I'm in my second year of EE at my university right now, and I'm going to have to pick what I want to specialize in. That means I should now have some sort of idea of what I actually want to do once I graduate.
The class that I've enjoyed the most thus far has got to be one called Digital...
I'm in my second year of undergrad majoring in electrical engineering. I'm a straight A student, and I still have plenty of time for socializing.
I do my homework the day I get it, unless there's a lot in one day, in which case I'll spread it out a bit, but I never wait until the last moment...
I forgot about extra-curricular competitions, I most certainly plan on entering those as I always find them a blast. There have been a few at my last school, and though I've never won anything, I've always had a good time with them.
As for a 3.5 gpa being enough, I'll keep that in mind, but...
I'm starting my undergrad in electrical engineering at McGill University this fall, and while I know that it's still years ahead of me, I want to know how I can best secure my chances into whatever grad school I want down the road.
I plan on doing their honours EE course, as well as a minor...
From what I've seen so far, I'm thinking that going the EE route might be my best bet, especially if it won't make a huge difference as far as my being able to do further study in nanotech goes. Firstly, if I change my mind, I'm actually going to graduate as an accredited engineer, so that's a...
I'm interested in going into the field of Nanotechnology, and after speaking to a professor from McGill university, he told me that getting a degree in EE with a minor in physics would be one of the best foundations for grad work in nanotech. Now, the thing is that McGill doesn't actually offer...
In Fall 2008, I'm going to start studying for an undergrad in electrical engineering.
I'm getting tired of doing gruntwork for my summer jobs, stuff like painting, being a salesman etc... and I was wondering whether people know about any summer jobs that are somewhat field related that I could...
There are no ways of getting a university education outside of paying the 3000$ a semester, or what will become 3500$ because it's the least expensive in Canada. We currently pay less for our university education than it costs to attend community college in the states.
I currently attend Cegep (Kind of like community college in Quebec. It's mandatory if you plan on going into university, and it replaces grade 12 and freshman year) and there's a bunch of talks for a student strike to try and prevent a planned tuition increase of 500$ for University in Quebec...
Is that really true? I've never really been explained what the use of a minor is, just heard the word thrown around a lot. I assumed it carried some weight. Is it true that they're hardly ever a factor in employment decisions?
I'm planning on going into Electrical Engineering at McGill next year, and I am debating between taking a minor in management or in physics. The only reason that I would want to take one in physics is because the subject really interests me, but I don't see myself working as a physicist. On the...
There might be a major/major option, but I haven't gotten the chance to speak to an adviser yet, but they're visiting my school soon, so I'll get a chance.
The only thing that worries me about a major/major is that I've heard that both physics and electrical engineering are very demanding...
The school I'm looking into for undergraduate studies (McGill University) offers both a Physics major with EE minor and an EE major with Physics minor. If you take the EE minor, you aren't accredited. I am planning on probably continuing with my education until at least a master's degree, but I...
TheRyan: Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. I learned about it from a guy sitting next to me on a plane ride who was studying there at the time, he had nothing but praise for the entire thing.
I just found out that my local University (McGill) offers a pure physics minor with their honours...
