While I am not entirely sure of the specifics of what I want to do after graduation, I do know I want to go into control systems design, perhaps concentrating on power systems. I also want to keep the doors...

    Engineering Careers involving electromagnetism (engineering)?

    Maybe to add some organisation to my question- What are some other examples of jobs that make use of EM and what would the job entail? Are the jobs in this concentration generally stable? If I have a good gpa and had a solid foundation on the basics, would it be difficult to break into...

    Engineering Careers involving electromagnetism (engineering)?

    Hello, I am an EE at college, and I will be graduating in (most likely) 3 semesters. Out of all of the parts of EE, I have really enjoyed electromagnetism the most and I was wondering if anyone had any insight into careers that revolve around EM. I just don't have a good grasp of what...
