How do I get started with Robotics?

I am very passionate about it, but I have no clear path ahead of me except creating a few basic bots like a Line Follower Robot or an Obstacle Avoiding bot. Any tips? Also, I'm a 2nd Year Electronics Engineering student for context.

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!

How competitive is the software engineering field? Will a regular bachelor's degree in computer science GUARANTEE a spot in IT? As a resident in Maryland, does being a software engineer require you to live in a urban/city area? Are their any software engineers that are successful that live in more suburban to rural areas? (I'd like to live in a suburban area)

I am a 15 year old high school student in the state of Maryland, and I have a slight interest in the field of IT (specifically software engineering). Time is running short so I'd like to ask some questions about the field.
