it is a good profession. since Industrial engineers find creative new ways to solve tough problems. From microelectronics, telecommunications, and retail to transportation, hospitals, and government, IE's make it happen more efficiently.\n\nIndustrial engineers get jobs as production engineers, supply chain managers, operations analysts, quality engineers and information system specialists. They work for any business, company, governmental agency, or service oriented enterprise that wants improved operations and reduced costs.\n\nMany IE's start their own companies or go into consulting. \n\nIndustrial engineering is challenging, rewarding, and full of opportunity. There's no limit to the places you can go with a degree in industrial engineering.

Engineering is a hot feild now... and the biomed is pretty good.  Not my thing, but could be fun.

engineering is hard work.  I am studying it right now.  I think it is not for me, but i'm gona finish my degree, because i've already been in school for 3 years and only really started having fun when i started reading lit.,  I think engineers create constant stress for themselves and feel the need to always work harder.  \n\nOf course you can be a pilot, but i suggest you find out if it is really for you, first. take some lessons on the side.  Watch some movies.  It is probably hard to make this kind of decision with the kind of stress you are under, so take you time and think about it.\n\nYou will be probably thinking a lot less, being a pilot.  It is like transitioning from being the principle to a Janitor, relativly speeking.  Not that being a pilot is a bad thing, but you will have a lot less responsibility in terms of decisions.  The only time you would have to make quick decitions is if the plane wasn't working and you need to save the people, but that probably won't happen and you probably won't be able to help them anyway.\n\nSo i can't really make the decision for you, but i know i'm getting out of engineering, before the plane goes down.

Well interesting q.... i was faced with a similar predicament a year back... IIT kanpur one of the best engineering schools but its mettalurgy and IT-BHU not as good but still good and its Computer Science......\nLook at it this way you will spend next 4 years and probably your entire life stuck with what desicion you make now.\nYou have to understand that metallurgy is dry, dry and very dry. Only if you get 10.0 in the first sem or year can you change majors. Im not saying it cannot be done, my friend got 10.0 in IIT-Bombay in Comp Engr.\nSo consider if you want to be stuck with mettalurgy with the rest of your life, with comp sci its pretty wide open topic with an amazing markle and its a huge industry. But metallurgy is pretty narrow and a market with a lot of research involved. \nYou have to think of the future, job availability, scope of the topic, etc.\nI would take Comp Sci IT-BHU but if you are interested in the IIT name which i know is very tempting, i say go for it. But if you decide to go for IIT work hard to make sure you can change majors if possible.

I'm in Electrical, and the joke around Eng is "if you wanted to get rich you should be in business, not engineering.\n\nBut you know, if you think about it, in engineering school the  brains and technical creativity is astounding. If  someone could harness all of this potential, they would indeed be a wealthy individual.\n\nAs it is though, just getting an 'ordinary' engineering job will leave you living comfortably. It is a profession afte all.\n\nGood luck.

Keep in mind I'm in chemical engineering, and this is just my opinion.  Compared to the more common engineering fields of study (mechanical, electrical, material, chemical, industrial), textile engineering gives you a more narrow focus.  Therefore, you'll have less flexibility when looking for jobs/further education.  However, you'll be a scarce commodity which makes you more attractive for the companies that need textile engineers.

Industrial Design.  I have a family member who majored in that and one of the school projects was to design new and innovative shoes.  You need somewhat of an artistic and technical type background.  Good luck.

Industrial engineers are often concerned with the design and layout of an industrial plant including the flow of material and products and the efficient use of labor including the availability of suitable machinery and materials.  See the link for a (typical?) curriculum.

Mechanical engineering is very wide field. \nJust to give you an Idea;-\n\nDesign a product say  hair pin. Mech engineer makes a drawin g  showing how it will look in three dimension. determine if it will function as intended,  send it into manufacturing  area where if there is any problem, then redesign so manufacring problem can be solved. he also deals materials, to determine if the material use will stand up in the  real life. Also he thinks of cost aspect to make it affordabls, and designs accordingly.\n\nDesigning a system. Let us say  AC system. Mech engr has to know what machine,how big or small, with what capacity,and feature will be required. Then me makes a layout to determine the proper arrangement of machine, ducts, outlets, etc and work with electrical engineer to make sure  that system will without  problems.\n\nThis very small part of engineering.You need to make calculations  to determine requirements.

University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign is a fantastic engineering school in the US.  I go there for graphic design but over half of my friends are engineering students.  Its a large and diverse campus that can seem intimidating but once you find your niche (and it isnt hard to find it) you'll find the campus is very welcoming and entertaining.  It will give you, not only a good education, but also the "college experience" that so many students dream of.  \n\ngood luck on deciding a school.  in the end, the best advice i can give you is to find a campus that you love and that you'll be comfortable in.

mechanical engineering \nmore specifically mechatronics\nit is a combination of mechanical engineering and electronics.\nfor the designing part special short courses has to be taken but it would be easy to take after mechanical engg.

Industrial Engineering is closely related to mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering.  Actually all engineers must study at least the fundamentals of all engineering fields in order to cooperate with other specialized engineers.  The Industrial Engineer specializes in setting up and efficiently running industrial plants that may include electrical, mechanical and chemical components and other.  One specialty of the Industrial Engineer is to study time management which includes the organization and flow of materials and products through the plant and the efficiency of workers who may need more or better tools to avoid rejects.

Of course (but perhaps I am biased :-)  ).  Mechanical Engineers are involved in practically every industry.  I feel that is practically the most versatile engineering degree.  Pretty much every product has been touched by a mechanical engineer, but you can't really say that about other types of engineering.  ME's work with electronics, aerospace, chemical-related companies, food companies, HVAC, structures, materials, cars/transportation, manufacturing & production, biomedical companies, and the list goes on and on...  \n\nAero/Astro engineers... aero/astro companies\nElectrical engineers... electronics\nCivil engineers... buildings/bridges/structures, etc.\nChemical engineers... pharmaceutical, foods, chemicals...\nMaterials science engineers... materials.\n...Just to list a few other fields.\n\nLike I said before, I am a recent ME grad, so of course I am biased towards my own degree.  But ANY engineering is a great field to get into in general.  I have always felt that there seem to be a lot more opportunities for ME's than a lot of other engineering majors, however.  We can work with practically every industry, and there will never be a lack of jobs in this field, because practically everything requires it.
