Is Civil Engineering a career that gets boring after doing it for a long time?
Do you get burnt out on doing the same work/things over and over?
Which careers would be a good fit for someone analytical, problem-solving, people-oriented & creative ?
Hi all, I'm no longer a student; I've studied veterinary medicine, an additional Master's in Business Management, and subsequently have gained work experience in pharmaceutical research (consisted a lot of project coordination & management). I've never really known what a good career would be for me and I'm not so sure anymore about the research industry, a.o. due to required niche expertises (which I don't have), and due to having to focus on such specific and narrow things. Over the years I managed to pinpoint what I like in a job a bit more. These are mainly: - Analytical thinking, solving problems or improving situations. (People haven't always appreciated me challenging situations or trying to think of better ways to do something, since that was never my responsibility). - Working with people & different backgrounds; maintaining close contact, frequently checking in, exchanging feedback & experiences, supporting people or helping them to improve situations. A job without this personal aspect drains me. - Strategic thinking and seeing the bigger picture. I get bored quickly and don't really get motivated from having to focus on details, detailed processes, etc. I get a lot of energy from being able to think about the bigger picture, about strategy, about how to come up with new concepts/processes or improvements to existing ones. - I like learning about new things, regardless of what it is. I'm someone who digs deep in new information and really wants to understand how something works. On the flipside, I get bored quickly once I've figured something out, so e.g. repeating the same project or process drains me. - Serving as a supportive lead/spokesperson for teams or colleagues' needs or issues. I'm not afraid to challenge systems or processes when I think it can benefit others to change them. - Figuring out dynamics between people in a work setting; how someone is affecting others or affecting processes, how to motivate people, how to help others be more satisfied and content in their work. It's maybe a lot of information I've given, but my question is; are there careers you think of that fit with these interests? Either related to my background or totally disregarding it. Thank you very much in advance!

What experiences, skills, and decisions had the biggest impact on helping you reach your current role as a mechanical engineer, and how could someone with my background best follow a similar path I’m a high school senior planning to study mechanical engineering, and I’ve explored a mix of hands-on and creative interests—band, CAD design, 3D printing, and running a small woodworking business making charcuterie boards. I enjoy learning across different areas and asking questions to really understand how things work. Why do you think certain experiences like internships, personal projects, or specific classes matter more than others, and how should I prioritize my time during college to build the strongest foundation for a successful career??

Useful Skills for EE?
Next year I’m starting out as an EE major in college, but I find myself fidgeting at home wondering if I’m doing all I can to prepare myself.

Some friends suggested coding, while others said to skip coding and learn 3D modeling. All of my friends have different answers, and they always start to bicker when I bring it up. My dream job is working on plane electrics systems if that helps narrow it down.
