is this course really marketable in kenya, do people who pursue it get good paying jobs? where do they work?
i have a cousin who wants to drop architecture in his second year and pursue mechatronics because its ‘‘in line with his passion’’
nigga tells me he cant stand spending hours in front of a laptop drawing building plans, ati it bores him and cant see himself committing to the job in the field
the parents want him to complete and join his brother who is a practicing architect (the brother was the main reason why he was drawn into studying architecture)
Let him join mechatronic engineering as soon as yesterday.those two courses are on of those passion-centric courses i know from experience…akishaboeka hvyo na architecture blv me he wont ever finish that course as it only gets harder as you proceed with it to later years.on the other hand once ushapenda mechatronics ni hvyo hadi mwisho cz all that robotics n stuff fascinates sm people n they get to love it deeply. N yes its very marketable especially in the current machine automation era
Kama ameshidwa na architecture mwambie ajaribu education and the like…
Mechatronics hatatoboa.
What is usually wrong na students who change courses along the way.
Currently the course with combined with electrical Enginering is very marketable since most of the companies in kenya are fully automating their systems
passion and earning a decent livelihood don’t usually go hand in hand, you do passionate stuff in your free time or after you have achieved so much its a hobby, let him stick to becoming an architect, the brother will most likely bootstrap him and he will most likely not struggle much and after that he can go back and do robots and software and mechanical engineering, have never understood why create a course that meshes all those into one.
advice him to focus and learn to finish ‘projects’, if he has too much time and is bored let him take some cpa or ccna certifications, lakini kwanza amalize that course.
@muchuna is right. We do what we do to so that we can make more and more money. Personally, I wanted to be a pharmacist. I dont think I would be as successful as I am today
