Sam Seldon, P.E.

I am a part of an FRC team (we recently went to the World Championship :)
I am a junior in high school
I am a part of a VEX team where we made it to states.
I would love to pursue a career in engineering, especially relating to mechanical or robotics design.

Just some information of how someone in the field would do on daily basis.

How hard will it be to get a Engineering Job after College/ University after 4 years ?

How long do Mechanical Engineers take to create a plan to create an object or etc. ?

I'm just curious on how much I would need to take, so if it doesn't take too long to get a higher level in the field that'd be great?

Is it a feeling of excitement or rather a feeling of worry that something could go wrong in the car then you're to blame? #automotive #mechanical-engineering #cars

I am going to college two years early and I now know what I want to major in. I want to major in Mechanical Engineering and minor or double major in Music. But, I don’t know which courses I should take to meet my high school graduation requirement and follow the career pathway of each major....

As a junior mechanical engineering student interested in the manufacturing industry, do I need my PE for this industry? I plan on taking my FE exam during my senior year and I'm just curious. Thank you! #mechanical #electro-mechanical #mechanical-or-industrial-engineering...

As a mechanical engineering student, or just a student in general, whose going to graduate a year from now, I'd like to know, when is the best time to apply for jobs? Before graduation? #college-job ##college #college-jobs #after-college #after-college #after-graduation #after #careers #career...

Hi, I'm currently a junior level mechanical engineering student with an interest in manufacturing because I've been reading a few magazines about it (Automation World, Pro Food World, etc if anyone's familiar) but I'm still trying to figure out the skills and education that I need for the...

I am in my second year of college, and I still don't know what career path I would like to go down. I have several things that I am passionate about (music, animals, art, psychology, public relations, etc.), but I am worried that if I choose one, it will be the wrong one. I'm afraid of entering...

How do you know that you're not rushing into anything and might end up picking something that you'll regret later? Is it really that big a deal for you to change your major and spend a little extra time in college? I feel like it's possible to not get your major choice completely right the...

I want to start college on the right foot. #college-advice #college-bound

I aspire to study both business and engineering when I go to college, but I am at a crossroads as to which to focus more heavily on. Should I find a five year program where I receive a Bachelors of Science and my MBA? #business #engineering #buildingandselling

There are certain artists I look up to (#JimiHendrix, #TheWho, #TheDoors, #TheBeatles, etc.) that have certain techniques in their playing. Whether it's musical knowledge or just their natural ability on the instrument, these guys differ from everyone else. I already mimic them when I...

I'm a senior in high school and I've heard that it's not a good idea to take 8:00 A.M. classes in college. Is this true? If so, why and what are the best times to schedule classes to help me stay focused. I would really appreciate personal experiences and the guidance! #career #careers...

I've taken the SAT twice, and my scores have already gotten me into my dream college with a scholarship. Is it still necessary or helpful for me to take an ACT?
