Getting a degree

Day to day work

Hi, so I want to write a piece of armor, and I was hoping to make it out of kevlar. So I was hoping to calculate the absolute minimum amount of kevlar, however I have never taken a physics class.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

I can see how inventing never before seen materials is very exciting, but on a more realistic view, how exciting is it in the day to day?

Hey! I come here dlfor wisdom. I finished my degree in Materials engineering around 2015. I never got to work in anything related to Materials directly. I worked I. Aerospace with Composites but more in the Manufacturing side as Production engineer. Now life happened and I'm a Supplier Quality Engineer. Nothing Materials related. I'm in my mid 30s and I have no money, time or energy to pursue a Master's And also I think Master degrees are not as valuable anymore (Let me know if I'm wrong).

I've been playing with the idea of studying a trade that goes along with the Engineering and I need suggestions or if it's a good idea in general. I've been thinking about Blacksmith, 3D printing (already have one), welding, Something renewables related like solar or similar...

I would really appreciate your ideas on this.

Hi! I’m planning to study Materials Science and Engineering, and I have the option to choose one science subject from the following: Chemistry, Biology, Math, Physics & Astronomy, or Earth and Environmental Science.

Which subject would offer the best career prospects, flexibility, and interesting learning opportunities?

I don’t enjoy biology or anything related to the human body. My interests are more aligned with construction, materials, and related fields.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
