What careers would be possible with a Mechatronics degree vs Mechanical Drafting degree through a trade school.?
I am considering two different paths after graduating from high school. One would be a traditional college route with a four year degree in Mechatronics. The other would be a nearby trade school that offers an Associate degree in Drafting/Design and provides job placement assistance. For the past few years I have been on my school's robotics team and really enjoy designing the robot in CAD then 3-D printing all the parts to build it. I think both pathways lead to a similar career, but one is quicker and a fraction of the cost. Am I correct in this?
What steps should I follow to get an expertise in SOLIDWORKS ?
As a mechanical engineering student I am looking to master CAD.
Which 3D modeling careers involve Autodesk Inventor, Fusion 360, or Solidworks How do I go about looking for these jobs?
I love modeling, and have been on this career path since high school. But searching for jobs like this always brings up CAD, and that's not something I care about unfortunately. I also do not know how to use sheet metal, or make electrical plans. None of this was ever taught to me. So now I feel completely lost searching for jobs that fall within my skillset (Modeling, and making technical drawings from existing blueprints) If it helps, I recently earned my CSC (Career Studies Certificate) in computer aided drafting and design, and was hoping that would be enough to find a job.
What are the best ways to build your portfolio and showcase your work as engineers?
Hi! I'm currently a graduate student studying mechanical engineering and I'm interested in working in mechanical design after I finish my degree. As I've been working on some small designs using Autodesk Inventor, I've be looking for ways to showcase my design in a portfolio, but I'm not sure of the best way to do it professionally. #engineering #engineer #mechanical-engineering #mechanical-design #AutoCAD #Autodesk-Inventor #Autodesk-Fusion-360 #Solidworks #jewelry-design #consumer-product-design #tool-design
