Mechanical and electronic engineering is actually an embarrassing comprehensive major, because mechanical design is not as deep as mechanical design and automation, and electrical design is not as good as electrical and electronic major, but it does combine the basic knowledge of the two, so it has greater freedom of choice in future employment, so the employment scope of this major is very wide, mainly depending on the company distribution when you join the company. From the perspective of basic knowledge reserve, it can be mechanical and electronic.
In other words, this major has broad employment prospects, so don't worry too much about the employment problem. The manufacturing industry has the highest employment rate, and none of them. So, congratulations, you have a good living space in the future.
But don't be too happy. Just because you can survive doesn't mean you will live well. After all, living and living well are two concepts, and they are worlds apart. Beggars can live, and so can Bill Gates.
According to reliable statistics, after five years, the salary growth rate of manufacturing industry is the slowest among the top ten employment industries. Which ten majors can you check, so I won't go into details. Of course, this refers to the average salary.
There is a quip in Zhihu: It's good to be a mechanic, and it works fast, and the salary will rise every year. As long as you have patience for a few years, your salary is almost the same as that of a new employee in the IT industry.
Of course, this is a ridiculous remark, but there is such an embarrassment. Manufacturing is an industry with heavy assets, large investment, low return and long cycle. The profit margin has been as low as the heel level, and the boss didn't eat the pot. How to ensure that your bowl is full?
Of course, there are exceptions to everything, and many companies live well. Not every manufacturing enterprise is like this, such as Huawei. So Ma Yun made a particularly shameless remark, "It's not that the manufacturing industry is dying, it's that your company is dying."
In fact, the so-called Internet economy or virtual economy advocated by Ma Yun in recent years does not conflict with the real economy, but two stages of product commercialization. The real economy solves the manufacturing of products and the Internet solves the sales of products, but the Internet has changed the traditional sales model and improved the sales efficiency. Those who oppose the real economy and the internet virtual economy just have ulterior motives.
Because this kind of opposing public opinion can guide the flow of private hot money and the bias of government policies, it is this kind of mistake that has contributed to the difficulty of reducing the source of funds in the real economy to a certain extent, thus giving more and better excuses to so-called Internet thinkers who are afraid of chaos in the world.
