Yeah. It was a pretty common sense question. I have a bad habit of asking questions to which I should already, and usually do know the answer. I normally just like a second opinion. And in regards to Ohm's Law, I love how, no matter how crazy things may look, it all goes back to the basics...

The other interns will be on my level (pursuing an Associates Degree). However, no one can really say whether or not they themselves will pursue an engineering degree of any kind (other than them).

I am working various amplifiers in my labs. On nearly all of these amplifers (CC, CE, or CB), the input signal is capacative coupled. However, the cricuit schematic indicates the use of a polarized capacitor. The capacitors I am using are rated at a maximum voltage of 50V. Most of the voltage...

Assuming I actually get the position, I will be interning this summer at one of the Hydroelectric dams in Alabama (working for Alabama Power of course). As far as course work, I will be graduating with Knowledge of trigonometric AC circuit analysis, DC circuit Analysis, Analog electronics (BJT...

However, it seems I have quite a bumpy road ahead of me. In terms of software development, I would have to rate myself as practically clueless.

Right now, I'm trying to get a head start on learning programming for my next academic step after my associates (engineering degree, most likely electrical or biomedical). Also, I think I would find it personally rewarding to learn a language or two for merely "recreational" uses such as...

I know this is probably one of the more asked questions on just about any forum dealing with technology or science, but I'm tweaking it a bit. I can learn a program easily. It just comes to me like math (most math lol). However, at times, one of two things usually trip me up: 1. I over...

The University of Alabama in Birmingham (UAB) as well as Auburn University and the state's flagship school, the University of Alabama churn out some top tier engineering students. I'm going to continue on the road to an advanced degree, however, only after taking a detour through an A.A.S. in...

Question on the universal "correctness" of mathematics I began thinking of this question long ago, but only now, that I am reading A History of Mathematics, 2nd edition, have I decided to ask for the perspectives and thoughts of others. I am slightly reluctant to ask this question, for it may...

I have taken all maths through Calculus I in high school, which was back in 2008. I am back in college again, this time with a renewed interest in math and philosophy. Without going into too much detail, I think it safe to say that the last thing on my mind in high school was school, which I...

I know what to look for on a general level when choosing colleges, such as cost of attendance and location and such, but how do I go about picking a college in regards to their engineering programs? I know that I want to do computer engineering for various reasons. I have looked at the curricula...
