Hello! I hope everyone reading this is doing well. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Connecticut studying Biomedical Engineering. I am planning my future schedules and want advice in choosing a concentration and minor. My school requires BME majors to select a concentration. I am torn between the two concentrations; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology (first conc.) and Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation (second conc.). I am also looking into minoring in Electronics and Systems, and most of the courses required to complete this minor overlap with the Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation concentration. Electronics and systems has been something that I have been interested in for a while, so this pair is calling out to me the most as of late. This past summer, I participated in a practicum where I explored both bio-signals and biomechanics. During this practicum, I was able to build a 3D printed robotic hand while investigating various methods of body-machine interfacing for prosthetic control. Most of the work I focused on was working with flex sensors (which we made) and making things like an instrumentation amplifier, an active band pass, and full rectifier, which were used to make an electromyograph. This experience reignited my passions and curiosity for both biomechanics and bio-signals. This is why I am torn between both concentrations, and which to pair with minor I’m interested in. So, the options I have made for myself are; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology concentration paired with Electronics & Systems major OR Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation paired with the Electronics & Systems major. I am also wondering on which pair would be the most beneficial for me in industry post-graduation. Any advice helps. Thank you in advance!

Any Advice?

What part of science should I focus on if I want to make cures for diseases? What major is best for my goal?

I know I want to be in some field of chemistry and biology, but I am not sure which one aligns best with my goals.

What kind of research and or internship opportunities are open for Biology Premedical majors?

I’m a high school senior from Massachusetts moving to Tallahassee Florida to attend FAMU for college. Although there are many resources on campus, I’m wondering what the major means more over for research opportunities as well as internships and eventually working.

What sort of advice would you give to someone who is looking to work with sick children if that person is very sensitive; regardless of that weakness, they have a strong passion and love for kids and that’s the only career they see themselves with for the long term?

For context this person wants to pursue a doctorate in the field.

What does a career as a folklorist look like?

I'm really interested in the field, but it looks like the majority of jobs are academic, and I'm not sure if I'm interested in those. Are there other jobs, or any jobs that lean heavily on folklore but aren't necessarily designated as folklore-based?

What career field should I pursue if I plan on majoring in psychology, with a music minor?

This fall, I will be starting college! I know that I want to one day work in the mental health field with children, but I’m not sure exactly what job would give me everything I’m looking for. I also have a passion for music. Is it possible to combine the two or should I pursue one over the other?

How do you think the field of data science is going to be impacted by AI and machine learning??

Data scientists already use AI and machine learning to build models, but how is using AI to code and conduct analyses going to impact the field?
