I need help for my future?
I am in 7th grade, and I am trying to find what I want to do for my future job but I am unsure because there are many options! I like technology, designing things, and I also like building things kind of like engineering are there any things that could let me do all of those and that would also help me get into a good school?
How would job shadowing go for an aspiring electrical engineer?
I noticed that job shadowing in fields such as teaching, medical and hospital fields seem to be accessible to students in my region, but I find it harder to find shadowing opportunities for electrical engineering. I'm guessing because of the safety limitations, but I'm curious as to how this would be possible. I'm looking to get into shadowing a professional in this.
Tips/advice for high school student wanting to pursue engineering?
I’ve always had an interest in science and have decided I want to go into engineering in college, specifically majoring in MechE. As someone who is taking a year ahead my grade in math but is not specifically very good nor bad at it, is it unrealistic for me to want to pursue engineering? I can work very hard when I need to, especially for things I’m passionate about, so should I reconsider engineering. My ultimate goal is to working the motorsports field as a design engineer and I would seriously do anything to get there. I understand and learn programs very quickly and am relatively proficient with a CAD program my school provides, and would love to know other ways to get involved with CAD and engineering as a junior year high school student. I am also planning to take AP physics next year but am in Pre-Calculus this year, so I was wondering which AP physics course I should take with my current math knowledge.
How do I start to get into motorsports engineering?
what pathway should I take?
Is the job aerospace engineering very limited in job opportunities?
I am a middle schooler in 8th grade and I was wondering if the career aerospace engineering is actually very limited in job opportunities. I’m very interested in engineering and physics and I was wondering what are some good classes to get into to study in university to prepare for this career. Are there any other jobs so I could get some experience if I do end up getting an opportunity in the future.
If I want to be an aerospace engineer or a physicist is it worth it to get two bachelor's degrees (one in physics and one in engineering) Or would it be better to get one bachelor's degree and one graduate degree??
I am a sophomore in college at a liberal arts school that has the option of a 3+2 dual degree engineering program.
What types of options do i have to start my engineering career as a highschooler ?
I am looking to become an engineer, but I'm still only in high school,l and I don't know what type of path I should take, so if it's a college degree or an internship I still don't know much.
