Yeah right, multimedia or biz IT, my ass.

yul000 SG

I unfortunately got into my 3rd choice of study that is computer engineering in NTU. I dont know if its a good course or any future working prospects. I didnt expect i will get into this course..

Can any existing/graduate students give me thier views on this course?

thank you Very Happy

tough,tough,beri tough. Rolling Eyes

yul000 SG

tough in studying or in finding a job?

babymac13 SG

you can choose to be a programmer for life.
Mr. Green

just kidding....

fyi, you will be doing alot of programming work during your course of study.

Xcert SG

if U can graduate...finding a job is comparatively easier.

U better really like programming...and is really really really good at it. Laughing Mr. Green

yul000 SG

my god! its fully programming all the way like C++, java and all that! Dont we get to branch out to multimedia or biz IT?

798 SG

ur maths good or not?

cos there is tis data structure n algorithm, quite an advancement to c++.

n pray hard u r not taught by china prof.

hisoka SG

yes pray hard for that

Xcert SG

Biz IT is under NBS...Nanyang Business School.

multimedia?maybe the new school of design have?i dunno...

anyway...for multimedia or biz IT...U might as well go poly....

CE is more hardcore programming...C...java...assembly language...maths learn statistics...calculus...for a start.

finding job NOT easy, alot of my friend CE yr 4 now...none got job offers..the course is tough too. cos com engine too specialised liao, people rather go for EEE ones..cos they have both electronics skills and engineering which is a more potent combi then computer thingies

Xcert SG

my friend graduated from CE and found job quite easily leh...depends on heng suay lar...

anyway my point is...the learning is harder than the finding job part...

798 SG

i find those computer course, most likely will learn n forget totally the next sem. esp like micro p, it's really freaking me up!

BaByBoY SG

Xcert SG

threadstarter fainted after looking at our replies liao.... Laughing Mr. Green

ndmmxiaomayi SG

I almost fainted when looking at you guys' replies. I was looking through the course structure and considering which one to take up.

BrUtUs SG

com engineering is hell in ntu... its very useful when u get the cert but the process require alot of work... good luck...

798 SG

it's always the case every students having great expectation before entering uni, ended up feeling disappointed n miserable... Neutral

just remember u r not alone. Mr. Green
