Higher education thread
What are you studying?
Why?
Which year?
How is the course treating you?
>Chemical engineering
>Partly because science is cool, mostly for the paycheck
>Second year
>Pretty difficult, but manageable at this stage. Though I've heard the jump to third year is insane
Computer Engineering
Want to learn programming. And make my own projects.
Year 1
Course is shit. I expected to learn like 5 languages. Only learning JAVA, network, electronics and maths
Wanted to do game development. Didn't get the course. Not enough points.
Archeology
Y1 masters
Working in the field already
>PhD in Atomic Physics.
>Because it's interesting.
>Two years in.
>Published my first paper earlier this year. Felt good.
>biochemistry
>love chemistry, like biology so why not not both
>fourth year, hopefully going to grad school after
>the classes that pertain to my major are great. The other gen ed classes are stupid and annoying
>political science
>senior so needless to say I'm at the most challenging part of my undergraduate academic career
>my main goal is to campaign for a libertarian socialist once I graduate and defeat Trump
>down with fascism
>antifa is here to stay
I majored in chem and biochem before chemE, but that was 3 years. Are science courses usually 4 years at your institution?
Good on you user, not enough physics majors these days. What was your paper on?
I work with Rydberg atoms and the Stark effect.
Yea, I'll have a bachelor's degree after my four years and then grad school should see me getting a phd after 5-6 more years. The university I'm at now doesn't offer an advanced degree in biochem so I'll have to put out applications for places that do.
alotta scientists here
>Computer Engineering
>I fucked around with computers my entire life and money
>Second year
>Course is decent.
Learn them yourself retard
What are you planning on working on for your PhD?
>Computer engineering
So hardware based? Why not comp sci? Seems easier with similar pay
your mom's face. oh wait. that was my semen.
Right now I'm thinking enzymology butI'm open to anything.
>Communication & Information Engineering
>Shit seemed lit, nothing seemed really appealing to me
>1
>boring. nothing more to say tbh
Since I'm just a beginner
What is the best source to start off.
Python if you're lazy, C++ if you aren't
CompE is EE mixed with Comp Sci. It's more interesting
>audio engineering / music production
>audio is really cool to me, both plain music and the electronics and physics related to it
>third year
>so far i love it, pretty easy
my only worry is finding a job after school, but i figure i can either go into live sound as a backup, or do sound for virtual reality production.
You can learn languages easily. There's codecademy or youtube for that matter. When you master one, it becomes easier to learn more languages. Universities only teach you one because they take a few semesters to teach either java or c++. Take up one or more over the summer.
>Computer science
>Third year
>Drowning in workload, if you struggle with the course in first or second year just quit. You have no chance.
Computer Science, BSc - almost finished, writing my bachelors thesis - feels good man. looking forward to really nice salary, automotive rules
What is your workload like? How much time do you spend per week on it?
Don't the compE guys mostly work with fundamentals?
Cse (computer science and engineering) 3rd year out of 5. (the degree has a master in cs included, so when I finish school I will have it for free basically )
Its a lucrative degree. I could get any CS job I want or work in hardware
Private or state uni? My uni is state and I have to take 2 extra classes to minor in cs
>bachelors
>thesis
This seems strange
Horticulture with an emphasis in science.
In my country all unis are public
Im doing an open university degree. astrophysics
I am studying pure mathematics, first year. Anyone also maths?
Cs
I will graduate in 1 year. I gotta be honest the workload was demanding but it was only so because they ask you to do large retarded Java projects, but im graduating junnior year. My plan is to get a job asap while learning more on my own.
A lot of math in my course.. Actually enjoying it.. Its cool to see where it applies in the real world.
Do you believe philosophy is pure math?
I know, right? I really enjoy it, best desicion in my life. What do you like the most?
>Architecture
>i've always loved drawing and construction, plus you can do pretty cool stuff with it
>first year
>love it so far
Mathematics is kinda philosophy, it is just written better and can be justified (proved)
Use solid works?
sometimes for specific homeworks but the core is autoCAD
Art
Didn't see myself in any other path
4
I'm self-taught so pretty good. Started getting jobs and making some money a month ago.
>industrial engineering
>love to analyse things, can do math & science but not in love with it, pretty good at verbal skills but my country(turkey) if u want to get some money, u have to be either be a thief or getting education about math/science stuff, we got it
>second year
>its pretty hard right not, with all those cases and fuckers in everyclass who trying to gangbang everyone
any other ie student?
