i av a masters in mechanical eng, i work in an engineering firm, and wud love to acquire more skills (in the computer world).

pls can an experienced person tell me which course and training that wud be best for me?

one dat will take me to the next level,

regards,

If you like Programming this post might make a lot of sense https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-318551.0.html

Femi thanks 4 d info, i really dont like programming, sounds boring, lol, any other clues? wud love sumthing dat connects engineering,

if you find programming boring, then its not going to be really interesting.

programming involves some mathematics - they are actually related - so i wonder why a mech engr finds it boring

3D Design might stimulate your engineering flair.You get to work on models, simulations e.t.c

i think you should go and learn 3d design with maya or 3dmax

Ok, 3D Design sounds interesting,

femu, wud u be so kind to educate me more on what 3d design entails?, like you did for programming, wud appreciate

veetubes, thanx, any info?

aphoe, pls wonder,

Hi,

Its nice to note you picked interest. I advise that first buy a PC then learn to play with it until you master it fully as school wont just teach you some things.

yea, i already av a lappy and av mastered it wella, just waiting 4 ma next move,

3D software are used for different purposes such as animations, movie effects, object modeling and simulation. The aspect of 3D that i think might be related to ur field should be modeling and simulation.
Some of the equations you're used to as an engineer are used in simulation.
U can simulate different environments i.e. stress test a bridge or the impact of an object on another or explosions.This is just over simplifying the power of 3D tools they can be used for all sought of things.
U will have to contact me for a walkthrough

Too bad you hate programing, i woulda said why not try robotics, a fusion of engr + comp sci. You could do automated slide door, auto water pumps etc

@poster ,hw can u have a first degree in engineering and can't program?

@ mcguru, thanks , that sounds pretty cool, more info please,

@ femu, will contact u, thanks

@ solomonope, ur mouth too wide, go 2 a tailor to get it stitched, u dont know wat i read in my 1st degree,
