Help Me Decide My Major

<p>I'm having trouble deciding between these 3 majors:</p>

<p>Aerospace
Civil
Mechanical</p>

<p>I want some opinions as to which you do/would do, why, and why not the others. I'm not looking for a "do what suits you best" answer, I just want to hear your opinions. Background info: Going to the University of Texas at Austin. I took Calculus BC as a senior and it was a breeze, I am almost positive I got the AP credit. So I am good at math, however I don't feel that I am CREATIVE with math, I just get it done. (somebody told me that may be an issue with aerospace is why I'm listing it)</p>

<p>You don’t need to be creative with math.</p>

<p>IMO, Mechanical is probably the best choice out of those 3 if you are not dead set on something. I say this because ME is the most versatile after getting your degree. So, unless you have your heart in structures or really love planes I would go with ME.</p>

<p>*** does creative with math mean? there is no creativity with math, only solutions.</p>

<p>If you want the broadest degree I’d go with mechanical. I hear civil isn’t hiring well right now and aerospace jobs depend heavily on government funding.</p>

<p>There is definitely some room for creativity in math, but you won’t need much/any to get an undergraduate degree.</p>

<p>Personally, I would do mechanical because it is more generic than aerospace.</p>

<p>only do aero if you are sure you want to specialize in aero. i’m one of those strange people majoring in AE and planning on going to law school.</p>

<p>You could get a civil job anywhere, geographically speaking. Less true for ME, and very much less true for AE, who will get jobs w/aerospace companies usually.</p>

<p>Mech eng is the most broadly applicable. I’d do that.</p>
