 2 classes a day etc..
      also he had a few extra curriculars but if you’re not the type, then you can definitely use that free time to help get assignments done.
      Keep in mind that college is gonna be a challenge for someone who is pursuing STEM and engineering but it’s not impossible and I know many non bright people who have been through the process, myself included. A’s are not everything, sometimes you have to learn that C’s get degrees and move on. Passing is what matters and at the end of the day being able to say “I’m a computer engineer” will take all the pain away 🤘🏽

    • @stevemat1105
      @stevemat1105  16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’ll probably discuss this in a future video, but as the guy said above, one of the hardest things about being a computer engineer is realizing that you won’t always be able to achieve perfect scores. The workload is extremely tough and the course subjects are hard. To be honest, my grades have not been good bro 😂 What really matters though is getting the connections in order to get an internship and really pushing to graduate with the CE degree. It can be overwhelming at times but don’t compare yourself to others (way easier said than done), instead build connections and form work groups with fellow students. At the end of the day, everyone is struggling through it together. Also, I recommend you watch the last minute of the video. This is my hardest day of the week, not every day is like this! Prioritize your work but also don’t forget to hang out with the amazing friends you’ll meet in college.

    • @stevemat1105
      @stevemat1105  2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah same here - in the U.S. the math concepts from Calculus II are taught in AP Calculus BC in high school. The Physics materials covered are taught in the AP Physics I course I took in 11th grade. The only reason why I am taking it in college is because I wasn’t able to get a good enough score on the AP exams to get credit. I’m fairly sure you need a 5 on both of them to get any sort of credit in college.

    • @stevemat1105
      @stevemat1105  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      For engineering, ISR would be the best dorm location-wise if you're an EE. However, if you can bring a bike, you have a lot more access to the other dorms as you won't have to travel as far. We are currently staying at Newman Hall which is near the center of campus and is a prime location for business majors.

      Every school weighs GPA differently so it depends, this is something you would need to check with UIUC.
