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??

Can getting a major and minor in the same field increase chances of working in that field?

I will be a freshman at collage in fall of 26 and my major is Nuclear Engineering. I want to work in power plants, so I was planning to have my minor be in the same field, like mechanical or environmental. Is it worth it and will it help me get into the field after collage?

What is the best approach to getting accepted by employers?

The closer I get to graduating high school, the more nervous I am to get a job. I just want to be able to show employers I want work. Without a job I just get lazier and put my skills to waste. I want to be able to use the skills I gained throughout high school and Tech schools.

What is the difference between Engineering and Computer Engineering?

I would like to do Electrical Engineering, but working with computer it also a good major I would like to pursue. So, is there really any difference between Engineering and Computer Engineering? Do I need different degrees, or do I need to focus on a certain subject?
