How strict are job posting degree requirements in this case

Im in UG crashing out over my future and was wondering if a job posting asked for “materials engineering” and I had a materials and nanoscience bachelors of science (not engineering accredited sadly), would I be allowed to apply? Let’s assume a professional engineering license is not required. Thanks

Also Canadian but if not then advice from anywhere is useful. Thanks

Any opinion on University of Waterloo's Materials and Nanosciences Program?

I recently switched into this program, but it doesn't seem to be very popular, so I haven't been able to find many opinions on how strong the degree is.

My main question is whether the fact that it's a science degree and NOT an engineering degree (like most materials science programs) affects job prospects. I'm a little concerned because I'd prefer not to go to graduate school, so I'm wondering how employable the degree is on its own.

Has anyone graduated from a similar program or have any insight into how it's viewed by employers? Thank!

Iphone 17 not charging

Last week my iphone 17 suddenly had this issue where it would charge slower than usual. I noticed because usually when I use it while charging, it would still charge faster than it got depleted but this time was different. However, it got worse and worse. Eventually it would take an hour for it to go from 6% to 12%.

Now its gotten bad to where it has stayed at 4% despite me leaving it there to charge the entire day without using it. When I check battery health and maximum capacity it says normal and 100% though. Its not that the phone doesn't detect a charger, it does, so idk what the hell is up with this piece of garbage lol.

Anyone know what's up with my phone? I'm probably going to book an appointment with apple but I'm just posting in case anyone has insight. Thanks.

Materials science non engineering major, debating on dropping course

Hello! Im a materials and nanosciences student from Canada. As someone who does NOT wants to pursue academia research and doing graduate school, I felt that if I wanted to land a job with a science degree I would need to take engineering classes as that would maybe “look” better.

Though it is learnt in labs and covered in some lectures, my degree doesnt have a specific course called “characterization of materials” like most engineering classes do. Because of this I got permission to take one in the nano engineering department, but it is very theoretical and I dont know if it’s for me. This course is not mandatory for my degree at all but I feel like im behind all the other materials science students with actual engineering degrees.

I dont know if I should keep it or not. Any advice on this would help.
