How about water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology specialty?

The major of water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology is not so good, and the course is difficult and difficult to learn, which tests the professional ability very much. The most important point is the poor employment environment and hard work, so this major is not recommended. I am a student of Guilin University of Electronic Technology. I have a high school classmate who is majoring in water conservancy and hydropower. I majored in electrical engineering, and then we also exchanged some professional problems together. Let me analyze this major in detail.

0 1—— Personal feelings From the communication with my classmates and my understanding of this major, I think the major of water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology is really not very optimistic, and few people will be willing to choose this major. After all, the future employment environment will be in some hydropower stations and engineering stations, and the environment will be harsh and the work will be very hard.

Also, I think this major is more suitable for boys, but girls really don't recommend it, because it is dirty and heavy work, which is very hard. The only advantage of this major is that the salary is good, but the employment opportunities of this major are gradually decreasing. With the rapid development of the country, new majors are constantly emerging, and the demand for new talents is increasing. The talents in the water conservancy and hydropower industry tend to be saturated, and the number of recruits will decrease, so I don't recommend most people to choose this major.

If you want to study this major, you can choose Tsinghua, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan University, Xi University of Technology and other schools, and your employment will be much better.

02- Professional Introduction

The research field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology is closely related to our daily life, such as studying the causes of soil erosion by water flow and waves, finding out the causes of deformation of river banks and seaports, and studying the technology of building reservoirs, dams, flood dikes and other facilities on rivers and coasts to protect the surrounding ecological environment. Effectively ensuring the quality of various water conservancy and hydropower projects is inseparable from the investigation, design, management, implementation and supervision of water conservancy and hydropower professionals.

For example, the Three Gorges Project, which we are familiar with, can accumulate water resources, solve the difficulty of drinking water, and at the same time prevent floods and use hydropower to generate electricity. However, the whole development process needs the cooperation of countless water conservancy and hydropower professionals. For example, the chief engineer should make a comprehensive consideration to determine the feasibility of the project; The construction unit needs to ensure the smooth development of the project; The supervision unit needs to ensure the project quality. Water conservancy and hydropower engineering is a major to train all kinds of water conservancy and hydropower talents.

03— Specialized Courses The major courses of water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology are: engineering mechanics, hydraulics, river dynamics, geotechnical mechanics, engineering geology and hydrogeology, engineering surveying, engineering hydrology, engineering economics, building materials, reinforced concrete structures and steel structures. Main subjects: hydraulic engineering, civil engineering and environmental engineering. Core knowledge fields: water conservancy and hydropower project survey and planning, water conservancy and hydropower project design, water conservancy and hydropower project construction and management, and water conservancy and hydropower project operation management.

Many courses are very professional and engineering, which requires strong logic and ability to deal with engineering problems. Therefore, this major is not very good and is not recommended to most people.

04—— Employment Prospects After graduation, I mainly worked as a water conservancy and hydropower engineer, project manager, documenter, etc. Generally, there are: water conservancy and hydropower engineers, project managers, information workers, irrigation technicians, etc. Generally speaking, water and electricity are in high mountains and valleys, and the working environment is relatively bad. Hydropower projects are far away from cities, and the work is boring. Moreover, as a hydropower builder, holidays are basically not guaranteed, and staying at the construction site for a long time will really be unable to adapt to urban life. Therefore, it is not easy for most graduates majoring in water conservancy and hydropower engineering to find satisfactory and comfortable jobs.

05— Summary The above is my analysis of water conservancy and hydropower engineering technology specialty. This major is not easy to learn and difficult to learn. After graduation, the work will be harder and the employment opportunities will be smaller, so it is still not recommended to choose this major. If you really want to do hydropower work in the future, you can also challenge yourself. The salary is still very good.
