@proto_azure I am a few things, predominately a Data Scientist, however I am also trained as an Electrical and Computer Engineer and have a full EE lab here. Though it is only a part of what I do some of the time.
For me I mostly just love seeing advanced maths realized in simple ways you can play with hands on. There isnt a lot of fields that have that, at least not from a setting you can do in a relatively inexpensive lab (compared to say a particle physics lab or something that easily would cost many orders of magnitude more).
@proto_azure Well I had an unusual university career. I started university at 15/16 I think it was. I skipped high school and went right to university. So I had some extra time.
Plus I went through university suprisingly fast, tested out of a lot of the more basic classes or would take multiple classes and just go and takethe tests and not really do much of the coursework that wasnt graded.
@freemo that is amazing. I've always loved math in my work.
Did you have to go through several careers through college or were you trained, or both? In order to become two types of engineer
