Where should I email or contact for engineering internships or shadowing in Jonesboro, Arkansas?

I am a 10th-grade student very invested in STEM, primarily engineering passion. I am a part of the Vex Robotics program and was to find anyone I could shadow to explore my passions further. I am extremely interested in aerospace engineering and have difficulty finding anyone of that genre in my area. A business or even specific people would be very helpful! Thank you!

Careers in Academia vs Industry?

Hello all! Recently, my professor asked me if I've ever considered a career in academia after reading one of my essays... which made me wonder what academia is and what the experience is like (beyond getting a PhD). I'm not sure what I want to do with my life, I like computer engineering (the idea of building something like a robot, etc), but I also really like forensic studies and the topics. I'm a third year student in university. So, here are my questions: If you're in academia, why do you pick it? What's something you wish you knew before starting? Would you work in industry? What are pros and cons of your job? If you're in industry, why do you pick it? What's something you wish you knew? Would you work in academia? What are pros and cons of your job?

AmirhosseinAug 29, 2024775 views

Hey guys. This is Amirhossein. And Amirhossein loves to be a CEO or making startups which are combination of: technology,medical,cars,machines,...(haven't decided yet) I live in iran and I have to choose my major for B.S. The good point is that I am in top 100 students of iran but the bad point is that I can't decide between EE,CS & Industrial engineering. Why industrial? Cause I think I can learn communication and management skills and that helps me a lot for being a CEO or making startups ,factories and sth like that. Honestly I'm confused about these 3. I had an idea to start with B.S in industrial engineering and continue my path with M.S in CS. I DON'T KNOW. Would you please help me through this. It means a lot to me.

Industrial engineering or CS or EE

I'm Looking To learn more about Aerospace Engineering

I'm currently a student at Job Corps in NH and am looking to help design the next generation of Aircraft and space exploration rockets for the United States. I'm taking Adv. manufacturing where my Teacher was a defense contractor and is very knowledgeable about aerospace engineering and has been very informative about the concepts I had a good grasp on but needed more in-depth info on, I want to work in this field because it's my passion. I know I need at least a bachelor's degree and with scholarships I can easily get that done, but from there I do not know where to go, where would I start looking for work? What skills should I continue to develop or start developing now? Where should I consider living for the best chance of being hired? If anyone is willing to help me figure out more on this field and how would be best to get into it I would be very grateful, nonetheless thank you very much for reading this post
