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?
I posed this same question to my colleague who was an engineer in the industry for many years and now teaches engineering. She knows I have only a BS and MS in Math and want to get another MS in Measurement and Control Engineering at Idaho State U. I asked her if she had any alternative...
If it would help (or if you’ve gotten this far already and want to read more), here’s a little more about my background and thought process:
I have a BS and MS in mathematics and have been teaching math at the community college level for 2 years. I no longer enjoy it like I thought I would. I...
This is more or less a continuation of the discussion in this thread, but I moved it here to get some more feedback from a wider audience.
I am struggling with what my career goal should be and the path I need to take to get there. I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
I am looking...
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 an BS and MS in mathematics and my thesis involved a lot of control theory. I have decided I want to change my career to control engineering. I got accepted to a Masters program called Measurement and Control Engineering at ISU. I'm wondering though if it is necessary to get this degree...
I am going to be starting a Master's in Measurement and Control Engineering at Idaho State University. I would like to do an internship this summer before I start there in the fall.
I have decided that would like to eventually live and work in Colorado. Should I apply for only internships in...
lol miningman, actually, the posts, at least about the US, have been helpful, because we haven't immigrated yet from the US and there's a chance we may end up here. Things are up in the air right now, but our sights are set on Canada.
Thanks for all your comments. Most mechanical engineering job postings that I see, both in the US and Canada, say that a degree in engineering is required. Are they generally talking about a bachelor's degree, or will a master's degree suffice?
I am a math professor from the US. I have a bachelor's and master's in mathematics from a US university. I desire to change careers from a mathematician to an engineer (mechanical engineering). I am immigrating to Canada and would like to get an engineering degree at a Canadian university, and...
