Does anyone know if it is worth doing both Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering? Does it help or hurt? Anyone know of a person who has done this and what was there outcome.

When it comes to industry anyway.
I am thinking maybe an analytical engineer, may be in control systems/senors or robotics/automation but I am not completely for sure. Ideally if I could use my background in computer science and could combine this with electrical and/or mechanical it would be a dream come true.stewartcs said:It's has helped me personally, but it really depends on what area you want to work in.
