      Definitely! Although I would be more picky about what type of company I would work for after college. I think it would have been great to start a job in a smaller company instead of a big multinational one. I would have learned so much very fast and been more challenged at the start of my career.

      Definitely. My course gave me the tools and structure to solve problems. If I look back at the technology I learned during college most of it is now out of date. But the course gave me the mind set to go forward and just pick up new technology as I go.

      For sure I would. It turned out to be the right decision for me.
      By now I know much better what particular areas I am interested in so I would probably focus on those earlier.

      Yea of course. I’m sorry that I didn’t start sooner learning about engineering a lot sooner. There is so much that you can learn even before you get to college – all that’s needed is some guidance and help getting started. Believe it or not, there are people in secondary school that have taught themselves more engineering than some graduates! Might sound ridiculous but its true – I know some of them!
