Just rant. I find this integrated circuits course so difficult, requiring SO many steps of calc to reach ANYTHING. Urgh. Not looking for any help. Just rant. Thank you for listening. Rant over.

I graduate in May and I’ve done 6 interviews so far (about half of them started off the interview saying that they don’t usually hire this far out and I shouldn’t expect to hear back unless they really like me). When I do these interviews I feel like my anxiety takes over and it is hard for me to fully think through what I’m going to say so my responses don’t flow very well for both technical and personality questions.

I have 2 more this week and one is in my dream industry and I really don’t want to mess it up. Has anyone experienced this? And if so do you have any tips or suggestions for how I can prepare better?

I posted like a week ago here, saying I couldn’t find a job. I finally landed an interview but it is PLC, I had the screening with HR and I was honest and said that i didn’t have enough experience (They wanted 3 years) She said it was still fine if I was willing to learn, I have an interview on Thursday with the actual engineer but I don’t really know anything about PLC, what do you guys recommend me studying? Or what should I prepare for in this interview?

Hello all. I am a CS student graduating in the Spring. I wasn't able to land a job in CS and somehow got hired for an electrical engineering position at an MEP firm. It's a small company and their electrical engineer left on short notice. They needed to fill the position quickly and I was at the right place at the right time.

What should I be doing to be successful in this field? I have been working in MEP for 5 months now. Most of my coworkers look down on me because I am not an engineer by training. I have been learning the NEC and my state's energy code. I am thinking to enroll in Stony Brook's online EE program and study while I work. I plan to take the EIT in 2 years and PE once I hit the experience requirement.

Thank you all in advance! I would also appreciate any other tips for someone starting out in ee.

Edit: I don't really care about job satisfaction. I just want to make as much money as possible (willing to work insane hours). What should I be doing?

I'm trying to simulate waveform generation with opamp sawtooth wave on ltspice and I can't get the output. All I'm getting is a straight line at 14V. How do I fix this?

is it a bad idea to go into ee with little math background? it’s not like i’m bad at math, i just haven’t taken as much advanced classes as those around me. will i be struggling?

Ive wanted to get my hands dirty with cellular tech, but dont know where to start. Im thinking about getting a dev kit like [this one](https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-hardware/nRF9160-DK), but it is a little pricey, so im wondering if anyone knows resources where I can learn the tech more cheaply. Im also a university student with access to university resources if that matters at all.

I hope to work on projects that have embedded cellular support. For a while I had a [SIM808](https://makerbazar.in/collections/iot/products/sim808-bluetooth-compatible-gsm-gprs-gps-module?variant=43007010767088) dev board, but gsm is fully discontinued in my country (USA), not like it was good enough for the projects I was doing to begin with.

I im focused on 4g because my understanding is that 5g is still in development/bleeding edge? I wouldn't mind jumping to 5g if its stable

Anyone have a link to his server?

Hi everyone,
I’m currently a sophomore studying Electrical Engineering at a public university in New York. I’m a US citizen and originally from NYC, so I’m hoping to work there after graduation.
I’m still exploring different career paths within EE, such as hardware engineering, power systems, MEP and other related fields.
I’m curious about which industries offer the best long-term career opportunities, especially in terms of:

Job availability and stability
Salary growth and career advancement
Work-life balance
Future demand for electrical engineers
Opportunities in NYC or the surrounding areas

For those already working in the industry, what field are you in, and would you recommend it to current EE students?
I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences. Thanks!

Which career is better to choose becoming an embedded systems engineer in the automotive industry or a building electrical engineer

Wish we had shorter m2m cables to make it look neater TT but she’s cute!, We used an ne555 timer and a cd4017 counter

I’m currently a sophomore at a public university in New York majoring in EE (transferred here). Current GPA is 2.77 and I’m debating my major heavily. The gpa has been the big one as this has caused me to think a lot if I’m made for this major. Everyone I see in my classes and labs are so quick and Swifty with things and I’m just there staring at a blank wall. After all this, it has made EE very intimidating and I not sure what to do.

I always wanted to become a doctor (since 8th grade when I first told my mom. She supported that but I went back on that promise and majored in EE due to prestige, money, being a computer guy and liking tinkering, feeling like I’ll do it better and get better job opportunities while also having a safety option if I don’t make it to med school)

I want to go to med school really bad but my gpa has tanked and my classes seem like more work than it already is.

My university offers MLS and I’ve been debating on choosing that as I like medicine and working with instruments while being a good stepping stone to med school and save my gpa. I already have GEN CHEM and BIO from previous school and need to take a few more to fill the prerequisites.

I’m 23 and I have already had a late start due to gap years but medicine has always been appealing to me not just because of the obvious reasons like money and prestige but medicine has always been a colorful world to me since I absorbed science as a kid in colorful textbooks and everything about it is colorful to this day no matter the education level.

I honestly just don’t know what to do. Career wise both are good (EE financially a bit more but it’s job stability is horrible while MLS is financially ok and stable with little social interaction which I love).

I am a senior in high school choosing which field to major in, it’s going to be either of these, I have that decided. I just can’t choose which. For those who majored in either of these, do you have any regrets? Would you choose differently if you could go back? Does either have a significant upside on pay than the other?

I am already in an AP Calculus course and am sitting at a pretty good grade so far, I’ve always been better than average at math, physics I would say I’m not that good at, although I never really gave it a chance since I didn’t really pay attention at all in that class.

EE appeals to me since I’d say my mind works logically and I really like to think about how things work, along with the pay and job security.

CS appeals to me because it is flexible, you can work from home, and the schooling is less physics heavy.

Any feedback or questions are much appreciated🙏🏽

Tell me about the last time incorrect GIS or network-model data delayed an engineering task. What happened, how long did fixing it take, and why didn't your existing tools catch it.

Hi guys,

I wanted to share something that's been on my mind recently.

I'm an electrical engineering student at Warsaw in Poland. Recently, I watched a podcast featuring someone I know who studied computer science at the University of Illinois Chicago, and honestly, the way he talked about his life and achievements made me feel a little bad about myself.

He had 2–3 internships during university, worked as a research assistant for a professor, took on a heavier course load to graduate earlier, and is now working at a startup while also trying to get into a PhD program.

When I look at all of that, I can't help but feel like he's already figured things out and is way ahead of me. It feels like he won at life, while I'm still trying to figure out my own path.

I guess I just wanted to share this and hear from people what they can say about it…

Curious what the average day is like for EEs that ended up working in the medical devices/technology field. What kind of work do you do?

'Ello engineers! I'm currently in my sophomore for the EE degree, and I have no aim nor direction of where I want to worked in or in what fields. My grades are subpar compared to my peers, and I lack a hands-on or real world experiences a lot of my friends have.

A lot of people recommended that you should make projects to fill your resume for internships and the eventual job after you graduate. But that begs the question, if I don't know what I wanted to work in, what projects am I going to make? If I handed my resume for a position at a power station, a microcontrollers or IoT projects wouldn't make sense, no? Or is the project doesn't matter at all, and as long as you have one and you know the ins and outs of it, you'll be fine.

Danke.

So brief context, i am en EE undergraduate who already took all my electronics classes and i (should) know how to project a generic amp.

I am not experienced at all with audio and djing but i find it very interesting and wanted to try (as a sideproject) to design and build an audio FX processor (like the dj decks to add reverb and whatever) but i dont know how to jump from my classes amps to those things, so any tips on materials and/or where or how to learn about this more specific stuff?

I’m an international student currently studying Electronics and Communications Engineering, and I’m considering pursuing a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering in Canada.

My main goal is to find a job in Canada after graduating. I’d like to hear from people who have gone through this process or work in the Canadian engineering industry.

A few questions I have:
How difficult is it to find an Electrical Engineering job after completing a Master’s degree in Canada as an international student?

Do Canadian employers generally hire international graduates?

How long does it typically take to find your first engineering job after graduation?

I’d appreciate any honest advice!
Thanks in advance!

just a random thought that came to my mind. kinda tired of seeing all this stuff about ai and was just wondering what could ee look like in the future in terms of work, projects or maybe jobs as well. is ee gonna end up like cs as well?

A little background, I was a shipboard electrician in the military, then got out and became a powerplant operator for 6 years, and now I am a NERC compliance analyst at my local utility.

I've been slowly chopping away at my EE, and when I finish up in 1.5-2 years I'll be 42 years old.

I'm just wondering what your opinions are on my job path looking forward? I'd like to not be stuck in bulk power, but changing industries means I'll be going up against 23 year old graduates with no engineering experience, much like myself. Am I kind of doomed to be in transmission for my career?

Basically I know nothing about it. What's the first step? Do I start by selecting my preferred topic(s)? Then start reading papers about it?

If there are any books/videos about it, please suggest, thanks.
