i want YOU to pick me a minor/specialisation
>industry 4.0 & iot
>signal processing and embedded systems
>cybersecurity
>kms?
following a networking/cloud major. most topics covered in cybersec will be a rehash, according to one professor.
pick one!!!

you should pick whatever will be the most employable

>>105644173
haven't looked for a job yet, cybersec seems like it would sit best in a cv even if i probably won't learn shit

>>105644096 (OP)
>industry 4.0 & iot
Bullshit and buzzwords.
>signal processing and embedded systems
Actually interesting and teaches you real skills. There ia significant risk of being outsourced to a cheaper country though.
>cybersecurity
Could be interesting if the curriculum includes stuff like malware reverse engineering, otherwise it's a waste of time.
>networking/cloud major
You fucked up by picking a meme degree.

>haven't looked for a job yet
you really should be + getting internships if you haven't already because the tech job market is tough and will only get tougher. find out which of those gets the most job openings or talk to people in the industry and see what they think. 4.0 and iot is just buzzword shit so definitely don't go into that though
there's a reason this board has an employed tech workers general and an unemployed tech workers general

First off: >>>/sci/scg and read the FAQ
>signal processing and embedded systems
Job market is a bit limited now but the niche is open for people at a raging power level.

thanks guys, i'll read more about the signal processing one and look for an internship
more answers are welcome

>50% bullshit
>real job
>100% bullshit
>kill yourself
hope that clears it up

>>105644096 (OP)
>>signal processing and embedded systems
There'll always be a need for that. CS might have some use but it's a brainlet option and iot is a buzzword.

>>105644096 (OP)
I did a lot of job regarding security of systems(such as networks, servers and codebases) and unless you do exactly the same, cybsec means nothing. A cybersecurity special could be your office IT guy who updates Karen's laptop or do an antivirus scan when Joe visited a porn website during working hours.

So, unless you work as a security researcher, I would advise to stay away from it. There are a lot of punks in this sector.

>>105644096 (OP)
i'd choose signal processing if you enjoy mathematics

>>105644096 (OP)
signal processing and embedded systems
others a bit meme-y desu

>>105644096 (OP)
good luck, my dude.

>>105644319
>networking and cloud is a meme
tell me it aint so

thanks to everyone, i wasn't expecting serious answers. i'll go with the signal processing
would give you (You)s if it weren't for the shit spam check

cybersecurity. there will always be new tech old tech and code. they will always be broken or become broken. you’ll be need to secure these broken tech become vulnerable to exploits. cybersecurity will never not be needed but yeah it is oversaturated with morons who don’t know anything about cybersecurity. so do it anon, make us proud and good luck

i want ASUKA to punch me in the face a lot with all of her strength and then passionately kiss me all over

>>105644096 (OP)
>pick thing for me
dont bother picking a minor in your field.

>>105650401
i'd pick a minor alright

>>105644096 (OP)
Everything will be replaced by AI except Power generation. Get the fuck in while you still can. EE is back my boy.

We do comfy too here.
Anyways, I did embedded and DSP stuff when DSP56300 was hot. That is a while ago but the skills aremain in demand, in particular in communications stuff, particularly mobile phone tech, and also in radar tech. Defence spendings are going up so expect a lot of defence tech DSP stuff.

If you want to try your hands on this and also build a portfolio, you can add more DSP stuff to /ham/ radio tech. Most digital modes are meh or bleh except from the latest modes. It kind of helps that the waveform designer sports a Nobel Prize. See >>>/diy/ham for info, a library, and a FAQ.
