Since a young age I have been interested in obtaining my degree in a field of engineering. There were many factors that helped me come to this conclusion. One of those factors was that I always had an advanced understanding of mathematics and science. More important to me than excelling at math and science was that I actually enjoyed the subjects. What I enjoyed most about these subjects was all of the challenging problems that they could offer. I enjoyed how these problems made me think in ways that were not exactly straight forward. Often times in order to solve these problems I needed to apply multiple concepts together in order to make it possible to solve the problem at hand. From this I learned that I had a talent for problem solving …show more content…
For some reason I just really understood all of the concepts that were taught in the class. I actually enjoyed building and working on the circuits in lab. It really just all clicked in my head. Figuring out the resistance of a circuit and how fast a capacitor would charge came easy to me. The concepts and the math and science behind circuits and electromagnetism all flowed together and made a clear fluid idea in my head. While learning about these ideas in class I realized that I wanted to pursue a career that would allow me to work with circuits and electromagnetism. That is when during one lecture my professor mentioned that Electrical Engineers would apply the concepts that we have learned so far to almost every project that they work on. That got me thinking that maybe Electrical Engineering was something that I would like to pursue. Over the next couple of weeks I did some research on what kind of projects Electrical Engineers work on, and what exactly they do within those projects. After doing this research I decided that Electrical Engineering was a career path that I believe I could succeed in, but most importantly enjoy and
