I am going to college for engineering, and was wondering you need to go to grad school to get a job an engineer, or if the basic four years will suffice.

I am asking because I have been passionate about solving the environmental problems around the world since I was in elementary school, and I am currently majoring in civil engineering because environmental engineering is under the civil engineering branch. Although I can just major in...

I live in California, and I am reluctant to go too far for college. I would like to stay relatively close to home, so I can visit my parents and come back home without having to travel too far. I'm interested in computer science and psychology, and I would like to do something in one of those...

I’m in tenth grade and love engineering but I ruined my gpa in middle school when I wasn’t sure what a gpa was. Now I’m serious about my future but i think I messed it up. #engineering

I want to be an engineer because I love building and fixing things, but how do I choose what type of engineer to be, because there is many options and I can't decide which I would like to be.#carreer-choice #career #engineering

I chose to ask this question because I am currently enrolled in AP Statistics, AP Chemistry and Honors Trigonometry this year (my 11th grade year) and am considering taking AP Calculus and AP Physics next year (my 12th grade year). Will taking these classes set me apart from other students and...

I have recently been looking into Stanford and it literally looks like the college of my dreams. Great looking campus, low student to faculty, small student body, etc etc. But my question applies because at my high school, I am class rank #1/530ish with a 4.0 unweighted GPA along with a decent...

I decided to do my Senior Project on Job Shadowing a Mechanical Engineering. I want to learn about the job and see how the lifestyle is. I also want to know if I really want to pursue these career. #mechanical-engineering #job-shadowing #engineering #mechanical-or-industrial-engineering...

I am currently in the 10th grade and am thinking of becoming an engineer in the future. I talked about it with my parents and they discouraged me from being an engineer, saying that many engineers get laid off in their later years and get replaced my younger engineers. I want to have a reliable...

A couple schools I've applied to have extended an invitation to apply to their honors programs, but why should I? How does it help me in life?

I am hoping to pursue a career in biomedical engineering. However, I will likely work in an electrical product engineering position for a non-biomedical company following graduation. How will biomedical companies I apply for in the future see this? Will this experience help me or will they...

I have noticed when applying to large companies (nationals or multinationals for example) that it seems you cannot both be involved in technical work (deep mathematics, physics, or engineering) and have a role in management. It seems that the two branch off rather early and because I like the...

Considering everyone you have met in your field, what attributes do you think are essential for success as an engineer?
