    Summer Internship

    Given that I only have degrees in Mathematics, and I'm not starting my MS in engineering til the Fall, do I have enough of a chance of getting an engineering internship this summer that it would be worth it to apply, or would I just be wasting my time?

    Summer Internship

    Sorry, I don't mean to argue, Mike, I guess I just wondered if there's something you know that I don't? Why am I finding so many internships on the internet (indeed.com and monster.com). Should I not be looking there for internships? What do you suggest? I honestly want to learn and be open to...

    I have a BS and MS in math. Want to become a PEng. in Canada. BEng or MEng?

    I have a BS and MS in math. Want to become a PEng. in Canada. BEng or MEng?

I am immigrating to Canada and would like to get an engineering degree at a Canadian university, and...
