Guest Aaron Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 I took 2.5 years of the the ME curricula at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. At the same time I was working in IT in the Continuing Education Department. I changed my major to MIS, and and had to drop out after a semester because I had to get a better job. Now 10 Years in IT, and I still haven't finished that degree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeeboost Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Where's the engineering market at right now? I'm thinking of getting my B.S. in computer hardware engineering, but I've been reading that the demand my go down. Before this, I was looking at aerospace engineering, but computer hardware seemed to interest me more. Is anybody here a computer hardware engineer? If not, anything close, like a computer software engineer, or something similar? Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baddriver Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Meee TOOO! Congratulations to anyone who is still reading this far into the post. I was a control systems engineer for about a year (engine control units for diesels), now I am an environmental specialist. I have a bachelors in Physics, and I'm studying for a second bachelors in Computer Sci, after which I'll probably be a software engineer.

I have a friend that is Computer Engineer that is workin as IT manager for an accounting firm in Huntsville. Computers as a whole are down right now, and the market is not looking up very much. I am beginning to see an upswing, but it will be very gradual because so many companies have gone to outsourcing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
