Do engineers in the real world use ANY of the math they spend thousands of hours learning in college? Should you still major in engineering if you dislike or are bad at math? I answer all of these questions and more in this video by covering every math class you will take in college, show you what my exams looked like, and how much of each class you will use in industry (based on type of engineer) as well as their real-world applications, if any. I also dive into the most common and important computational software that engineers use in the real world and talk about several useful advanced math courses that most universities offer.

How you ranked the usefulness of all the core math courses is so helpful. I never knew which math classes to focus on because I didn't know the real world applications of them. This is why I ended up doing so bad in most of them. It's definitely worth the time to learn calculus 1, linear algebra, stats, and diffy qs and will pay dividends in the real world! Every engineering student needs to watch this video🔥

Couldn't agree more. Knowing the real world applications of each math class before it is taught can be a big motivational factor for students learning the material💯

The best advice that I can give as an electrical engineer that became an industrial automatization engineer is that, while you'll not use that much math or at least, you'll always have tools and software for math, you should at least understand for what the math is there for. To give you an example: I work a lot with "Proportional, Integrative and Derivative control algorithms" or "PID control" (which are featured on the thumbnail), with not entering in a lot of details, this is an algorithm that you should at least have passed calculous II to fully understand and industrial controllers use it to very precisely control industrial processes, but when the time comes to actually use and implement them, they are so simple that is actually confusing at first, you just need to enter 3 numbers (most of the time just 2) in order for the process to do its work correctly, this is to the point where the PID function blocks are treated like "black boxes" by most engineers and technicians that require minimum effort to understand and use. The thing is, if you understand what the PID function does at math level instead of treating it as a black box, then when the PID fail, it takes only a couple of minutes to figure out why it failed and how to fix it, while if you have no mathematical knowhow, it may take anywhere from a couple of hours to days to fix and potentially cost a fortune depending of what industrial process its controlling.

Universities spend a lot of time training engineers in complex mathematics. Very few engineers actually work calculus or solve differential equations on a daily basis. Many never have to solve a differential equation for their entire careers. 90% of your working life will involve running industry standard software packages combined with basic algebra, trigonometry, statistics and occasionally applying numerical methods using spreadsheets or Matlab. You need to be able to work the basics quickly and accurately. In truth most of the things engineers do are fairly basic, although it’s probably beyond the capability of 99.9% of the non engineering working population. In my opinion and experience being able to think conceptually and apply engineering to solve problems effectively is much more important than being a mathematical genius.

Great video. I want to mention that software devs tend to vary. On one hand, you have web devs who do not use any math at all. On the other hand, you have 3D rendering devs who probably use just as much math as electrical engineers.

@ALIENdrifter66 11 ай бұрын

Math intensity in Software is determined very much by what level of abstraction you're working on and the types of jobs you're doing. You can use almost 0% or use heavy maths. You might need to do reliability studies, computational analysis, load balancing, schedulling, Input/output schemas and optimizations, working on complex algorithms, using fuzzy logic, working with knowledge representation and adquisition and so on, or you can be working on more high level things like, user experience, UI design, deployment and quality techniques.

I’m currently taking calculus 1 again for the second semester in a row because I failed the first attempt, would you consider me still continuing through this path. I’m struggling real hard with word problems and figuring out what variables are given I’m losing hope in my dream of becoming a civil engineer due to failing my last exam. I don’t know what to

@tavi7181 Жыл бұрын

you’re good bro. just keep going. trust me you’re probably not giving it enough time. i’m in my third year in uni and majoring in mechanical engineering. i noticed that the more time you give a class. the more you understand the concept. calculus 1 might be hard for you because of the trig and algebra you are expected to know coming into the course. try to master your trigonometry and algebra since they will never leave your sight for the rest of your college degree as a civil engineer. just give it more time, but make sure to not stress yourself too much. ask for tutoring. i never did bc i just studied at home. do practice exams, do your hw, and study study study. it’s all worth it bro trust me. you have the world in your hands if you graduate as an engineer.

This video is rather stupid because engineering covers so many fields. Each field needs different maths. For example in quantum computing you need to understand group theory for error correction. The problem is if you don't have the maths vocabulary you wont have a very big tool box to give an analogy. Ask an engineer what he needs for his tool box. This is nuts. He packs his toolbox according the job he has been asked to do.

JMP. if you are just starting out in stats move over to JMP while you can get a trial. Easily the most intuitive stats software out there and the dialog boxes are pretty helpful.
