Does anybody know any classes that I should take in college that would be good for this career choice? I've already been told that Mechanical Engineering would be good, but I would like to know other classes. If possible, could you also give suggestions for colleges/universities that I could attend? I'm currently looking at CalTech and MIT.

Answer: Classes in math, physics, engineering, chemistry, electronics, CAD, computers, aerospace, fluid dynamics, metallurgy, mechanics, etc. Stanford is another good choice as are all the military academies.

Question: Which is better, a Masters in manufacturing operations or engineering management? I live in metro Detroit and have been employed by GM for the past 5 years at a manufacturing plant where I was a maintenance supervisor until I was recently fired as part of the new GM. Now I am going back to school at Kettering University and I need to deceide between these two Masters which is better. My undergrad was in electrical engineering.

Answer: Both are good for you if you are stick at manufacturing line. However, I will prefer engineering management. The reason is management skill is more important that the manufacturing operations since you already works for many years in manaufacturing.

Question: Do I have a shot at UCLA? Please help!? I'm curious about my chances at getting into UCLA. What do you guys think? I am a pretty good student. Solid GPA and ECs. Here's my stats. I am a a senior in High School. Applied to these colleges. My GPA as of now is a 3.71 Unweighted and a 4.0-4.2 UC GPA I have 2 Cs. One in AP Bio (A the second semester) and one in AP Spanish Language (B the second semester + passed the AP Exam with a 5) My senior-year classes are AP Physics B, AP English Literature, AP Calculus BC, and Gov. I took Statistics, Drawing and an introductory Engineering course at my local community college. My SAT scores are as follows: Test #1: 590 on Critical Reading 600 on Math 600 on Writing (8 on the essay) Test #2: 600 Critical Reading 540 Math 660 Writing SAT Subjects 600 Math 2 520 Biology M (They messed up my score. The score report says I took E *sighs* oh well) My extracurriculars are pretty good I guess. Here they are: I am in the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Pre-College Pipeline program at UCLA.http://www.hhmi.org/grants/query/index.php Basically, I research with a top professor/researcher at UCLA on a certain subject. Mine is on cell signaling and stem cell research. By the way, I work in Dr. Wong's lab at the UCLA school of dentistry. http://www.dentistry.ucla.edu/faculty/wong/ We have to come up with a large research presentation and well, present it at the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Pacific Division to at Ashland, Oregon. It is a 6 week residential program. I live/eat/etc at the dorms. I am also in the Junior Engineering Technical Society at my school. I take Engineering classes from the California State University, Northridge (ACCESS program)http://www.csun.edu/pubrels/press_releases/fall07/engineeringaccess.html It's mostly Manufacturing and Materials Engineering. Physics is involved. I voluntarily deliver food to various homeless people many times throughout the year. Also, gather clothes from family members and others and donate them to institutions that serve the needy various times in the year. I'm not sure how this would fare out on the application (credibility and such). I am a tutor and mentor to autistic brother24/7. It's a very hard job that takes away lots of time from my studies. I do it though to help my family since it would be very hard to burden my parents with caring for my brother since they both work. I explicitly described this situation on my personal statement and what I learned from my brother and how I want to be a Genetic Engineer to take part in the battle against genetic maladies, etc etc etc. Go to college, help my community, etc etc. I am a member of the Calculus club in my school. I am in the UCLA EAOP (Early Academic Outreach Program) and participated in their summer academies. http://www.eaop.org/ I am very knowldegeable in modern laboratory techniques and am trained and qualified to work in BSL level 1-2 labs. I also wrote a "killer" (according to my AP English teacher) admissions essay so you may want to take a look at that (ask me). Tell me what you think.

Answer: I think soo. You would have to check that yourself on their website. Im going into a pre college enrischment course during the summer there. :) Maybe I'll see you Good luck :)

Question: Could somebody please grade my paper? Cars of the 1930s The Automobile Industry resisted the depression and welcomed a new look for cars throughout the 1930s. The stock-market crash lead into the Great Depression, nonetheless the farming and middle-class families did not entirely give up on cars. Throughout history cars have been the nation’s symbol of security, comfort, and leisure. The “drop-frame� construction lowered the car’s center of gravity. The Ford 1932 V-8 significantly introduced the “drop-frame� appearance. Ford’s 1932 V-8 design brought the car’s height down from the high perch of early automobiles. It’s engine was moved over the front axels and the hood was expanded outward. Its sixty-five-horse power capacity gave the car strength. Many people including Clyde barrow favored this car, he said, “I have drove fords exclusively when I could get away with one. For sustained speed and freedom from trouble, the ford has got every other car skinned. Even if my business hasn’t been strictly legal it don’t hurt anything to tell you what a fine car you got in the V-8� He and Bonnie Parker had stolen a 1932 V-8 in Texas. The 1934 Chrysler and Desoto Airflow models cut the edge of engineering and aesthetic auto production. The first car to feature a unified body and chassis was the airflow. The car had sturdiness on the road and a roomier interior. Despite the public found it unattractive, Chrysler structured the advances learned from the airflow into its line of mid-priced sedans. Due to the great depression, the production of all vehicles fell 36 percent in 1930. It then fell 29 more percent in 1931. In 1932, it fell to about 1,300,000 vehicles, the lowest ever since World War one. GM’s Alfred P. Sloan had a strategy called “constant upgrading of product� or planned obsolescence, which meant encouraging consumers to trade up and blanketing the market with a car at the top of every price range. Later “constant upgrading of product� was called sloanism and moved GM to the top. Sloanism emphasized trade-ins and styling. The styling department at GM made cars appear lower and longer. The 1932 Cadillac was the first car to eliminate the separate box-like trunk. By the end of the 1930s US Auto manufactures had established a unified structure, lower, wider passenger compartments that went throughout and up to the 1950s. Aerodynamic styling, or streamlining, meant modeling their new cars on the design principles of high-speed trains and airplanes. This resulted in better speed and fuel economy, made the ride smoother, lessened wind noise and car’s drag. The once-separate body and chassis merged into a unified body. Independent automakers failed throughout the depression years due to the low sales. Car companies that ceased to build were Kissel, Ruxton, Mood, Dobel, Jordan, Stearns, Gardener, Marmon, Peerless, Du Pont, and more. Not all went down; five companies survived Charles Nash, Hudson, Packard, Studebaker, and Willy-Overland. The number of U.S. Automakers dropped drastically from 108 in 1923 to 44 by 1927. The big three were Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler. Large Automakers lowered their prices on their cars to stay in business. In 1930, it was recorded that sales in the auto industry had dropped 2 million from 5 million, just in the previous year. The depression affected the countries entire economy. The big three got a bigger share of the market from the fall of the independent automobile companies. Their share increased from 75 to 90, over the time period since the 1920s. Due to the plant closings, jobless workers, and low production the United Automobile Workers (UAW) Union was founded in Detroit, in 1935. The depression led many workers to strike and believe unionization was the only way to protect themselves from corruption of the companies. In 1935, congress passed the National labor Relations Act (NLRA), which outlawed the heavy-handed measures the companies had been using to break up unions. General Motors spent close to one million from 1934 up to 1936, the reason was for guards to patrol its plants. On May 26th, 1937, UAW leader attempted to hand out flyers at the main gate. They were stopped and trapped, who were beaten along with women, reporters, and photographers. The event became known as “Battle of the overpass.� To close down many plants, the UAW used the sit-down strike. This in effect did stop labor. By 1937, the UAW succeeded against GM and Chrysler. Ford continued to stop unionization. Ford Workers walked out on April 1st of 1941 causing the River Rouge Plant to close. In 1936, strikes by workers led to improved working conditions and wages.

I also wrote a "killer" (according to my AP English teacher) admissions essay so you may want to take a look at that (ask me). Tell me what you think.

Answer: First off, erase the whole concept of "odds of getting in" from your brain. Are you doing your best? Sure looks like it. Have you made a few mistakes? I hope so - you're a human; that's your job. No one who will answer your post has any way of knowing your chances of getting in, because they're not the ones who make the decisions. If they required a cutoff GPA, certain SAT, etc. - believe me, the admissions officers would make that very clear and tell anyone who didn't fit that mold not to bother. It would save them literally thousands of hours. But that's just not how it works. Admissions is something of a crapshoot - just like there are plenty of kids with perfect grades and scores who don't get in, there are plenty who didn't do as well as they might have hoped and yet get in anyway. They look at the totality of the situation, and while you may not be thrilled with your SAT scores, (which, I want to point out, were more than good enough for the vast majority of US colleges) I am absolutely sure that it won't keep you out of a great program. One look at your phenomenal involvement record - PLUS the fact that you care for your autistic brother - and no one in their right mind is going to whine that you got a 600 instead of a 700. Apply. The worst they can do is tell you no - but that should come from them, not you. Sure, if you try you may not succeed - but if you don't try, you DEFINITELY won't succeed - I like "maybe" better than "no" any day, don't you? Forgive the impending momming here, but: you're going to meet a lot of people over the course of your life who'll be more than eager to tell you all the reasons you'll fail at whatever thing - normally under the guise of "being realistic" - but you don't have the luxury of giving that negativity even an ounce of your precious energy. Nothing great was ever accomplished by settling for second best. I'm not saying you'll always get what you want - but successful people are the ones who aren't afraid to fail. If I had been "realistic" I would never have bothered to apply to UCLA because I'd think I wouldn't get in... and yet, I did. I went, I graduated, and it was a really great experience start to finish. The college admissions process is something of a shark tank - not at the admissions offices themselves, but privately, among applicants. It's absolute insanity - all that stress and anxiety comes to nothing. Who cares what this or that person did, scored, etc.? They're them; you're you. Your high school experience is about your circumstances, your effort, your interests. Your applications will reflect that. You've already done very well, so pat yourself on the back and take a minute to be proud of all your hard work. All you can ever ask of yourself is your best effort - and that does not mean you have to get perfect grades or perfect scores. Your record is fantastic, esp. considering you face challenges most kids don't. You can and will get into a great school. Good luck!

Question: Urgent need on Mainframe, including some projects details or briefing? Hello Everyone, My requirement is urgent and to some extent typical so I am trying to be explanatory (sorry for long para type question):- I've completed Mainframe training from a local institute. and have very good knowledge of all modules, separately: like COBOL, JCL, DB2, and VSAM. I do not know how to work in combined manner including : COBO, JCL, VSAM, DB2. My requirement is:- I've cleared telephonic and 1st technical interview in Accenture, now to attend PM round where I need to discuss project and other details. I've mentioned 1 Banking and 1production project in my resume that I've done in training but actually I haven't as institute was not so good. So someone from Mainframe industry can please help me by providing the details so I can start my wonderful career on mainframes. Please, I need it and I am dying interested in mainframes. I am a mainframe fan. I can't start as fresher as i graduated in 2003 :( Banking and Insurance:- What kind of projects we support. How the changes made by an Application engineer impact on Bank and when? What is use of mainframe in Banking, we support customer data in bulk but how it impact to customer and bank? What is exact use of COBOL, and JCL and can we work on VSAM and DB2 in same project? Why do we need to submit a JOB in JCL and how it impact to customer or Bank? Customer data is available in which format and how it is accessed. and finally The transactions made by customers and support done by application programmer, how they are related to each other? Almost same for the Manufacturing and production I tried to clear, sorry if I don't. Please people (experienced) help this poor Girl!!!

Answer: Cobol is used to develop applications. A given program will typically perform a single major task (while monolithic programs can be designed to perform an entire application, there are a myriad of reasons why that's a Bad Idea.) DB2 is a relational database management system frequently used in mainframe applications. VSAM is a method of defining and accessing data files. While not technically a DBMS, it is often used in defining parts of them (indexes, for example.) Programs can also access VSAM-maintained files directly. JCL is used to execute programs (both standard utility programs and customized ones developed in Cobol or other languages), specify related data files, route output files and reports, etc. Logical processing of subsequent steps of a job stream can also be specified, making alternative paths of processing possible by testing condition codes of individual steps and the like. The main reasons for running jobs via JCL is scheduling and process management. If you have specific questions, feel free to drop me a line.

Question: how much do we rely on chinese exports ? and how much does china rely on us to keep buying their stuff ? who can't live without the other and vice versa ? china has a strong manufacturing industry and engineering/construction industry too. recently they have developed the worlds fastest 'overground 'train system, a train that travels between two cities (which normaly took 9 hours by their standard train) at 246mph, in under 3 hours ! on top of this, china also has a strong agricultural industry ...but an intresting thing i read/found out about china is that, the population of over 60 year olds to young ppl is like , 60:40, and approaching 70:30 lol so there are plenty of old fogies out there. if we boycott chinese products would it hurt chinese economy ? if china stopped sending us their exports would we be focked ? i want to hear from markets/global finances/etc boffins on this. and the odd crazed man united fan. ^_^

Answer: The world is now so dependent on China as a manufacturing base it would be almost impossible to boycott them. They are very strong on manufacturing - but one big weakness is that they do not yet own the intellectual property behind most of the products they make. So they may churn out ipods, iphones and Macbook for example but Apple is the one who makes the most money, not the Chinese. Those trains you talk about have only been developed after technology transfer agreements between them and Japanese and German companies gave them the technology to be able to build them. Something that the Germans and Japanese will have made a lot of money out of. (China is spending more money on high speed rail than the rest of the world combined) As their economy develops they will become less dependent on exports, something which is already starting to happen now. Some multinationals have already shifted production of some types of products - e.g. textiles out of China to other countries where costs are now lower like Vietnam. They also have demographic time bomb, like a lot of western countries made worse because of the one child policy they have had since the 1970's.

Question: A case of legitimate self-defense? My uncle, a mild gentleman in his sixties, rides the city train to his cooking classes every day (an degreed but unemployed engineer - his employer of fifteen years went under and the job market for engineers is lousy right now, most manufacturing having gone away), where he is studying to be a chef, his boyhood dream. . He lives in our town with a large military base, and a large number of uniformed military personnel (I don't want to say what branch of the service) board the train when he is aboard, to ride to their nearby base. Most of them are pleasant to him. . Uncle likes to read as he makes the long ride the the school. A lifelong Catholic (as I am), he recently converted to Islam after studying the Koran for a couple years; although he remains kindly disposed to Chritianity, calling it "a great civilizing influence in history," even recently visiting the Vatican (on his way to - I am serious - Mecca!). . Anyway, while riding the train, he often removes from his totebag in which he carries his cooking utensils (knives, special forks, etc.) his paperback copy of the Quran, its cover decorated with the Arabic script along with the Romanized title. . A few days ago, a younger uniformed-type seated across from him saw the cover and said: "A__hole, I see you with that book again, I'll shove it up your a__!" Uncle then observed, from the goon's conversation with the other troops nearby, that he had recently returned from extended tours in Afghanistan and/or Iraq, and that he hated "g'dmd. Moslems." . Uncle is mild and nonconfrontational. But, I have given to him a handheld container of maximum-strength pepper spray (the red-label grade that the police carry), and I have loaned to him a voice-activated cassette recorder that I use in the college classes that I am taking. I have advised him that if the dimwitted, ferile thug assaults him, the he (Uncle) should give him a blast of gas in the face, and to keep spraying until it's empty, as the cop who gave it to me (an old girlfriend) said that a short squirt is often not enough. . And, that if after gassing the punk he still struggles and attempts to carry on the attack, that Uncle should then grab one of his paring knives from his bag (and to have one placed in the top of the bag, the knife's handle near the opening for quick access) and go for, literally, there punk''s eyes and/or throat. We even spent the weekend practicing such a routine, using an old punching bag from my college boxing days (with a face silkscreened on it at head-level!), and he became frighteningly adept and fast with a few hours' practice (he is an active physical fitness type), leaving the bag shredded. . My question: If he is attacked by the young thug, about a third of Uncle's age, and Uncle is forced to inflict hideous defensive results (blindness or 'worse'), could he be prosecuted, even if the whole thing is recorded on the voice recorder and with witnesses, and possibly even recorded by the train's onboard surveillance system (the car has several such placards warning that such a system is active, although I have always thought that it is a bluff)? He had said that to avoid trouble, he would simply not read his Quran on the train anymore, but I have convinced him to not surrender to such rightwing threats.

Answer: As soon as he becomes the aggressor, he is guilty of assault.

Question: Do you think Britain should be proud of all she has achieved? Considering its size and population the rainswept island of Britain has given the world proportionately more than any other nation on earth. Britain has given the world its number 1 international language.English is the native language for millions throughout the planet and the 2nd language for billions more. We invented Parliamentary Democracy and legal systems - since adopted by nations throughout the world. Isaac Newton and his theories on gravity,maths,astronomy, physics,laws of motion,optics & prisms are still used as the basis for all science worldwide. Charles Darwins' Theory of Evolution transformed human beings understanding of ourselves and our place in the natural world. More recently in the 1980s Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. ritain started the Industrial Revolution with all its world changing pioneering engineering,mechanical,manufacturing and scientific techniques - the world's first steam engine, first train etc..... The sports of cricket,rugby, and football (the worlds' favourite game) all came from Britain. More importantly,Britain gave the world punk rock,heavy metal, glam rock, psychadelia,the punk/ska two tone revolution and street styles and fashions-'tudors' (teddy boys), skinheads (the proper ones),mods,punks,goths,new romantics - most now found throughout the world. Britain has produced a mass of internationally renowned literature which has since passed into folklore.This includes Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein' which first introduced to the world the concept of the zombie.Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' was the world's first 'undead' vampire. British literature bequeathed the classics of Shakespeare,and Charles Dickens (A Christmas Carol/Scrooge,Oliver Twist,Great Expectations),works by Roald Dahl (Matilda,Charlie & The Chocolate Factory,The Witches) and HG Wells(The Time Machine,War Of The Worlds) Alice In Wonderland, Peter Pan,The Hobbit,Lord Of The Rings,Sherlock Holmes,Brave New World,Narnia,Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe,Golden Compass,Harry Potter and more. Many of these have since been made into films Since the days of Charlie Chaplin,Stan Laurel,Boris Karloff,Cary Grant and Hitchcock to Michael Caine,Sean Connery,Antony Hopkins to more recently Daniel Day Lewis,and Jude Law British actors and directors have played a pivotal role in both Hollywood and the UK film industry and 7 of the 10 most popular worldwide films of the past 5 years were based on British books including 'Narnia', 'Harry Potter','Charlie & The Chocolate Factory','Lord Of The Rings' and James Bond. And this is not even half of what Britain has done for the world and yet Americans like to take all the credit and make out like they invented the modern world! Nazi Germany wanted rid of anyone who was gay, jewish, dark haired and dark eyed. The British gave the world the above so I rest my case. I may not have personally had anything to do with this however I am proud of my nation knowing that almost evrerything the world does was probably British. I take it your German seeing as you agree with Nazi's???? lol The Big Dipper...Thanks for your opinion even if it s a foreign one. Freedom of speech yet another British tradition is a wonderful thing lol Ever heard of Aston Martins, Rolls-Royce, Bentley etc etc You must drive a peasant wagon in your country with chickens rinnung up and down lol sorry poor boy. Why is it when I try and make a comment on why I should be proud to be British I get comments like this and defensive ones at that. I asked British people not foreigners Ray whatever your name is my advise is to go back to school because my nation has been around much longer try thousands of years longer than yours and again I want Brits to answer this. Why on earth are there foreigners answering a Brit question???? Can't get enough of us lol. **** off and go eat your fast food a2x4dc the UK and US are not siblings whatsoever. We separated years ago and so we have nothing in common. We are both foreign to each other

Answer: My favourite country!

Question: How did most women view the woman question by 1900? 1. Which of the following helped reduce the time needed to do housework? (1 point) technological advances division of labor between husbands and wives smaller homes government-funded maid service 2. Why did middle-class women join volunteer organizations after the Civil War? (1 point) pressure from husbands need for intellectual and social stimulation rejection of household duties appeal of job-training programs 3. In what fields did most women professionals work? (1 point) law, engineering, ministry education, health care, social work science, music, manufacturing architecture, textiles, banking 4. How did most women view the woman question by 1900? (1 point) supported drastic social change rejected marriage as an important goal wanted only economic equality agreed with the principle of greater rights for women 5. What development helped women take their first steps toward public life? (1 point) rise of labor unions laws giving women pay equal with that of men rise of national women's groups mens' increased interest in women's rights

Answer: 1. Technological advances, electric light, indoor plumbing, etc helped. 2. Need for intellectual and scoial stimulation 3. Education. There were large numbers of women teachers. 4. I could not say for sure. Certainly most women did not reject marriage. And i don't think most wome wnated drastic social change. Economic equality and greater rights for women probably appealed to a much larger number of women. 5. Rise of national women's groups

Question: graduated with a masters in manufacturing engineering. what is the average pay? hey there. i accepted a job offer with a starting pay at 45k. i already signed the paperwork, but was just curiose what the average pay was. They have put a lot of time and effort into training me..and it was a good opportunity to work for them. It is a japanese company called sodick. should i have looked for a higher pay?

Answer: This depends on your previous experience as well. It is pretty decent start up, but if you had years of experience, it may be better to look for a better pay. Also, what is your position in the company? (I don't think I was clear on that)

Question: Possible Mechanical or Manufacturing engineering jobs outcomes for automotive industry? Like i want to be a engineer that is more hands on then sitting around designing and i am really interested on how a car works. And Which one is better suited for me mechanical or manufacturing or any other engineering job? or is even engineering right For me?

Answer: It's extremely common for people who have a strong interest in cars to gravitate to the field of mechanical engineering. It's even more common to work in an area other than automotive engineering. How do these sound? I know a company in Hollywood that make specialty mechanical equipment used by cinematographers. Lots of companies are automating medical instruments that sequence DNA robotically to provide low-cost ways of diagnosing genetic dispositions. I know a company making batteries for electric cars, a process requiring many automated processes. Engineering is a wonderful field for hands-on guys like you and me. Automotive engineering is great but it's a big world out there. Don't limit yourself!

Question: what can someone do as a major in Manufacturing Engineering Technology? what kinda of career options are there, what is the difference from regular engineering?

Answer: Engineering has many disciplines, mechanical, electrical, electro-mechanical, manufacturing, civil, architectural, etc. One of the duties of a qualified manufacturing engineer is to create manufacturing processes for many applications. One instance could be for manufacturing a metal object that a client may need in quantities of thousands. They'll need a system that cuts, stamps (or forges), perhaps grinds, and polishes the raw stock into a finished piece. There is no such machine available so the project would be given to a mechanical engineer to evaluate. He would use his education to devise a series of processes that could be linked together into a manufacturing system. Once the engineer is confident with his theories he would do some pertinent sketches then sit with a manufacturing engineer and a mechanical designer to express his ideas. The designer would take all of the information and create complete documentation packages to have the equipment fabricated. During that process, a manufacturing engineer would work with the designer to determine the best, or least expensive, ways to create the parts for the system. There are many interim design reviews, checks and balances, and approvals in the design and documentation process and the engineers often presides over those meetings so they know their theories were followed. That is a simple overview but I hope it helps to explain your question. Good luck with your career, it an impressive vocation.

Question: Is manufacturing engineering a hands on job or you actually are involved in the development of a product? Like i wanted to be a engineer when i was young and really wanted to pursue it. But i dont want to be sitting down and designing i rather prefer hands on work.

Answer: You get to do it all, particularly in smaller companies. Design, debug, install prototypes. But the repetitive (boring) work of cranking out widget after widget is done by (lesser-paid) persons who prefer that type of work over brain work. I've worked in private consulting engineering (= design only), private manufacturing, and government engineering. The manufacturing sector is the most fun, in my opinion.

Question: What skill would be more appealing to mechanical engineering employers, Manufacturing & CNC or Solidworks? I would like to know which skill the majority of mechanical engineering employers would find more appealing in a candidate. Knowledge in manufacturing & CNC processes or SolidWorks?

Answer: I have worked in manufacturing and CNC for a few years and been doing CAD for about one year. There are people who just strictly know how to use CAD software and make a decent living but they can't even hold a conversation with an engineer because they don't have any clue what it is they are drawing (or even some of the simple features on a part and their purpose), what problems that might occur during the manufacturing process, material properties, mechanical shaft fits, I could go on and on. The Metalworkers (sheet metal mechanics, welders, CNC, and conventional Machinists) All have to know the what the things are that i listed. Most shops during this drag economy have been cutting cots by getting rid of their CAD department because they can sometimes be an unnecessary tool. CNC programmers use their own software very similar to CAD software and can pick up AutoCAD, Solidworks, or CATIA very quickly and easily. So I guess you have my answer.

Question: What type of roles will i be able to get in with epilepsy in manufacturing engineering?

Answer: I don't think having epilepsy would be a total impediment to a career in manufacturing engineering, but there are a couple of things that you might need to avoid. First, my limited understanding of epilepsy is that events can be triggered by flashing lights. So you might need to stay away for situations where you are exposed to welding or other manufacturing processes that generate short bursts of light. Second, because an episode could be more dangerous if it occurred in a hazardous setting, you might need to be selective about the industry in which you find work. But if the manufacturing engineering job you find involves planning or manufacturing process design, with limited or no need to spend significant time in the manufacturing plant itself, I don't think you would have a problem. This is the 21st century. Industry needs talented people, and we need to focus more on ways to include qualified people and less on ways to exclude people with various handicaps.

Question: Can I change my career from manufacturing engineering to information technology?

Answer: I did exactly that. I was a Mechanical / Manufacturing Engineer for 10 years, then switched over to Robotics / Simulation for a year, and then all of a sudden I was categorized as an IT person. This led me to many IT jobs and I have matured into a decent software engineer who simulates, what else, manufacturing and mechanical systems. Initially, my pay scale jumped well from the common 2 - 5 % range per year as a M.E., to 12 - 17 % a year as an IT. But since about 5 years ago I plateaued around 0 - 2%. So I changed companies (twice) which helped me jump back up to that 10 - 15 % range. So - take full advantage of your Me/Ma Engineering skills when going to the IT sector.

Question: Manufacturing engineering,mechanical engineering,Aerospace or Nano technology? I'm a manufacturing engineer & I want to select 1 of the scinces belove to study in M.S. course. which one do u sujest that is more efficiant & have good job oportunity specially for the one who is innovator & inventor? 1- Manufacturing engineering 2- mechanical engineering 3- Aerospace 4- Nano technology

Answer: I guess that would depend on the employment base in the area where you want to live.... I live just north of Montreal and we have a huge base in the aerospace industry. The problem is that the industry as a whole is _very_ conservative so innovation is not as large as some would like. It's tough to break the mold to boot.... nano is still a lost entity... it doesn't yet have eough traction in the business world to afford good employment opportunities yet.... maybe in 5-8years things will be different... That leaves 1 or 2.... personally... I have to lean towards mechanical... but again employment opportunities are 'challenging'... if you find something you like the doors are wide open to you to explore avenues that interest you. and finally why do I sound like guidance counsellor!

Question: Which would I opt for Electrical Engineering of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering ? Please help me out which should i opt for EE or IME ?? Which is best future and salary wise ??

Answer: Any form of engineering usually pays good! I think though go for IME because then atleast you have more options! EE would be the same thing basically over and over again so you would probably get very board with it unless you have a dying passion for it which you probably don't have cause you questioning it. Although my one friends dad studied EE for 10 years and here in South Africa earns R110 000 a month (which is allot). But i know before he got the job he was struggling to find work! What you could also do is go onto a site that has jobs available and then look at the different salaries companies are offering for the two different types of engineering. That way you can also see what kind of jobs you would do if you studied either one of those aswel as what salaries they would pay! Hope that helps :)

Question: Which is the best Electrical Engineering or Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering ? Plzz help me out Which is right career path EE or IME ? Jobs wise and money wise leaving behind interest!!

Answer: IME is more theoretical and less of what is commonly associated with engineering. Electrical engineering is more obvious what it is about. I may be biased, as I am an electrical engineer, but I tend to think of people who want to be engineers go for electrical/mech eng, and those who think engineering is kind of a good career but have no wish to actually do any engineering go for one of the "soft" options. Also, there is a lot more scope for electrical engineers, and also with electrical eng qualifications you could convert to IME roles fairly easily. With IME qualifications I very much doubt you could hold water in an electrical role. Finally, most of the people I have worked with in IME type roles have no academic qualifications in the field, maybe some vocational stuff but even that is not essential. The "real" engineers have al been qualified.

Question: can any one tell me how to get manufacturing engineering job in singapore? Agencies contact address? exams? direct contact with the companies? how to get companies list in singapore?

Answer: Google.. Singapore manufacturing market is relatively pretty small, and the focus is more on services. So the chances would be very slim, unless you've wonderful experience.

Question: Polymer Engineering,manufacturing with management or Applied Physics better? I'm applying for public university and I have no idea which course to choose.

Answer: The question to ask is which is a better fit for you. THe freshman curriculum will be very similar for polymer engineering and applied physics, and typically you do not need to decide until spring of freshman year. Manufacturing with management sounds like a bachelors in business administration, perhaps with a trace of industrial engineering thrown in. I'd say get a real engineering degree, so you could do engineering or management, have both options.

Question: What is the hourly billing rate for a Manufacturing Engineering Consultant in the electronics industry? electronic manufacturing (contract EMS) to perform process improvements

Answer: You'd have to account for regional price variations, the industry market potential, the experience of the individual consultant, the number of similar consultants operating in the region, and the 'notoriety' of the consultant in question. But, making a reasonable guesstimate, the value would be around US$200 per hour - if the consultant is well-known in the industry, has at least fifteen years consulting experience, and an excellent track record. If the amount of experience is less, or if the degree of notoriety is lower, the amount that will seem reasonable to clients will be proportionately lower ... perhaps as low as US$100 per hour. And remember that this includes EVERYTHING ... there's no add-ons for travel, materials, accomodations, etc. And hours are only 'billable hours', which means time spent on-site doing the consulting.

Question: would i be able to get into aircraft manufacturing with a Btec national in manufacturing engineering? the units include: Business systems communications project maths for technicians MECHANICAL principles materials hydraulics & pneumatics cad primary forming secondary finishing cnc further maths setting & proving six sigma manufacturing planning Health & safety welding

Answer: Yes, let's take Airbus as an example since they've won several awards for their manufacturing apprentice development programmes. UCAS states that a BTEC National (Award) as roughly equivalent to an A Level - this means that you should be qualified to join at either Higher Apprenticeship or Craft Apprenticeship level.

Question: what is the pridedure of reverse engineering for manufacturing aviation engine parts?

Answer: if you are seeking PMA approval from the FAA for the manufacture of these parts you need first to go to the FAA regulations governing PMA application. OEM manufacturers also deal with the FAA, but you will not get any engineering data about their products from the FAA as it is considered proprietary in nature. PMA is granted on the bases of test and computation where by you must reverse engineer the part creating your own drawings and specifications, manufacture a test sample then test your part back to back with the OEM part proving it to be as good or better fit, form and function. this will require a full test report and first piece inspection subbmitted to the FAA engineering department for their approval. Your eligibility list for this part will have to be proved to the FAA by documentation of the part number that the OEM assigned as it may be referenced in maintenance manuals and such. Your part will have it's own unique part number to referance as a replacment for the original. manufacturing of this item must be done in the U.S. to allow continuous monitoring by the FAA and your manufacturing and quality inspection system must be approved by the FAA as well. The FAA is your customer, as such all product that you make for the flying public will be traceable and the FAA will enforce all governing rules and regulations pertaining to the distribution, use and sale of your products. You will maintain records and stand audits as deemed nessecary by the FAA. On the specifics of reverse engineering, a good engineer should be very well versed in this. some of the fine points. material composition such as alloy done by metallurgical tests. tolerance and dimensional criteria by inspection CMM inspection works good along with other acceptable methods. weight by a calibrated scale. performance and strength by test and computation by acceptable methods and practices.

Question: What is Manufacturing Engineering? As a recent Mechanical Engineering graduate looking for a job, I see a lot of Manufacturing Engineering jobs available and even after reading the description I am still not sure what they do. Is Manufacturing and Process/Quality engineering the same thing???

Answer: Manufacturing engineer: Job description and activities A manufacturing engineer will plan, design, setup, modify, optimise and monitor a manufacturing process. They work to produce high quality goods efficiently in the most cost effective methods and are conscious of the environment and its protection. Manufacturing engineers are designers, as well as analytical and creative thinkers. They can operate on their own initiative but also contribute as a team member working with engineers from various disciplines. Manufacturing engineers also work with other professionals, in areas such as finance and health and safety. Manufacturing engineers have the benefit of working in a wide range of areas, as the basic manufacturing principles apply to all industries. They are employed in numerous sectors, including food and drink, oil, plastics and pharmaceuticals. http://www.prospects.ac.uk/p/types_of_job/manufacturing_engineer_job_description.jsp Process engineer Job description A process engineer develops economical industrial processes to make the huge range of products on which modern society depends, including: food and drink; fuel; artificial fibres; pharmaceuticals; chemicals; plastics; toiletries; energy; and clean water. Process engineers may work in small, medium and large businesses. The work is concerned with chemical and biochemical processes in which raw materials undergo change, and involves scaling up processes from the laboratory into the processing plant. Responsibilities involve designing equipment, understanding the reactions taking place, installing control systems, and starting, running and upgrading the processes. Environmental protection and health and safety aspects are also significant concerns. http://www.prospects.ac.uk/p/types_of_job/print/process_engineer.jsp

Question: what is the easiest manufacturing engineering school in USA? i mean without working hard in college..easy degree to get easy teachers !! easy courses i want easy everything ??...PLEASE, DO NOT MAKE FUN OF MY QUESTION ..

Answer: There is no such thing as an easy engineering degree. Even if you have an easy teacher, the coursework is extremely challenging and demanding. Also, if you have a poor education, you will not land a job. If you do, you will not know what you are doing and could cause serious harm. Do us all a favor. If you aren't willing to put in the work, pick a different route.
