congrats, what kind of engineer are you going to be. my dad is a electrical engineer for hughes aircraft, make satelites for the military and consumer products.

 

I'm in the same boat. I'll be graduating May 04 with an ME degree and I don't have an internship yet. I'll be taking summer school this summer too, so I don't know what I'm gonna do h:

 

plannin to grad in 04 too . not engineering tho

 

damn, dood, congrats:thumbup: go ME!!! :fawk: all you other enginerds. but for real, 20 per hour is like a dream. i'm only a sophomore now, but i hope to have something like that going for me when i scrape up some more credits.

 

thanks for the support. This was my plan B but its an idea for the rest of you guys. Try and find a research project with a prof. for the summer if you can't get the internship. I hear research projects are actually valued a lot more than internships b/c you really get a lot more hands-on experience. Plus you can do that and take classes at the same time.

Excelesor: going to be an mech. engineer. Hopefully for Honda one day. =)

 

i also found a good way to meet high rollers is talking to random people at bars, i mean nice bars. if they like you as a person, there's a good chance you'll get hooked up

 

interesting... my dad does the same thing at the same place... but now they are called boeing. He also does the satellites... maybe they know eachother

 

btw, what are your grades like?? if you dont mind me asking. my grades are kinda :ugh: right now [2.9] but thats because I have 4 U's averaged in there and i'm only a sopomore. dammit, i tried to drop thos classes but i guess they didnt drop. now i got U's instead of W's, but i'm retaking those classes anyways so i guess it doesnt matter much:dunno:

 

Yeah my senior year I will be doing a senior design project, so that will help out a bit...but an internship would still be nice.

 

barely above 3.5(yes I am a nerd h: ) and as you engineering majors know, it just keeps falling. Hoping to keep it after this sem. I don't know why but it goes up in the fall and goes down in the spring. Its been like this for the past 2 1/2 yrs! I guess I get tired the second sem. and get lazy. I'm nearing the end of my degree, got 2 senior design classes, few labs, and technical area classes and I'm done. I just want to spread it out to 3 sems. instead of 2 to take it easier and enjoy college now that I'm nearing the end.
