What are employment possibilities after getting a dimploma in mechanical engineering technology at Algonquin?
March 8th, 2010Hello. I am going to Algonquin College in September and I am curious what the employment possibilities are after graduation with this program? Also is it a competitive job market?
Go to www.monster.ca and do a search for "mechanical engineer" to get a current idea. Triple the number of jobs that turn up to get a number available when you graduate.
Overall, this is a good field to get into.

What’s the difference between computer engineering and computer engineering technology?
March 7th, 2010I know they’re totally different
Those are terms that are typically used to describe a course of study in a university or a technical school.
A person enrolled in computer engineering is probably in a 4-year program that will result in a bachelor of science degree. (or possibly longer, for an advanced degree) Upon graduating, he/she will work as an engineer in a corporation or an engineering firm. He/she will be paid in the form of an annual salary, and will probably not have to punch a time clock. This is a professional job, and is not unionized.
A person enrolled in computer engineering technology is probably in a 2-year or shorter program of study. Upon graduation, he/she will work as a technician, under the supervision of engineers. A technician is paid an hourly wage. In many locations (but not everywhere), technicians are represented by a union.

Can anyone tell me the difference between aircraft engineering and aviation technology?
March 6th, 2010Hello there,
I have applied for aircraft engineering in serveral unis 4 this year.
I have got a reply from a uni which is gd news but, I have applied there for Aircraft Engineering BEng however they have invited me to do Aviation Technology BSc. Can anyone help me with which course is better? I also would like to know what sort of jobs available with aviation technology, and is which is a higer degree BEng or Bsc?
Can anyone please help me?
thank you for your time!
in engineering you learn about the inner workings of the engineering and the design decisions that go in the making of aircraft. This involves a lot of mathematics physics and a lot of engineering aviation related courses.
in technology, you learn just a top level idea on how to use some fundamentals tools and software related to aircrafts.

What’s the difference between <Computer science> and <computer engineering technology>?
March 5th, 2010Thank you.
I think "Computer engineering technology" isn’t full on "computer engineering." Links to the College Board site below for all three, and further links to programs at DeVry and a Michigan CC.
My analysis: CET is a mishmash, with bits of circuitry, networking, programming, and testing; this prepares students for technician-type jobs around networking or hardware or software support and testing. The College Board says CETs can "help computer engineers" and topics include "computer installation and testing, and report writing," but they don’t list any "Related Careers" as for other majors.
Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Engineering are probably more academic programs.
In a CS program, you should learn how the hardware works, but focus a lot on learning what you can make it do, and how to write and analyze programs. CE sounds somewhere between CS and EE.
If you’ve got four years to blow, I’d take EE if you like hardware and logic, or CS if you like algebra or programming, or just don’t like hardware, and switch to MechEng or Business if you discover you hate CS/EE.
