STEM professions:

What're the most lucrative STEM professions within Veeky Forums's objective opinion?

E>T>M>S

>Engineering>Technology
Mfw Wngineering is technology

'Helpful'.

Anyway, math related shit always helps you the most and so is physics and maybe chemistry but you would have to specialize on something other than just "Chemistry" itself

Engineering's good too but the best ones are EE and MechE

My buddy graduated a semester earlier than the traditional 4 years after high school, he's 22 now and just got a raise to 100k. He was a comp sci major, really bright guy

It was to stop people claiming to be and subsequently derailing the thread.

>he best ones are EE and MechE.
Perfect, exactly the information I was after.

>He was a comp sci major, really bright guy
This is the first time I've seen anyone on Veeky Forums complement a CS major.

>objective opinion
No such thing exists.

ME is usually classical mechanics, thermodynamics and close to materials science.

EE is closer to modern physics. It deals with the unseen.
Modern physics has a much larger cross section with EE through semiconductors, optics, etc.
Plus control theory has been typically a field associated with EE inside engineering and generally with applied math.

There are too many memes and shitters on this board. It usually matters how and how much you apply yourself and how much talent you got a lot more than what kind of degree you got inside STEM.
Example:
One of my professors is a Physicist, yet he is interested in engineering and now he teaches engineering students. One of his research partners in the US got his degree in EE and currently he is Professor of Physics.


What you can enjoy and do for a long(er) time pretty much depends on your own personal taste and abilities. If you can learn on your own (which you should be capable of doing no matter what) and you have a broad enough degree you can probably transition pretty easily.

I advise mastering reading and writing before considering STEM, friend

u dont need art in life or stem though
