Career in Electrical & Electronics Engineering

Welcome to reality and congratulations on graduating.

This is your life, you have to choose what you wish to do in the vast collection of random things that will happen around you. You must choose which opportunities and disciplines to follow within your field. You know better than anyone here your creative talents. I realize that your unplanned timing of graduating in the middle of a global recession has made it more difficult to locate a new job. This will eventually pass, hang in there.

Sorry, can only recommend engineering if you want to sh*t bricks all day. ;)

that's easy.. just figure out what makes toyota accelerators stick.. you will win the million dollar prize and assure your place in automotive control systems history.

also, see if you can program cars like in this post.

If you like learning how stuff works and finding ways to improve things ... process-control engineering! There's no question in my mind that it makes you deal with lots of stuff in very many fields ... just don't get stuck doing nothing but designing and programming control systems. Go to project sites to check (commission) and start up systems there ... don't end up stuck in an office all the time.

Cheers! And good luck .. DZ

I took a job as an engineering research support engineer at a university before I graduated in EE, but that was before computers, so it wasn't the same then as it is now. Most of the work I did was control systems engineering, but a good portion was machine design, which I really enjoyed. Some of the problems I encountered required some rather innovative thinking, as engineering research implies, a lot of stuff had never been done before -- makes you think -- a lot!

Any how you have graduated in EE congrats. I would suggest that you should qualify as "Energy Auditor" or "Solar/Wind Power Generation" or "Environmental Engineering". Best of Luck.

Congratulation for successfully graduating from University obtaining engineering degree. Embedded systems,nano technology, building management systems, controls systems are few potential area you can consider for work experience and further specialization. All the Best.

If you like calculations - I understood math then maybe DSP field you will find interesting? Especially DSP algorisms utilizes FPGA can be challenging. All modern wireless systems use this knowledge. It is still new field, so there is still room for new ideas...
