My interests are quite interdisciplinary: Brain Computer Interface, Neural Networks, Physics and Neuroscience. I would like to work on BCI research in the future. Is this the right path for me?
There is no such things as "what most EEs end up doing".pozykepler said:What do most Electrical Engineers end up doing?

So true. This brings two things to my mind:DaveE said:Engineering is a practice where you design things that are "good enough", not perfect. I personally have never finished a design that I didn't know how to improve given more time and money.
As you can tell from the responses, the more that you can tell us about yourself and your background in school so far, the more we can offer suggestions and advice.pozykepler said:My interests are quite interdisciplinary: Brain Computer Interface, Neural Networks, Physics and Neuroscience.

My version, the Engineer: "Hell, lets go build a damn and get more water"gmax137 said:On the half-glass of water.
Optimist "it's half full."
Pessimist "it's half empty."
Engineer "the glass is too big."
Electrical engineers are typically involved in designing, developing, testing, and supervising the production of electrical equipment, such as motors, navigation systems, and power generation equipment. They may also work on projects related to telecommunications, computer hardware, and control systems.
Electrical engineers can work in a variety of industries, including manufacturing, telecommunications, healthcare, transportation, and aerospace. They may also work in research and development, consulting, or government agencies.
A degree in Electrical Engineering is a good fit for individuals who have a strong interest in math, science, and technology. It is also important to have good problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and strong communication skills. Additionally, individuals who are interested in working with electronics, computers, and other electrical systems may find this degree to be a good fit.
In addition to technical skills related to electrical systems, engineers also need to have strong analytical and critical thinking skills. They should be able to work well in a team, have good communication skills, and be able to manage multiple projects and deadlines. Additionally, knowledge of computer-aided design (CAD) software and programming languages is important for many electrical engineering roles.
The job outlook for Electrical Engineers is positive, with a projected growth rate of 5% from 2019 to 2029, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This growth is due to the increasing demand for technology and the need for more efficient and sustainable energy sources. Additionally, as technology continues to advance, there will be a need for engineers to develop and improve upon existing systems.
