How did you get into the auto body/auto mechanic field? What was your expectation going in and how did that contrast to reality?
I'm currently in Job Corps wondering if this trade is for me or not. I have always had a passion for cars and I like to think that they are pretty much adult legos with extra parts and steps, but obviously, if I keep that sentiment I will be in for a rude awakening. What was your experience first getting into this field and how much of it was similar or different from your expectations?
Should I continue to learn Computer science and programming?
For a little background I started to learn programming around a few months ago and i really enjoy it, but I've been worrying about AI taking over if not in the near future maybe later on, I want to see if it's the way to go and it wont be replaced by ai (I'm a junior in high school).
Mechanical Engineers!
Hi, please share any experiences about being one in the field for future M.E? It would be greatly appreciated.
How versatile and stable are the chemical engineering vs. bioengineering fields, and where do the two overlap??
I'm a student at Oregon State University currently majoring in Bioengineering. I'm considering switching to Chemical Engineering. So far, I have taken on one internship doing biochemistry research and I'm a licensed Pharm Tech. I know that I'm interested in Biochemistry and Chemistry, and I want to know which major is most applicable to pharmaceuticals or has the potential to expand my options should I find out I'm interested in non-pharma things. If you can, please also comment on any potential salary differences. Thank you for your help!
What are some routes to study mechanical engineering (vocational) ?

Is it a good idea to go study in the US?
After I got a remote full time job(where I get my work done in about 20/30 hrs a week, but paid for 40) I was looking to go study in the US. Starting at Santa Monica college and then if needed transfer to UCLA, I want to work as an actor and writer in Hollywood but still have a good degree to fall back upon. So my plan was to double major in acting and a STEM career(like some engineering, since I am pretty good at math and physics having studied them at an Italian high school where I came from) Will this be a good idea? Will I be able to actually get hired in the US? will it be possible for me to start a acting career in LA this way(note I also already have a American accent and good proficiency in English), my biggest fear is not being able to find any jobs in the US and maybe if I stay here in Italy and get a degree here I will be able to get a secure job in Italy(even tho they ain’t paid good aka 40k year pretax as a ceiling, meaning that is the highest earning potential after years of experience). Tell me what you think
