Automation and Instrumentation tech vs Mining Engineering tech
I have a degree in Geology from a good uni in Ontario, Canada. Unfortunately, because of pressing family issues that included deaths and drug overdoses, I was unable to do very well in Geology classes with barely passes in my 3rd and 4th years. Also, I did not enjoy it tbh. Fast forward, I have admissions from a college for two years programs in either Automation/Instrumentation tech or Mining Engineering Tech. My Geology degree will obviously give me the upper-hand if I were to go for Mining Engineering, however, I am equally interested in Automation/Instrumentation tech.
Anyone who is in either programs/field to provide me with insight on the difficulty in job prospects in Canada. I will be grateful for every insight by the community on here.
