I wish you have a great time studying at Sheffield :D there are a lot of cool student led projects you should get involved in!

Which university did you go to ?

@@161BMWI did my BEng in Swansea, MSc in Sheffield. I’m now working at Leonardo Helicopters near Bristol as a Graduate Aerospace Engineer.

😂

Thanks for sharing your advice and thanks for replying to other viewers, who had questions 😀

@@SA64R You are more than welcome, thanks for the videos, keep it up! You likely help a lot of people with them, so kudos to you. I notice you attended Sheffield Uni, I do quite a bit of research with them as it happens, do you know Prof. Geraint Jewell? I've done quite a bit of work with him and his team.

@@onetrickhorse Unfortunately, I don't know him, wasn't taught by him during my time at Sheff. Btw, I read another comment you made, saying your work is researching advanced aerospace propulsion systems. I'd like to learn more about what you do, if you have instagram just send me a messsage @sa64r or email me at sa64rvideos@gmail.com

@@SA64R ah no worries. Yes indeed, that's my role. And sure, I don't have insta, but I found you on LinkedIn, so I've sent a connection request there.

I would recommend looking now, the earlier the better. My company offer summer internships for anyone over the age of 14, all you need to do is get in touch and ask them directly. Email someone. Create a LinkedIn account, message people. Just show your enthusiasm and have a plan for what you want to do, even if it's not set in stone yet, it shows initiative.

I agree with what CP has said, generally the more enthusiastic and proactive you are at a young age the more willing someone will be to help you, and once you have got your foot in the door with experience more and more people will be open to letting you join their company. LinkedIn and twitter are probably two great places to showcase your talent and connect with engineers and companies you want to work with

Depends what you want out of it, like I would say if you want to become a software engineer in industry it's not really necessary but if you want to go down the route of AI researcher than I'd say it may be a requirement to land a PhD in some machine learning AI discipline

It will be hard as most aerospace companies in the USA need you to be able to attain US security clearance since they treat these companies as defence companies

Yes. I was offered two finance jobs in London when I graduated with a masters in aerospace engineering. Two of my classmates took jobs in the city in finance, but a word of caution. Finance is well known for being extremely well paid, but it is also well known for being completely consuming. One of my classmates who went into finance (merchant banking) did two years, ended up with severe depression due to exhaustion, and quit. He was doing 90 hour weeks, sleeping at his desk, and getting shouted at constantly by bosses who just wanted more and more from him, no matter how hard he worked, no matter how well he did. He still hasn't fully recovered, and that was nearly 10 years ago. The other still does it (investment banking), became a millionaire fairly quickly (he was a very capable mathematician), and now he earns more in a year than most people earn in a lifetime, but speaking to him recently, he confessed that he hates the job and wants to get out and start a business. Apparently everyone in the field is either fake or psychotic, all trying to stab you in the back, and morals are not only discouraged, but actively avoided altogether, all in the name of making money from nothing essentially. I asked him, but don't you have enough money now to just quit and do whatever, see the world, live a nice life? He said yes, but not as long as he's working in that trade because like my other classmate, he has to basically live at work doing insane hours. I considered going into it myself, but I decided that I didn't care about money, I wanted to invent and contribute to society. So a word of caution, if money is what drives you, and only money, and you'll do anything to get it, including working 90 or more hours a week for years on end, suffer abuse and torment by entitled millionaire bosses, and basically give up all social and leisure time to dedicate it to work, then go for it. If any single one of those things sounds unappealing to you, do yourself a favour and ask yourself, what motivates you, why do you get up in the morning, what do you want your legacy to say about you.

@@onetrickhorse I would be lying if I said I didn’t care about money, but only the freedom aspect it gives you, and reading your classmate’s accounts and others online Id have to say that the Finance job itself seems to cancel out the freedom you get from the money. Just out of interest what are you doing now?

@@georgefay8777 Yeah I do agree with you about the freedom element of earning a lot of money, it does allow you to do things that simply aren't an option for many, plus it solves a lot of potential worries in life for sure. But as you rightly gathered, you need time to spend it, and if you take time off in finance, they can just fire and replace you in a split second. Like with most things, it is never a win-win, it is a trade off between time and money. The more money you earn, regardless of how, the less time you have to spend it. The trick is to find out what you would need to do the things you want, and aim for that. I am an aerospace engineer, I work in future propulsion concepts research for a major propulsion company. My day-to-day involves designing aircraft concepts, the propulsion systems (electrical, hybrid, jet engines, ramjets, and many more), and some spacecraft propulsion concepts.

India 🇮🇳

@@devshah2626 I was thinking that too

To some degree yes but without any practical skills no-one will really want to take you on at a top tier company

@@SA64R ok but to get the placement and the job you need the degree which is a minimum entrance requirement.

@@161BMW he doesn't reply because he's embarrassed and an idiot who didn't even know the minimum requirement thing.

There are many industries that use CFD, automotive, motorsport, civil and defence aerosapce, renewable energy, train engineering etc so anything that requires movement at medium to high speeds would need CFD engineers.

"when I mention it ppl say ohh wow!" I relate :D

What field is this?

@@SA64R computer science, it’s not useless but just having a degree isn’t enough. I’m working on certifications now.

That is a broad topic, any particulars you're keen to know about?

bro u need to become a Aerodynamicist what in need to do and where in the internship please 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 help......

Where did you study? Maybe your university taught more practical skills?

Aerospace Engineering

@@SA64R What's the difference between Thermofluids and Turbomachinery, Aerospace and Aeronautical Engineering.
