Can Electrical Engineers study mechanical engineering?

Pursuing a double major in mechanical and electrical engineering allows graduates to work on a very wide range of products. They will learn the skills needed to design machines and electrical devices, and to determine the best power sources for those products.

How do I switch careers in mechanical?

You can still shift your career from mechanical to software field. you can learn DOEACC certified B level or A level course. you can do some other course equivalent to that because apart from the practical knowledge you can learn theoretical knowledge, as some companies emphasis on it.

Is mechanical engineer better than electrical?

Which is better mechanical engineering or electrical engineering? Mechanical engineering and electrical engineering are both good programs and professions. However, Electrical engineering is the bridge between computer science and mechanical engineering. So, looking for better pay, then, EE is the best option.

Can mechanical engineer switch to it?

Yes . You can get into any software company even after having mechanical degree .

What additional certificates do I need to become an electrical engineer?

Additional certificates are just getting your “ticket punched” and aren’t really necessary but nice to have. This is not a difficult switch and if you have already graduated with an EE degree you will have had all the math. What you lack are the coding and the logic courses.

Is it possible for a software engineer to switch fields?

There are some engineers who have software programming experience, and the employers allow them switch fields. If it is possible, I would suggest going back to college. Find out from the university administration, the time and money required to get a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, dual BS vs Master’s degree.

Can an electrical engineer work in embedded systems?

Many electrical engineers work as software engineers in the embedded systems field. In fact it is my contention that EE’s generally make better embedded system programmers than ones with just a CS degree and no hardware experience.
