Popular Engineering Courses

Nice write-up to sum up some of the engineering courses. Heard of sound engineering? Heh, I'm considering taking this course.

Unlike it's physics & maths-based engineering counterparts, sound-engineering doesn't seems to need all these science and maths qualification, as what I read.

Thanks clf!
Sound engineering? Yup, I heard it before but not quite sure which uni offers it.

But i know that diploma in INFORMATION ENGINEERING acts as basic which leads to the degree.

And one more, mechatronics engineering. Anyone heard about it?

This post really caught my attention as I'm now studying Physics in lower 6.So, thanks for providing this info!!

I've heard of mechatronics before.It's a combination of MECHAnical and elecTRONIC engineering.I think it's something to do with robots like for building cars.However, I'm not sure whether the info I got is really accurate or not. =)

fch,mechatronics engineering is also known as electro-mechanical engineering.

Mechatronics engineering is a unique combination of engineering, electronics,control and intelligent computing.Some of the core modules that you will learn in the course include development and intergration of intelligent sensors, actuators,micro-systems,advanced decision-making and control strategies.

The course will prepare you to work with various mechatronics systems such as industrial robots,manufacturing lines,automation,cars,computer-controlled machine tools,electric typewriters and mobile phones among others.

You will need prior study of physics and mathematics (and in some cases a second science subject such as chemistry).

Hehey! I studied mechatronic engineering!
Yup, mechatronic is a all about control and system integration. Its all about making devices work together, and how to control them more effectively.

Salam, all. Among the items I would consider when chosing a career are:
i) If you want to be a Professional Engineer in Malaysia, I would check with the Board of Engineers Malaysia to ensure that your course is accredited.
ii) What do you want as a career? If it's an engineering field, you might find that you have a wide choice of disciplines. For example, I work in the oil & gas industry, and have a ChemEng degree, but I see the whole gamut of eng disciplines working around me. If your career is not eng, then choose a course that might be more general, with options for finance, creative arts and the like.
Have fun, all you young 'uns.

engineering is a WIDE, terribly wide field of study. what you have touched on here are the courses which are often discussed and chosen by students. i believe you could have done a little bit more homework and talked about the other engineering courses which is facing a worldwide shortage. there are many professional level engineering professions (which means you hold a professional certificate, renewable) which also reward you heftily. some who are so dependent on whether their qualifications are recognised by the BEM haven't really seen the world on the other side. i hope to see better coverage of a subject in the near future, and not the same usual stuff i can find via google.

Cheers!

I think most malaysia-student prefer to chose civil and electrical engg, it is because the goverment only send and offer this engg courses as the main. If the student choose earospace or nanotech engg , I think there is no job for them at Malaysia!!!

i would like to ask do you have any recommended college or university in malaysia for engineering course? mechatronics, telecommunication and electronic are my interest.. thanks!

hey! Guys...
Is tat the financial engineering relate with course of engineering...?

hey, u should give more information about marine engineer. It is one of the in demand career but not widely expose among malaysian. Great article by the way!

hi this is a very good post anyway!
can i ask about genetic engineering?
where can i study it in Malaysia??
im a SPM leaver. thanks!

Hey, great article. Petronas offers several engineering fields in its scholarsips and I was confused then because of the lack of exposure. But I eventually chose chemical engineering cuz I hink I would relly enjoy working wth chemicals...Electrical engineering seems to be the toughest among all, at least that's what my uncle said. But it also offers the widest opportunities...everything is electronic now!

emm.. can you tell me more about mechatronic engineering..
i still blur about me.. hu3.. help me..

can you tell me.. what job can i handle for the future if i take mechatronic engineering corse.. pliz.. help mee..

i am going to futher my study in mechanical engineering course soon. but my problem is that i don't really know about this course, because that is my father suggestion. does the course still in the gouverment demand list? i hope someone can help me regarding my ploblem. thank you very much.

hey guys, how bout audio engineering??
i owez wanted to take that course.......

hi..can i know more about mechanical engineering?i want to know more about the basic salary in malaysia..can you elaborate more on that pls?..thanks

hello! I am currently in form 5. I'm very much interested in aeronautical engineering as I like all the things that is airborne. other than that, i also like to learn about how other things works like cars, machines and so on. I guess that is Mechanical engineering right? I don't want to just learn one thing. So which course is better? better as in most beneficial. Thanks :)

hi...can u tell me bout power engineering and the demand of power engineering in this era??

hey.great post by the way.im interested in doing telecommunication or chemical engg because i enjoy learning chemistry.but my father prefer me to take mechatronic engg because he said that chemical engg is way hard.really?

Hey,
I am not studying civil engineering as of now, i am doing BBA-IT course, but other than that I go to my father's site everyday and learn stuff practically. I am thinking of joining some college if they have a semester from january. Can you help me out with the choice of colleges?

Thank you

is anyone knows the university in malaysia offering sound engineering course? thanks 4 the info

I would like to know more about environmental engineering...

Hi, i would like to pursue my study in aerospace engineering.
does it need a degree in mechanical/electrical engineering as u wrote above? im confused a bit maa. help me ;(

Hai.. I want to ask something. Manufacturing engineering is about what and is it demanding in MALAYSIA? Hope i can get the answer. Thanks

I want to know more about civil engineering..
somebody help me please...

Pls help me...i'm kind of lost right now...
no body guide me and i just finish my SPM waiting for my result... i don't know what course should i take... i only know that engineering is my best choise cause i love to do things related to hand... However there are so many course in engineering... which are the course that relate more to hand?
Pls help me... i really need help and it is quite urgent
