Thanks for sharing! I've been following you since your MIT days, and I thought diving into hardware and embedded systems would be awesome. So, I pursued Mechatronics Engineering, thinking it would give me a taste of everything. But, as you mentioned, I ended up facing the challenge of not being fully competent in any major path with having to deal with hardware supply shortages. It wasn't until after graduating last year that I realized my true focus was always on Software Engineering, even during my mechatronics degree and now pursuing software engineering wholeheartedly.
nice to hear the other way around , I m a computer science engineer and after being so tired of writing code I m trying to transition into aerospace engineering have been following you since your channel started .
@@KJHardrict i have been working at CERN for quite a while now and was doing a lot of numerical simulation . Cern also tends to have a anti matter detector on space station which I have partially worked on. A lot of technology and tools that we use here for research were only possible because of space sciences and hence my motivation started to leave my comfort office and start my masters in space engineering
I just graduated with my B.S. in Biochemistry (also minored in CS). For my CS minor I had to take digital systems and architecture as well as computer organization with Assembly. Those two classes were my favorite I ever took in college. This made me realize that I’m really into hardware so now I’m heavily considering getting a second bachelor’s in Electrical engineering.
Hey KJ...I had a doubt regarding a course...I just graduated my high school in INdia and am planning to do btech In ICT from one of the top colleges of India...ICT course is a mixture of ECE and comp science,Will I face any difficulty In applying for my masters in comp science in US...btw love your content
I highly doubt after the completion of either of those Indian programs you will have issue getting into a US masters program. Your Indian programs will probably be as rigorous as most US masters programs.
@@maandesai52 I can't speak for all degrees/universities but I have personally worked with multiple people from india who have there BTech from home in India and also gotten into/completed Masters Computer Science programs in the USA. So I would assume it would be similar for you to apply since your degree will be, technical and relevant to a Masters in Computer Science.
@@maandesai52 Also I was able to get into a Masters Comp Science program with only a BCIS (Business communication information systems) degree, which isn't even in the engineering school.
Couldn't you have combined SW Engineering and Aerospace Engineering? For example as a Simulation Dev, Onboard systems Dev, etc? Or even jobs in these fields which seems that an AEng+SWeng could have advantage (knowledge in FEM, CDF, Airspace Management, all the plane systems, etc), realistically just a SWeng would be at the same level?
@@KJHardrict :) Why not? You're trained in aerospace engineering, you're a software engineer, so, while I dunno if you are about grad school, or if you wanted something to do, I dunno, inventing a low or mid-level hardware language that could be used to interface new types of computers with aircraft or spacecraft would be cool. I dunno, you're not convincing me that you're not bored. Hope you are inspired to stay hands on with your work, something super challenging...quantum computers are going to need new hardware languages so they can interface with technology, you know?
I'm a software engineer and I doubt my career choice now. Not sure if its a good career move. If money is not the factor nobody would look at CS just like Aero Space Engineering.

Well best of luck to you in your journey!

What intrigues you about aerospace?

@ankurgiri7589 that’s great! I wish you the best in your endeavors
@KJHardrict tysm keep making these awesome videos😌🌻

Great video as always KJ, keep it up
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Literally same story as me. Studied aerospace engineering then i switched to Devops & Cloud Engineering

@@codejunki567 will I face any problem to get into masters in cse in us...My degree is not fully CSE it is a mixture of cse and electrical engineering

@codejunki567 ok...thanks for helping ❤

*fairy lady swirls down*
Have you ever considered writing your own hardware-level coding language?
Honestly, I have not. Maybe in the future? 🤔
