View Full Version : What career are you going into?
I was just wondering what kind of careers people want to go into? I know I'm planning on joining the Navy.

Please see this thread.
the other thread os more for mentors who already have a job, I think he's asking Students what they want to go into.
Im planning on going into Mechanical Engineering, and possibly Doing Prosthetic's.
I would like to attend The University of Waterloo (Waterloo Regional is held there).

Yes I'm asking students. And I'm not a he :)
Wow thats great.
I'm planning on becoming a Software Engineer and attending Michigan Tech for my bachelors, then going to Carnegie-Mellon for my Masters.

Good for you!
I certainly plan to work with Software.
If it will be low level OS Kernel work, or high level Web Applications (or anything in between) I honestly don't know yet, I haven't done enough of each to see what I enjoy the most.

I'm planning to end up with a Master's in Library Sciences, so I can become one of Boeing's Librarians. (Yes, they exist. I've met a couple.)

That's very cool. And I never knew about them.

I plan on going to the University of South Carolina for Electrical Engineering and then pursuing a career as a Integration Engineer for maybe Boeing or BMW or another company heavy in automation.

I'm about to be a junior in Electrical Engineering at UC Davis. I'd like to get into something obviously either with robots, making some circuits, or helping make some new products I've dreamed of helping engineer like internet connected appliances, and electric car wireless charging solutions for home garages and such. I want to help design the house of the future. I imagine a fridge where whatever you insert gets scanned and weighed and tallied instantly to an electronic list like a Google doc which you can check at the grocery store to see if it's been used or is gone from your fridge and needs re-purchased or if it's expired. Stuff like that.

I'm going to Kettering, planned EE.
I'm Co-Oping with Chrysler, in Powertrain controls. I like working with control system hardware and software, and other low-level software (C mostly, although I do like algorithm programming in LV or Simulink). I don't start until July, but I will be working at the Tech Center, which is also where 33's shop is, and I'll be at work during build season.

I'm going into mechanical engineering, possibly with a concentration in CAD or manufacturing, at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Definitely looking forward to college. Do we need to have a summer break? Shouldn't it just go "robotics season, one week off, college with machine shops and fun classes"?

Thats cool. Yeah the robotics season goes by way too fast, its seems like just yesterday we were building the 2011 robot.....Ah memories.

"CAD" in itself is just a tool. Striving to be very good at CAD is definitely something mechanical design engineers should all do. However, it is still just one of many tools a mechanical engineer will need to master to become proficient.
At the end of the day, engineering is all about problem solving. As an engineering student you should constantly work to improve your problem solving ability by gaining new skills and knowledge for your own "tool belt".

Oh, agreed. Basically, it would mean that I take all the standard engineering courses, and a couple of extra ones in advanced CAD functions.
