I’m the HS comparison as well as we was wondering about engineering. Do we have to be great during physics? I’m improved during the Calculus partial though not unequivocally physics. What do we have to be great during in sequence to be an operative as well as where do we work? At the plant?

you must be very mathematically inclined and have good spatial perception
I am studying engineering and already working at honda of Canada Mfg. yes it is a lot of fun and it is a wise option unless you want to become a lawyer or a doctor
Math is very important, much more then physics for most engineers, but that depends on what type of an engineer you want to me.
Most important though, I think, is your problem solving skills. If you enjoy problem solving and figuring out how to fix things or how to build them, that is very important.
if you are happy building, designing, prototyping, fixing, and maintaining machines, then you might enjoy being an engineer
math is important because it gives you the tools to quantify the machine performance or machine design. math is important for modeling, and for assuring margins in the design are adequate to meet performance criteria before prototyping or after testing
There are many types of Engineering and each requires it’s own specific sort of skills but one commonality is a competency in math. Engineers work in a very wide variety of places from mills to plants to municipal offices to consulting firms. You could be a Civil, Structural, Mechanical, Municipal, Nautical or Aeronautical Engineer. For instance, a structural engineer designs buildings/bridges/etc. for structural stability or inspects existing structures for soundness. He/she can work for others or can work for themselves.
I would recommend it if you enjoy challenging work where you are always learning while at the same time solving problems.
I was not very good at courses that involved physics, chemistry or electricity. Had a hard time visualizing concepts that these courses presented. Classes such as calculus, statics, and structural analysis were more what I found much easier to understand. Because I had a tougher time with pysics, chemistry and electricity I did not go into chemical, electrical or mechanical engineering (still had to work hard through some of the pysics, chemistry and electrical classes that were required). I ended up getting a degree in civil engineering and am now a structural engineer invoved in designing buildings such as airplane hangers, indoor sports facility’s, churches, schools, warehouses, manufacturing facilities and offices. I work in an office. We have a manufacturing plant next to us that fabricates the steel members that are required for the building. This allows us to be able to see the fabrication of the steel beams and columns that we design.
