Thanks bro it’s mean’s a lot if someone giving you a proper guidance and details regarding your future dream job 😊😊😊😊😊
Means*
Thanks for all these videos on aerospace engineering, really clarified a lot for me. - A Sheffielder currently considering uni in London
Great to hear you're finding the vids informative :D
Exactly on the automotive. Speaking frok a US prespective. Mecheng degrees dont usually have any aerodynamics classes, so an aerospace degree helps with that since AE grads take many ME classes and 1 or 2 ECE classes like statics, dynamics, circuit analysis 1, thermodynamics, mechanics of materials, and probably strength of materials.
Thanks for this video
Great Video!
I think as we move forward and the demand for skilled personnel is needed (especially space and renewables), the salaries would increase.
Thanks :D And yes, I agree salaries are always dependent on how fast-growing an industry is.
Thanks a lot, really was useful as I saw two of my dream jobs there which got me more excited on picking aeronautical engineering over the others for university
Can I guess? Is it F1 engineer and rocket engineer? :D
@@SA64R ahhaha close enough, u got the f1 part right, huge mercedes fan btw, but I also really like the defense ones especially like companies such as rheinmetall or bae systems
@@gioabboud8220 I'm a merc fan too! Hence the excessive merc footage in the video LOL
@@SA64R I assumed so, too bad they aren't doing too well this season
@@gioabboud8220 Yeh not a great performance today either :(
Quality content bro. Can you make a video on making resume and cover letter for jobs?
Thanks, I do have this video covering CVs (czcams.com/video/fheq7pkbPKM/video.html), but can work on one for cover letters.
Can you suggest best college for aerospace in India
Will the salary for the jobs increase as the years progress?
My doubt is might i do master in aerospace engineering after bachelor in computer science
can i become an electric engineering when i study aerospace engineering? thank you
Google and meta pay almost the double if you consider the total competition
Are you referring to in the UK?
@@SA64R yes sir
Thanks a lot for lot of informative video, I want to pursue career in aero space, currently in 12th grade India, heard a lot of things about need citizenship/permanent residence or any security clearance or top security SCI clearance needed for getting the job after aero space education, is it right, if it is do we can get also career build out of India.
First of all tq sagar for all the good info , I'm currently pursuing my aerospace engineering bachelors final year in india and planning for my masters abroad , could you please help me with some querries ? i would like to know what are chances of getting placed in civil sector , motor sport and automotive as an international student?
Thanks! So I'd say getting into civil aerospace and automotive will be much easier to get into as a graduate compared to motorsports, due to the competitiveness. With the UK graduated visa now available it will reduce the need to ensure your employer sponsors your visa.
@@SA64R Thank you that we helpful 😀
so that's all about the money making things .. I really want to know about your study in more detail … like what was your experience of studying aerospace engineering ,, like exams, projects , internships… and as u have completed you bachelor's (if I'm not wrong ) then what about your job ??? did u get any offer letter from some well known company as u have mentioned AIRBUS BOEING ROLLS ROYCE MERRCEDES BMW ?? ...
I've got a video talking about my degree on my channel, check it out here -> czcams.com/video/BEzgzpfm2mw/video.html
Brother what is median salary of a rocket scientist in ESA or any other good agency in UK?
So for ESA, it is likely you will be working in another European country rather than the UK if you want to be a rocket engineer specifically. But to answer your questions, the median salary for this type of engineer after a few years of experience is £78,000 per year.
Here is an example job: jobs.esa.int/job/Frascati-Vega-Launch-System-Engineer-ESRI/686629601/
Does the “starting salary” part mean that there’s a potential wage increase after some years of experience?
Yes
I worry when I hear someone has had to study a masters degree just to go into the field of work they want to apply for, but I digress. I'll see if I want to continue working for Aerospace after I graduate my degree - yes you heard that right I landed a job with one and I ain't even doing a Aerospace degree... makes me wonder what the point is. I got in through AI and Robotics which is semi related, others got in through Games Programming and a general Computer Science degree... makes me think it's not what you know, it's who you know. I'm looking at these other possibilities and I actually considered working for lloyds but wrote it off because I would probably be bored working with databases all day. Thanks for the suggestion of Automotive though: that's actually a field I could see me getting into if Software doesn't sound all that appealing - oooh boy a position at Googell: what exactly would I be designing another gadget that spies on people or a piece of software that allows you to dissect information - same problem with amazon, there's just nothing that springs to mind when I think of these two. Netflix on the other hand does make you think about how to improve a streaming service but yeh the popular main 5 rally saturates an already saturated market when it comes to innovation. I personally want my next company to really motivate me: and no thanks aws: I don't want to go to your 2 hour long seminar on poorly explaining training how tos.
Did you find a job in your major after graduated? And did you face a problem in searching for a job?
I chose not to get a job in the aerospace industry because of reasons I spoke about here -> czcams.com/video/JXViUm7I5tc/video.html
Hi, I am having issue Finding a JOB related to my degree after graduating in 2019 (prepandemic) causing me to have gaps in my History. I was wondering if its a good choice to get a job and experience in Military (prefereabbly RAF - Airforce). any advice would help and welcome
You can try and become an engineer in the RAF, but there may be requirements of minimum length of service which may restrict you from job hoping if that's something you'd want to do
As an international student does it affect to get jobs in defence and space industry?
Yes, for defence especially you're often required to be a citizen of the country so in the UK you'll need to be a UK citizen.
@@SA64R what about civil aviation jobs and space industry jobs?
@@astronomerscave9631 civil aviation should be fine but not sure about space
Hi bro I need you to guide me... I'm studying rn areonatical engineering but in a small county like sudan ..so what u will tell me to do after graduation and what to do if I want to get a scholarship let say for master degree ...thanks
If Sudan has any aerospace engineering opportunities, I'd say try and get into those companies and gain some experience, then apply for a scholarship after a few years in the UK or USA to study a master's degree. This way you will learn whether or not you want to continue on the engineering/aerospace route without committing to study elsewhere which could be very costly.
@@SA64R last question...from your experience ,which department or specialization that is better to choose to make the Master in..??
hey bro,
so these career paths and salaries are after bachelors or masters?
and if only masters suggest some career opportunities for students who completed bachelors and maybe wanna do a job before getting a master's degree
These are salaries who have done either bachelors or masters, however, you are very very slightly more advantaged to get these careers if you have done a masters.
Hello, aeronautical bachelors student can do masters in renewable energy engineering, is it helpful for them??
I'd say they can if they want to go into the renewables industry
Heyy sagar.. Hope u doin well.. Just a question .that is it easy to get job in field of aerospace .. Like if i graduate and then is it possible for me to find a £25,000 job easily within a month or it takes time or do we have to build good resume or profile.. Other than uni things
It is definitely, NOT EASY. Best way is to do an internship at a company like Airbus and then they invite you back for a grad role if you performed well. Second case is work on student projects and demonstrate your practical skills and have these to talk about in interviews. If you do the bare minimum, you're very unlikely to get any well paid graduate job. Also for these roles, you typically want to begin applying when your final year starts since they already choose their graduate engineers before you have officially graduated.
Bro, I want to know whether Indians students can get job's in aerospace right after their masters in uk?
If you study in the UK then your chance does increase since the new graduate visa the UK has allows international students to live and work in the UK for 2 years without a sponsor. Internationals will only be allowed to work in the civil aerospace sector such as in airbus or rolls royce due to the intelligibility to pass security clearance checks for defence.
@@SA64R Thanks for your reply bro
Currently pursuing a mechanical diploma while intending to pursue both a bachelor's and a master's degree in aeronautical engineering. My question is: Besides my degree, what talents should I develop?
Develop your practical skills, get used to building real things that solve problems. That way you will make you a very sought out engineer
Hey can please tell us how one can apply to these opportunities
Best way is to check out the company websites and see if there are any open opportunities, or use linkedin to reach out to grads who work at your desired company and see if they have any insider tips.
hol up. Thats only like 30-40k a year in US Dollars, there is office jobs here paying 50-60k a year without any expensive schooling required, please tell me R and D makes more than that.
These are UK graduate salaries incase you missed that, but I agree the pay in UK aerospace engineering is so much worse than the USA
Why is the pay so bad??? Is that just a European thing? I've been doing a lot of digging around here in the US and starting salaries hear look to be between 60-80k USD/year for aerospace engineers. Right now I work in IT systems (helpdesk) with a salary of $46,000USD/yr, and I didn't even go to college for it.
I'm not fully sure on the reason why the pay is lower on this side of the Atlantic, but I'd say it comes down to cost of living. And I know it is very expensive to live in the areas around companies like SpaceX as they're in large cities. Where as in the UK aerospace companies are in mediocre towns.
US cost of living is way higher
@@fernandoroberts3591 US pay is higher than the difference in cost of living.
@@Kaw-rasu you guys pay for healthcare, rent and stuff is 2, 3x higher in some places even more, mobile data and Internet is higher, in the uk groceries are alot cheaper, in the uk you don't pay tips in restaurants and also in the uk you can get really good cheap cars (under 2/3k) while in the US you can't
@@fernandoroberts3591 None of these are really accurate. In places where rent is higher, pay is also higher. Groceries are generally about the same price, tips are not required and are only encouraged in certain types of restaurants, and you can get cheap cars here. At least until covid when the car market went to crap, but that's recovering. We also don't pay out the ass for taxes, so that offsets the cost of healthcare insurance.
Hey bro , how difficult is it to go into finance after engineering
I think it is challenging, as most engineering students who get into top finance roles do finance related internships during their studies. So to have a chance to get in you must do that too.
What industry would you want to work in?
I'm going to go into software engineering, this September, as I want to explore this for many reasons, so in the near future, it would be software.
@@SA64R do you need interships in the software/technology sector or not and have you secured a job ? good luck
@@itsyourtime6900 I have secured a job in London, I didn't do any internships in any field before graduating.
on a rough scale how much free time does an aerospace engineering student have on a weekly basis?
As one myself, I would say it really depends. Here in my country aerospace engineering is the most difficult university course to enter in, therefore me and my colleagues all spend a lot of time revising. Although, I would say that you still have enough time to do whatever you want.
I would say the course is very intense in comparison to the average course at uni. However, you do have enough time to focus on your studies and enjoy time with friends or playing sports. It all comes down to what you prioritise and how you manage your time.
Joao, where do you study aerospace?
@@SA64R I study at university of aveiro, Portugal
Brother is there any exams for Indian students to get into universities in uk for aeronautical or space engineers
Unfortunately, I'm a home student so don't know the process with any certainty. However, there may be some English exams you would need to pass to show you're able to conduct studies in English. They may be the IELTS, but I'm not fully sure.
Only IELTS but that's optional too. I am starting aerospace this year at Sheffield. They only asked for the CBSE scores.
@@nikiexpo433 Thanks for answering, and congrats on your place at Sheffield
You would have to check for specific universities, eg Imperial College has an entrance test called AMAT. You might choose to specialise in Aeronautical/Aerospace in your fourth year in a General Engineering course in which case you would have an entrance exam too, eg ENGAA for Cambridge
@@shreyasisrivastava83 does imperial have a test for mechanical engineering too?
The pay is very bad
Can international aerospace engineers with master from UK get job there after graduating ?
Yes
@@SA64R which university do u recommend for me for Master in aerospace engineering?
@@saadnawfalessaghir9048 czcams.com/video/-tga7qjyl20/video.html Any of these would be great
@@SA64R what do u think about Cranfield? u don't even mention it
@@moatassem6399 It's good but only offers MSc degrees, so I didn't feature it.
🤑🤑🤑
Hey!I wanna work at Raytheon in uk does it pays good
Reply I'm dying
Based on the graduate salaries, it is comparable to the other well-known aerospace companies like Airbus in the UK.
@@SA64R thanks man!
Can you suggest me government university in uk for aerospace engineering in master!!
So in the UK, all universities are legally independent of the country, therefore there are no "government universities". However, there are many universities that offer a masters in aerospace engineering. Some of the best are Imperial College London, Cranfield, Uni of Sheffield, Uni of Bath and Uni of Bristol
Then which university has low fees .
@@shamparana So if you're a UK student then they will all be the same of £9250 a year, however if you're an international then you will have to do your own research as since I am unfamiliar with international fees.
@@SA64R Thank you for your reply and cooperation.
You completed 4 year master's degree ??
Yes it is an integrated masters meaning I get a bachelors and masters in one degree
wait 28000 pounds a year for space? interesting statistic... at least at my university, average is 60k usd
This is the UK just for reference
us has higher cost of living and you have to pay for healthcare so it isn't really comparable
Bro in. which University do you studying and what is its tution fee
The University of Sheffield, and for me as a home student it costs £9250 per year
How old are you ??
22
29 thousand pounds a year for an aerospace engineer that does not sound right
These are graduate salaries in case you missed that, but yes it is that low when you're a graduate in the aerospace field. If you check this uk.jobted.com/salary/aerospace-engineer it says Junior Aerospace Engineer average salary is £25k
hey! i had a question.... is computer science necessary for pursuing aerospace ?
Not necessary but can help you understand the growing world of software and tech as I think all engineering disciplines in the future will require you to understand software
