Just graduated, seeking guidance
Thread Content
I have just graduated with a degree in Mechatronic Engineering, and I am familiar with software such as CAD. By chance, I ended up at an MVR production design company; I’m looking for advice on how to get started working there quickly. I always feel I lack knowledge in chemical engineering
First, follow someone else’s drawing, treating each line as if it were a mountain, and then gradually fill in the details; one must be proficient in heat transfer
You simply create a model based on others’ design dimensions and use it to guide production; as for why it is designed to be that large, that relates to the heat transfer aspects in chemical engineering. For now, it’s not necessary for you to understand this yet; focus on doing your own job well first
Thanks for the advice! I am currently working on equipment drawing. Want to pursue a career in craftsmanship
Process direction? There’s a lot to learn: the properties of media and thermodynamic constants, as well as concepts like mass, heat, and momentum transfer along with reaction processes – it’s quite complex
Learn whatever one is not good at; take the initiative to ask supervisors for tasks and to put pressure on oneself in order to stimulate internal motivation, tackle difficulties, and mastering technology is actually quite simple. I never understood why, when starting work and entering society, one has to learn from the experience of mentors or those who are more experienced. It was only after seeing a worker using a ruler to draw lines that I realized that rules are necessary; every industry has its own set of rules. Starting work is like crossing a river; you don’t know how deep it is, but it becomes much simpler if you can see those who have crossed or feel the stones in the river.
First, go to the project site for 3 months. Spending a year in the office is not as good as spending a month on-site.
That makes sense; it makes me feel much better. It’s always difficult to figure out these issues right after graduating
Learn more*, seek advice often, and make friends with those you get along well with.
