What if the College of your dreams accepts you, but the college you know you should go to does not?
I have been accepted into the school of my dreams which happens to be the best school for engineering in the country. However, it costs significantly more than my second-choice school -almost three times more- However, my second-choice school, which is the one that my family can afford, did not accept me into the engineering major. While I can attempt to appeal the decision, I am not sure if there will be a point. Should I be excited that I got into my first choice school, and wory about the price later, or should I try to get into the college that my family can afford. #college #engineering #financial-services

Why did you become an engineer?
I am a civil engineering student, but I would be grateful for an answer from other fields of engineering as well. What made you choose engineering, and what made you decide to stick onto it throughout college and even after college? What was your terribly strong and persistent reason that made you held onto engineering for so long, without quitting at all? I am curious :) #engineering #career #aftercollege

How to improve my CV as a computer Engineering student?
I'm a third year engineering student, and I studied different courses like (java, data structure, networking, mobile apps, AI, micro, electronics, and other topics ), but the issue is that when I want to apply for an internship or a research program especially internationally I have nothing to support my CV or personal statement just the projects I did in these courses which are not complex and my high GPA. Also, I always study online courses and try to improve my skills, but now at this time I feel it's not enough, so what kind of programs or activities should I participate in to improve ? #computer-engineering #computer-software #computer-hardware #artificial-intelligence #career-counseling #career-development #career-path #career-choice #engineering #programming #computer-programming #computer-networking

What are some good ways for high school students to gain experience?
I did not have a lot of experience outside of school and volunteering when I started at university, and my brothers are both looking as they could be in the same boat as I was. I have given them a couple of suggestions from things that I learned, however, is there anything that anyone would suggestion for their fields specifically? One wishes to be an engineer (and a swim coach), the other a game designer. Thank you! #high-school #experience #volunteering #engineering #game-design #sports #coaching #swimming
How do I get make myself a competitive candidate for mechanical engineering in MIT?
I am currently a junior in high school and I am wondering what I need to do to help me gain an advantage getting into MIT. I am pulled to MIT because it is the top engineering school in the US and I am very passionate about mechanical engineering. Ever since I was little, I was rigorously train in mathematics and I am a musician and I love being creative. I have won the AMC at my school, gotten top grades in math, winning acknowledgement from my teachers, and I have made various competitive band orchestras. I recently gained an internship at GE but I don't know if this is enough and I want to know what I can do more. #college #college-admissions #mit #mechanical-engineering #engineering

Would it be advisable to receive an electrical engineering major and get certified in teaching?
I would like to major in electrical engineering and get certified to teach advanced high school math or physics. Is that too many credits to complete in 4 years? I was also considering double majoring in electrical engineering and mathematics. In addition, I wanted to get certified in teaching math or physics for high schoolers. Would that be do-able in 5 years? I have around 40 college credit hours from high school. #engineering #teaching #mathematics #double-major #electrical-engineering
