Industrial Engineering vs Mechanical Engineering?

I have a passion for Mechanical Engineering but I'm worried about keeping that passion as I progress through my career. I have heard that Industrial has even better pay and more demand nowadays. Thoughts?

What is it like to be a Mechanical Engineer?

Is it a desk job? Does it require a lot of hands on work? Do you carry a lot of individual responsibility or is there a lot of teamwork? Does your income allow you to live comfortably? #engineering #career #income

Do you think the increase in administrative jobs and decrease in faculty jobs at specific institutions show a weakness in that specific school?

I have just read an article saying that the college I am attending had less faculty jobs than years before. This worries me slightly and will hamper my goals to get that job I want in life. #teaching #teacher #students

Is it worthwhile to pay a large application fee to a school you might not get into?

I'm thinking of applying to several schools with a 15% or lower acceptances rates, and their application fees are quite high. Should I only apply to a few of these schools or maybe just one? #school #fee

Is a minor in women and gender studies a good pairing with a political science/communications major/minor combo?

Women and gender studies as a minor is something I'm interested in, but I'm told it's a useless background to have. Do you think it's still "useless" if I want it to supplement a career in advocacy?? I am semi-lost with this #communications #political-science #gender-studies #advocacy #women-studies
