Can I do chemical engineering without A-Level Physics?
Yes. In the UK the number of places offering chemical engineering has expanded and take an increased diversity of students at entry. I have known several students who took Maths Chemistry and Biology because of an earlier idea that they would go into medicine, and these may be attracted to departments who include biological options. Some universities run classes in physics for such students.Fortunately, you do not need much of what is commonly taught in A level physics such as astronomy, relativity, optics, but will need to get to grips with energy and mechanics. However, there is some catching-up to do.Entry will of course depend on your grades in the other subjects and the individual department’s policy and practice.
Can I study civil engineering without high school physics? I am good in math and science.
First of all R u really interested in Civil engineeringIf u good math or any subject is doesn't mean you are try this because After school everyone face this problem but if u choose any subject or any engineering -First , Meet the people who are Worked as engineerThere is Not any subject can decide your Future Or interest .Try to attend seminar on carrierIf u Set you ready for civil engineering please choose Right college for studying because in this field practicals are very importantMy point of view is Choose You INTEREST Rather than ur Marks on specific subject.
Is high school physics necessary for biomedical engineering?
Probably you can technically get into universities for biomedical engineering without AP/IB physics, yes. Is it another nice thing to know, though? Yes, because physics will follow you throughout BME.I'm a BME major and had to take a freshman physiology class. Yeah, it's a bio class, but as that professor said, "there is no biology without physics and chemistry". I had to know a little electromagnetism to understand neuron function, some thermodynamics for thermoregulation of organisms, and fluid mechanics for blood flow (saved me on a final exam question I didn't remember off the top of my head but could reason out due to fluid mechanics). Well, we didn't have to perfectly know it before the class because we were taught the little we needed, but it was definitely an advantage to already know it. Thanks, second year of high school physics where I learned all that! Keep in mind that this was just freshman physiology, so expect more complicated physics coming as you take higher level biology courses. For example, a professor at my college is doing research on mechanical stretches related to inducing cellular suicide in cancer cells - interesting physics in biology, right?And that ignores the fact that you'll have to take physics classes in college. I had to take calculus based mechanics last semester and will have to take electromagnetism this upcoming semester. Add my other requirement of statics, a standard mechanical engineering class based on the forces on still things, and that's basically a third physics class.Why so much physics? Because you'll likely use it. So while you may not love high school physics, you will need to know it. So yes, it is important.
Can I study mechanical engineering without high school physics?
I am. I never took Calculus in high school either.It wasn’t a huge disadvantage; most of what you learn in high school physics and math courses you cover in a few weeks in your university studies. It was a hard few weeks, to be sure, but you learn quickly and catch up in no time. By now, halfway through, there isn’t any real way to tell between those who have and haven’t had high school coursework in engineering.The real advantage is in things like CAD, where you can learn the engineering diction and get straight into harder work, without having to work to catch up.With all that said, I would recommend you do as much engineering-related coursework as you can, to be sure you start the right degree; you’ll have a good idea if you want to do mechanical engineering, civil engineering, chemical engineering, or software engineering.Best of luck in your educational goals!
Love physics, hate chemistry, can i still take engineering?
I love physics very much, from its theory to its math and everything about physics! (well, maybe not the electricity part). But i seriously hate chemistry!! All the chemical equations and such drive me mad. The problem is, i'm thinking of taking a mechanical engineering degree without taking Chemistry as an A Levels subject. Is it doable? I mean, is Chemistry a prerequisite for mechanical engineering? Oh by the way, do i need to learn stuffs like electricity or electronics thingy majingy for mechanical engineering??
Choosing a major: Chemical Engineering or Environmental engineering?
environmental engineering and chemical engineering are closely related fields. But there are a few differences. EnviEngg deals with a larger view of the world. It deals not only with chemistry and physics, but also largely on the disciplines of the biological sciences especially ecology and public health. I suggest you take ChemEngg as an undergraduate course because of its more fundamental nature, relying solely on chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Then take a master's degree in EnviEngg, where you will be exposed to more interdisciplinary analysis and interpretations. Principles studied in ChemEngg will greatly prepare you for the rigors of EnviEngg.
Can I study software engineering without physics and chemistry?
You COULD skip them… But you will be much less likely to get in unless you can demonstrate some VERY good facility with mathematics. Schools like to see good foundations in many potential fields of study (frequently, the more the better).The benefit you get from physics is that it is similar to programming. You get to identify some problem (in high school it is usually a description of some physical event), then extract from that (or identify the mathematical description that matches it) and use that to predict a result (in class it is called the “answer”, but in reality it is a prediction).You do the same thing when programming. You take a given problem (usually vaguely specified) with the goal of getting an “answer” (which is also usually vaguely specified). The “answer” in programming is the program. The answer in many physics problems is “the formula” rather than the result of using the formula. The “forumla” is equivalent to the program.Chemistry is much more complex - but involves physics to a MUCH higher degree. Historically, chemistry has been treated more like cooking… mix these things together and “poof” you get that thing… But exactly HOW and HOW MUCH you mix is still a “formula”. It still calls for the same problem solving that physics does.The advantage of taking both is that after learning them you can be more flexible in how you approach a situation. When combined with understanding the mathematics used then all three subjects begin to make more sense.The same applies to biology. Biologists are beginning to realize that mathematical descriptions are appearing everywhere. Fibonacci numbers show up in flowers, organization of leaves on trees... WHY they show up is still not known for sure - just that they do.
Which branch in engineering is without physics?
There are no “branches” of engineering without physics. It is a question of “how much physics”.In most Universities/Institutions (all that I know) you study a combination of subjects in the first year, irrespective what your Stream/Specialization/Major. You study the basic sciences like Physics and Chemistry and you are introduced to the all streams of Engineering. You can expect to study Mathematics for a couple of Semesters at the minimum. You will study Mechanics, which is a lot like the Newtonian Physics of 10+2 standard.Beginning from your second year, you will begin to study subjects specific to your major. But even at this stage, you will have subjects that are common to some other streams. For example, Computer Engg, Electronics Engg, and Electrical Engg Majors, all will study basic Digital Electronics.Having said this, there are some streams that I believe will have a lot of subjects that “appear like Physics” to you. If you are not comfortable with Physics, avoid Civil and Mechanical Engineering.
Hate Physics, Love Math, Should I major in engineering?
Engineering is not for you. Physics should come first.
Can someone do engineering without physics?
engineering sales!software engineeringengineering draftingit’s possible to do electronic engineering, completely focused on logic, but this is a foolish constraintcould also do industrial engineering, i.e. design the floor plan of an industrial facility, and manage the project. Again a risk of foolishness…if you are somehow pathetically incompetent at some engineering aspect, just let someone else work on those problems. Just make sure you can identify and adjudicate them.
