Should I still apply for internships if I have no experience, side projects, or extracurriculars?
I'm a 2nd year EE student trying to transfer into software engineering, thus I want a software internship. I know some basic stuff like Java, C, Python and algorithms and data structures from classes, and decent cGPA of 3.6, but I have absolutely no experience, side projects, or extracurriculars involving programming. My school projects involving electronics aren't very impressive either and certainly not relevent. Obviously I should aim for more programming experience, but right now I don't have any. Should I still bother applying to internships even without any experience, projects, or ECs? Is it even possible to get one at this point or should I just focus on side projects and learning more for now? Also, getting ECE internships isn't really an option either as there are way more software positions than there are ECE positions. Even if that wasn't the case, I'd be in the same situation, but with a few unimpressive school projects.

How can I get a research opportunity or internship with a professor or company as a high school student?
Hi, I am an high school junior interested in conducting a research or interning in the engineering field this summer, but I’m not sure where to start or how to go about it. I contacted a lot of engineering firms around me and most of them either don’t do internships or don’t have any openings. I don’t have any research questions I specifically want to study, so I was thinking about emailing professors at nearby universities/colleges about joining their research but I’m afraid it might only be limited to students of that university with some sort of experience. I’m also worried that it might be too late since the university’s spring semester around me (their current semester) has just ended. Should I still try and email professors about to join their research, and if so, how? Or should I keep contacting more firms around me? What do you think I should do?
