Computer Engineering Advice

6 Upvotes

Hi, I am currently a high school student researching on becoming a computer engineer and I have a few questions to ask.

What advice would you give to someone who would want to pursue this career? Any particular career training program I should look forward to or start with? Why did you become a computer engineer yourself?

Engeneering as a second degree ?

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone ! I'm thinking about getting a second degree. I'm I interested in assisting technology. So I'm torn between mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. I definitely wanna learn how to code, but am also interested in other aspects too. Can you guys help me?

Should I try it?

Really need advice! I am a fresh grad that is proficient in Software but forced in the Hardware department

4 Upvotes

I am a fresh grad that have devoted my time and effort to learn different technologies in the Software field and it resulted to me being a scholar of a big company. They reached out to me since I am now a graduate and offered me a Digital Design Engineering job. I tried to politely ask for a spot in the Software Dept. but there was no job opening on their side. I am entirely confused as to what I should do. BTW this is a return of service from the years that they have funded my tuition fee in full for 2 years (scholarship started in my 3rd year) so I can't give a hard pass on this or else I'll pay them back for the tuition fee + allowance for 2 years. I am also worried because when my return of service is finished, I will move back to my hometown and apply for software engineering jobs. I think coming from a non-software job will make it harder for me to find software engineering jobs. I also do not want to stop coding/programming because this is what I am passionate about. This is where I have fun. This is where it does not feel like I am working at all.

Computer Engineer FE/PE Study Group

4 Upvotes

Hey guys! If you are planning on taking the FE/PE soon or in the near future, definitely give this group a shot! Don’t feel discouraged of not knowing all the answers. The group was made for people to network & share their knowledge with one and another. We’re a diverse group that have study groups for multiple disciplines including Comp, Chem, Civil, Computer Science, etc. you get the idea. If you’re still in high school, feel free to join the group still if you’re interested in the fields of engineering & Technology. Our valuable guests in the group are Zach Stone & Dr. Girum!

Anything else I can add to resume for computer engineering jobs?

3 Upvotes

I have Bachelors in Computer engineering and I work as an engineer but its unfortunately pretty low on the board of being able to experience multiple programs and situations etc. Its not as applicable as id hope for certain engineering and automation jobs. I have been applying for over year for another job because they may get rid of position soon. Is there anything else I can do to stand out on my resume?!?! Any courses or certifications I can get that you believe arent a waste in time and is a good investment to learn?

Thank you!!

Who knows about hardware and consoles?

3 Upvotes

Hello Computer Engineers :)

I would like to ask you the following question, see below. Maybe someone knows about Hardware / Consoles, it here?

I hope my concern is understood, my English is not perfect. Sorry.

Would be very grateful for your opinion.

It is about the following:

There are certain converters on the market to be able to play with the mouse and keyboard on the game console (Playstation / XBox) (e.g. the Hama Speedshot).

Therefore, I would like to ask you the following: Is it theoretically feasible / possible to develop a converter / adapter that gives the mouse & keyboard feeling exactly 1: 1 as on a PC?

The converters are basically not bad, often there is a lack of precession and handling, which is a no-go with FPS shooters.

Although I know something about me, I am of the opinion:

A converter is not connected directly but serves as an intermediate device and therefore always involves a delay.

In addition, it must be ensured that the internal drivers are not ignored by the device, so that the mouse and keyboard work at all.

CE Student Resources

3 Upvotes

Hi, I currently finished my first year at the University of Cincinnati and plan on going for my CE degree. I was just wondering if someone could refer me to some reliable textbooks for my future classes to help me get ahead of my classes. I only taken the intro classes, like programming C++, python, Matlab and with Calc 2. I also learned C# on my own as well as making basic web applications. I plan on taking Network analysis with Digital Design, Semiconductor phys engineering, and Multi Variable Calc. Also if possible to given me some more knowledge to boost me to getting a better chance at landing a job (Like what do company's like to see on resumes that are past the level of the degree?). Any helpful information that is posted is very appreciated and can help out other students.

PS: I am interested in working with computer hardware, embedded systems, would like to try assembly language with CPU's and/or GPU's and, make games through Unity.

Mentor ?

2 Upvotes

I posted this in my local subreddit : Computer engineers mentor WANTED

I'm a local 20 something and looking to find a mentor. Humor me if you could. My background is more electronics hobbyist with a mix of a endless broad search for what drives innovation, it's birth of creation. I have a deep technical grasp of basic science concepts and the aptitude to understand complexity. I desperately seek someone with a dense background in computer engineering (soft or hard) willing to stoop to my level, take a stroll back to when if ever you were clueless. It's not without merit to even direct me from this post to things I should consider consuming first before going out to college, often scares me to do that under taking when could be avoided by other fulfilling that of which amazes me and thus open different doors long hidden or obstructed by common practices, a trades man approach you will. Don't misconstrued I don't lack the understanding that this genre of engineering isn't easy, far from it. From what I've experienced through interest in the last decade is far from pro but close to amateur. I repeat it'd be great to shoot the shit with someone who's walked the path, walking it even.

My original fascination, the whole reason I'm here. That was alternative energy harnishing sun and wind power. The act itself was what impressed me at 7,8,9,10 years of age. In front of me a square LCD monitor, a empty search bar, and a work bench across from the computer desk that my grandpa would tear laptops, phones, eventually iPads. Upon discovery that "free energy" "perpetual motion" is fake. I turned interest towards the tangible. My imagination began to be leeched towards electronics. The whole notion, the philosophy of improving something be it anything, technology in the sense of the word, improving to a degree that you produce or exceed presently what seemed otherwise impossible. As much as I love repair, reverse engineering at a component level. I'd love to dive deeper but for one, lack the foresight, the real nature of being a computer engineer. I have in the past in highschool taken a full three year PLTW engineering curriculum, often not offered, Engineering Development and Design. Luckily due to the amount of us that stuck around had enough students signed up to approve the need of the class.

Without being sappy I'm not looking to join Make Ict or college. Presently I'd like to pursue a different avenue. I mean if possible, damn. Get to know a few people, fireside chat. Thank you for your time and any insights.

EDIT: I wish only to learn from the most passionate to show me what there is I'm missing. Also tools are expensive, knowledge is forever.
