Hi, so I am a math major currently with 2 years left in school. I went to a math conference this weekend and discovered some really interesting subjects in EE. Control theory and Information Theory specifically. These were more math bent then engineering focus but I downloaded a feedback control theory textbook and I am just falling in love with it. DEQ's have always been my favorite subject.
So I need to decide by the end of this semester if I am going to switch or not. The school has some strict requirements and there is no way around this. I might be able to switch back to math but not math to EE after this semester. Because my school doesn't allow double majors I am leaning toward a EE degree (it is ABET) with a math minor. I have a wife and daughter to support so I am thinking EE will lead more easily to jobs after grad school.
So what would be some good indicators that I might like EE as a major? I haven't taken any circuits classes and I am not a big fan of programming but I do love math and physics. I think my goal would be to go to grad school in control theory and I am really interested in this applied to neuroscience. I have a full ride to my current university and changing now will only take an extra year.
