Funny, you heard them first as an mp3. Luckily, you used your ATM card and oops, better check your balance online because you need to pick up some food that you can microwave since your parents are vacationing in the Bahamas. Come to think of it, you'd better call dad on the cell phone to see if he needs that new golfing DVD that syncs to his electronic golf game that uses biofeedback for his carpal tunnel syndrome. Ah, but for now, ignition on, CD in, radar detector activated as you cruise home in dad's new car, and you ponder ... looking at the satellite on the horizon, ... just what career could be coolest.
We don't need to tell you that almost anything you've done today was powered by an electrical impulse. Electrical & Computer Engineers today are busy engineering the next wave of impressive devices that will shape our future.
An ECE degree is your ticket to designing the electronics of the future. You can expect a flexible work schedule. You can expect to be compensated well for your efforts and feel a sense of pride in your creations. We will teach you the theories and provide you with hands-on practical applications. But you and your peers will engineer the future.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) hosts a WWW site, IEEE Career and Employment Resources, where ECE careers and resources can be explored. Visit the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences Career Opportunities site to learn more about the opportunities in electrical and computer engineering. UNH's Advising and Career Center provides career planning for students and UNH alumni.
InterEC.net Job Search is a job search site for electrical and computer engineers. You will find others on the world wide web.
