Roger that! Even my undergrad and graduate school EE degrees did not teach me everything that I needed to know to do well in my work and my interests. Keep learning! And the PF is a great place to do that continuing learning.NathanSM said:
That sounds fun! You did an excellent decision to join Physics Forums, it's the place to be for this, and to learn more about electromagnetism!NathanSM said:
Certainly! But to be honest all those classes got me was a CSWA and it was supposed to teach me electronics, physics, and pneumatic systems. It gave me a lot of opprotunities like getting my pilots license for free and experience with controlling and building robots but skipped a lot of fundamentals.Dr.D said:

So far all of my education has been pretty lackluster compared to what it had advertised. But those classes have lots of resources and machines that I can teach myself to use. I want to learn a lot more skills and I've hit a bit of a wall. Hopefully this forum can help me!berkeman said:
Solidworks certification. It is a 3d CAD program.Dr.D said:
Currently, I am working on multiple small engineering projects that involve mechanical, electrical, and software engineering. These projects range from designing and building small robots to developing new software algorithms for data analysis.
I have always been fascinated by how things work and how technology can improve our lives. I am constantly looking for new challenges and opportunities to learn and grow as an engineer, and these projects allow me to do just that.
Managing multiple projects can be challenging, but I have developed a system that works for me. I prioritize my tasks and set realistic timelines for each project. I also make sure to communicate regularly with my team and delegate tasks when necessary.
Working on these projects requires a combination of technical skills, such as coding and designing, as well as soft skills like problem-solving and teamwork. It is also important to have a curious and innovative mindset to come up with creative solutions.
I stay updated by reading scientific journals, attending conferences and workshops, and networking with other engineers. I also make sure to continuously learn and improve my skills through online courses and hands-on projects.
