Question/Discussion: How much does it matter which university you study at?
Hey everyone. So in today's virtual coffee, I mentioned that I'm looking to pursue a MSc degree, but the options for fundings/programs are not always that easily available, given one's personal background and resume, you might be needing to go for whatever chance that gets you closer. From your experience, how much does the ranking/reputation of a university or the country you're studying at matter? *Specifically Europe.* And how does that affect one's chance of getting into industry or doing PhD after MSc?

@Sai nihal Kunchakurthy You must be talking about TUM since they have started taking fees from this winter semester onwards... However, if you look at other public unis like Uni of Stuttgart, FH Aachen or Bremen Hochscule, they are still tuition free.

@Sai nihal Kunchakurthy Always Welcome brother!🙂
Weekly Virtual Meeting - Now on Mondays
Hi everyone! @Deleted and I thought it would be a better idea to merge both online meetings and have only one under the week (every Monday at 7 pm CET). Looking forward to seeing you all there! 😌 Make sure you save the updated time to your Google calendar. 🙌

@Henrique Oliveira That`s literally the only thing that I am good at besides finding opportunities after it`s too late😐

@Chris Ngigi You are right, I believe. And I think business cards are still there, it`s just that as you said, LinkedIn has played a great role. Being friendly on that platform alone helped me find a couple of favors from people and I did not even ask for them (Actually, I didn`t even know if that`s even a thing).

Hi everyone. Name`s Zayd. Completed my undergraduation in Aerospace Engineering two years ago and have since worked as a Programmer Analyst for almost a year and half. Will soon be pursuing my Masters in TU Delft. I have always been into understanding the physics behind Fluid Dynamics and it is really great to be a part of this community, thanks to its creator, Dr. Mohamed. Let`s learn together and apply the knowledge to create sustainable technology solutions with the power of CFD.

@Bona Prakasa Welcome Mr. Prakasa. Out of curiosity, what type of engineering/work do petroleum engineers venture on and how? I have heard about PEs a lot but never got the opportunity to talk with a real one.
Ansys Fluent : Still Relevant or Time to Jump Ship?
Hello dear community, I have a rather divisive question here. We know how Ansys has revolutionized the concept of simulation and made it accessible to a global community of budding engineers. Ansys FLUENT is still considered an engineering standard in CFD in engineering universities around the world and is a very powerful tool with enough room to modify the code to your benefit, the applications being boundless. However, with the rise of competitors like Siemens Star CCM+, Hyperworks, Dassault Simulia XFlow, Cadence etc, Ansys clearly has enough competitors with some interesting features compared to it's CFD portfolio. My question here is: Is Ansys FLUENT/CFD Portfolio still relevant in an era of increasing competition with arguably better features or is it wise to learn other commercial softwares too apart from FLUENT also as a means to improve one's standing in the industry? I would be interested to see your views!! Thank you!!

Depending on the job role one is looking for, I would say that it is pretty based. It`s just like comparing programming languages. 70-80% of people that I have met have told me that Python is the most common language used in aerospace industry, however for some, C++ comes under the "old is gold" category. But yes, Python does open a lot of job opportnities than others. I do not think that it is time for Ansys Fluent to go. There is still so much we can use it for, for example, simulating aeroelasticity effect on a wing and being able to test under different conditions. I would say we should be familiar with the basic concepts that these commercial software work with, i.e, CFD and once we start working on a project that require a certain feature, we can choose accordingly.

@Mohamed Sayed I have actually tried learning ANSYS in a week but I just get too lost regarding what exactly to learn and for what purpose. Every company works on different projects and most of them have different ways of doing things. I don`t know what to work on basically even though I want to. That`s the problem
