Mechanical Engineering

Both are definitely cool, but I would say electrical engineering is cooler. My definition of cool here is the ability to use your EE (electrical engineering) skills to build things yourself, with your own two hands. Things like robots, sensors, drones, etc., really work off of technology that uses electricity. These are things that you can build in your room, in a reasonable amount of time, and with a practical amount of money. Think also of phones, computers, electric cars, etc. All that really cool tech that has everyone excited? It's all built off of electrical phenomena. Mechanical is cool too (I'm studying mechanical engineering in a college); it teaches you about how things move and break (among other things) but I haven't used that knowledge in my projects as much as my electrical and computer engineering skills.
