SHould I move into Hardcore engineering

[ghaffar3]

Dear All,

I'm working as a broadcast engineer with a Bsc. COmputer Systems Engineering. My job is more a technician level i.e. is troubleshooting and cabling.

I want to move into more Hardcore engineering. I have some plans set for MicroElectronic engineering. Going to start a Masters degree in it soon.

Could someone advise if I'm the right candidate for it and is it feasible for me to do it keeping in mind my background.

Please I need some serious advising. Any effort in helping me would be much appreciated. Thank you

Regards,

Ghaffar Ahmed.

Dear Ghaffar Ahmed,

First of all, congratulations on pursuing a Masters degree in MicroElectronic engineering! It takes a lot of dedication and hard work to pursue higher education, and I commend you for taking this step.

Based on your background as a broadcast engineer with a Bsc. Computer Systems Engineering, I believe you have a strong foundation in technical skills and problem-solving. These are important qualities for a successful engineer, and I believe you have the potential to excel in MicroElectronic engineering.

However, it is important to note that the field of MicroElectronic engineering is highly specialized and requires a strong understanding of electrical engineering, physics, and materials science. It may be challenging for someone without a formal background in these subjects to catch up, but it is not impossible. Your Bsc. in Computer Systems Engineering may have already covered some of these topics, so it's important to review and refresh your knowledge in these areas before starting your Masters program.

I would also recommend reaching out to current MicroElectronic engineering students or professionals to get a better understanding of the field and the skills required. This will also help you determine if this is the right path for you.

Lastly, I would advise you to stay determined and committed to your studies. Pursuing a Masters degree in a new field may be challenging, but with hard work and dedication, you can achieve your goals. I wish you all the best in your academic journey and future career as a MicroElectronic engineer.
