What is the outlook on employment of a mechanical engineering degree 20 years from now?
>>
jack of all trades master of none

you'll be relegated to being auto mechanics
>>
serious answers please not NEET shitposting
>>
>>7735536
ME will always be a solid discipline
>>
MechE/AeroE pursuing MBA here, can confirm that management = big $$$$. Work in an industry that suits you, then go ahead and get experience.
>>
>>7735536
Pretty much same as it's always been
>>
>>7735536
all the old mechE are dying so youll be fine taking over their work

serious answer? engineering is going to become the next premed. its already happening. People have caught on that
doctor = $$$
engineer = $$$
lawyer = $$$
CEO = $$$
in general we have an overpopulation of people going to college. go into a STEM field you enjoy and do well in it. you need to be the best at what you are doing, not be looking for the most relevant degree.

>>7735538
Not unless you master specialise in something e.g. AE
>>
There are more scientists alive now than has ever existed in all of mankinds history.
The same is true of engineers.
However the dollaz associated with the position will be concentrated up in the elite.
>>

Get into the Solar world; in the realm of system design there is good work for there. I say this because you have almost zero intelligentsia in upper/mid level positions in the solar world right now, as a lotta dudes were more or less imported from other careers to fill seats due the youth of the market. If you specialized in solar system design and had the structural engineering bg to back it up you'd be in solid contention for a upper level position in a nascent market; in the energy sector no less.

The outlook? As there is more complex technology, there will need to be more complex maintainers/designers/operators.

There will be a point where being an aerospace maintainer will require an EE or MechE degree. Hell the level required for my Avionics AMEL was the same as 3rd year for my EE degree as far as circuit analysis and design was concerned.

But then i work on french shit that flies on magic and baguettes
>>
>>7735536
Not good.

By then we will have virtual intelligence doing the design, engineering and operations.
>>
>>7735536
well a scientist can't do shit but come up with a theory, you'll be needed to make it actually work or to be able to explain to him why he needs to fuck off.
>>
Bleak

Just like your dating prospects
