Deepak’s Answer

For me engineering has been a field of innovation. All engineers have their Eureka moment, trust me it has happened to every one of us in a small or big way and those small wins bring a ton of joy and satisfaction. Given that I am from the field of software engineering, I can provide some insights into it. On a day to day basis it does come down to be in front of computers for hour together though we had adapted over time to not work in silos and it has become more of team activity ranging from idea vetting to innovation, project , productization and then eagerly waiting to get customer experience feedback. Though a lot of time it comes down to the individual on what kind of impact he/she wants to make with a team or organization. In today's work envinronment every company provides unlimited learning and training resources to its employees and there is no shortage of problem to be solved within the engineering paradigm. There is always a complex engineering problem which can be solved differently and the ones disrupting the status quo and getting customers on their side are the ones you might want to look out for. Or if you see an engineering problem and want to solve it, you should start on it, you might be on to something and might become your first invention. Good luck.

Leo’s Answer

Studying Engineering was one of the best decisions I made with my life. Engineers use science to solve practical problems. Think about it, that means that Engineers actually can have an impact in society and benefit people through their actions. For instance, think about global warming. How are we going to solve that? Can we find a practical replacement for oil that won't cause pollution and won't impact the world's economy? Can we invent something that will capture the CO2 that is already out there? Whatever we end up doing, we'll need Science and Engineering, and if you become an Engineer you can also be an active part of the solution.

Also, on a more practical level you'll be exposed to a lot of Math. This is true no matter what field of Engineering you end up studying because Math is the Language of Science and we need Science to understand how things work. In other words, Engineering is probably not easy; but it's worth it.

Kevin’s Answer

Engineering is a very math-intensive field of study and vocation. For most aspects of engineering, you spend a lot of time at a desk in front of a computer doing analysis. You do not do as much team-type projects.


There is a demand for engineers in the world, more than many other vocations, but it does take a lot of study.
