What to do as an aspiring engineer with no experience or knowledge????

Hello. I am a 17-year-old in Laredo, and I hope to major in a branch of engineering in the future. Despite not having experience, would it be best to seek out internships to gain experience? If so, what are my options in Laredo or online? I've tried looking but I'm struggling with it as most jobs are looking for college undergraduates/graduates. My dad is a mechanic, so would it be a good start to work with him? If so, how should I prepare? My dad is a busy man and is less interested in taking the time to show me the ropes. What online resources would be a good start to understanding what it's like to work as a mechanic/auto diagnostics so that I can be less of a hindrance and more of a valuable asset? Thank you!

Communication Technology vs Electrical Engineering?

As a freshman in college, I have a GPA of 3.5 and got mostly B's in math. I have experience with technology (like basic coding) but not engineering in high school. Two majors at my school are Communication Technology (CT) and Electrical Engineering (EE). CT contains classes in digital media production, coding, business, and telephones/electricity. EE contains topics like physics, math, science, and making electronics. The reason why I'm interested in these two is I want a good paying job where I can make enough money to travel, yet where I can pursue my interests in creating stuff. I've always felt intimidated by engineering, because you do alott of math. Yet, I heard you can become a theatre engineer and acoustics or sound engineer! I like that there's so much careers you can do in CT but Idk many people with this career. Anyone have advice? Can I enter EE without any experience? Can CT be good?

Can you tell me about engineering and or psychology?

I'm stuck between the two at the moment and I'm struggling to choose which one I want to do, on one hand I like engineering and the design aspect of it. But on the other hand I'm very interested in psychology, I want to help people. Is there any way my interests can branch off to maybe something like art therapy? Or is there a way I can learn more about the fields to make my final decision?
