Thought I would introduce myself.
My name is Chase and I will be a senior at a mid-sized university in Michigan this coming year. I'm a clinical exercise science major, which involves a good deal of physiology and exercise prescription.
What exactly am I doing on a physics forum then? Well I took my "Physics for dummies" class last winter, as part of my major, and I fell in love with it.
I was never a good student during high school, but am doing much better now that I have found some direction. My goals now are to complete my current major (I only have 5 classes and an internship left). However, I will be studying as much mathematics, physics, and engineering that I can during my last 4 semesters.
I hope to enter into the mechanical engineering realm working with biomechanics and possibly robotic design. I'm lucky that my university has a lot of student organizations, robotics being one of them. I plan to join it in the fall to help build my knowledge of electronic and mechanical engineering.
I hope to get a Masters in mechanical engineering. I know that there aren't many options for an undergrad without an engineering degree, but I'm currently looking at Boston University's LEAP program, which offers a Masters in Science for engineering for undergrads not holding an engineering degree.
I'm currently studying for my university's advanced math placement exam. It covers college level algebra and trigonometry. If I pass the exam, I will be able to enroll in our first semester calculus course.
I feel like I'm getting a really late start on everything, but am happy that I've finally found something that I am excited for.
If I'm not accepted into a Masters program, I plan to get an undergraduate degree in engineering. It will require a lot of extra work, but I'm in the fortunate position of my father being a professor at my university, which gains me 50% tuition.
So, as I'm studying for the advanced math placement test, you may see me post questions here and there about some simple concepts that I need help with. I hope to challenge myself and learn a lot from this forum.
Now it's back to studying,
Chase
