Hi guys i don't know what career i should do. I love computers i don't really like programmation. I also like rocket science a lot. I don't really know what career is called the people who are designing the gpu/cpu architecture and if it is actually interesting. 

I don't know if i should do:

Propulsion engineer 

Eletrical engineer 

Hardware engineer 

 

Thanks for letting your thoughts about all this career possibilites 

 

Thanks for help

This is just my personal thought, but I think as an electrical engineer, it might be easier for you to find a job almost anywhere.

Just a quick search for my city (Montreal) reveal there's at least 226 job opening for Electrical, only 2 for Propulsion and 148 for Hardware 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3700x / GPU: Asus Radeon RX 6750XT OC 12GB RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x16GB DDR4-3200
MOBO: MSI B450m Gaming Plus NVME: Corsair MP510 240GB / Case: TT Core v21 PSU: Seasonic 750W / OS: Bazzite

If you're smart enough for it, do Electrical Engineering. Loads of great jobs you can get with that.

Do they will and actually need eletrical engineers at spacex nasa esa?

There are many fields that hire electrical engineers, everything that has a circuit in it needs an electrical engineer to design it. 

 

Make sure you have have a good understanding of math and physics. Any engineering degree will definitely require those.

Math and Physics were the two subjects I was terrible at and couldn't understand any calculations :(

I supose pretty bad, because only knowing grade 1 maths in university, isnt really helpful. Lets hope my "assistant" in the future will be helpful... so i can repeat the only subject i failed at... MATHS!

Maths is very Personnal and that's mostly why there aren't that many good teachers. Most don't understand the subjectivity of the matter, telling you maths can't lie or whatever, when it's fundamentally and only about what path you, as a human being, would choose to get from point A to point B.

If you want to be an engineer, you'll need to love maths and physics. It really depends what you like to do. Got some friends from electrical engineering that makes programs for the distribution of electricity to making pcb for aircrafts. So, I think it's better for you to get in that field.

Rocket science is pretty awesome! I'm studying Aerospace Engineering, the dream is SpaceX, I'm also a computer enthusiast (why I'm here) but if you really like computers I'd say Electrical like everyone else has said. Some schools will let you concentrate on what you really like to do in that field as well. For example a friend of mine studying Electrical is concentrated on cpu architecture or something like that. Best of luck to you!
