Engineering Career Change

Fernando Said:

Career change from engineering to business...Any thoughts and suggestions?

We Answered:

Now is the best time for you to get an MBA. You're relatively young and have work experience related to your undergraduate and graduate school course. But if you really want to move up the corporate ladder, you'll need an MBA. You'll find out there are a handful of engineers in graduate school for the same reason. Some engineering graduates may have a hard time to complete the program because it's completely different from the course they took in college. So it's best that you find an MBA school whose faculty and program are best suited for a technical guy like you.

Career Change from Electronics to Environmental Engineering?

We Answered:

Anything you are passionate about is worth pursuing as you will enjoy what you'll be doing, be good at it, and therefore be successful, even at this stage of your life.
Microelectronics was the flavor of the month in the 80s and 90s, but I am not so sure now, as the industry is now limited to a few giant companies and the average company finds it very hard to invest the capital for CAE and undertake a huge risk (NRE costs).
On the other hand, everyone is worried about the environment, so perhaps there are better job prospects there.
Good luck with your decision!

im a RN. and want a career change. i want to go into engineering.?

We Answered:

You are not in an unusual circumstance at all. Many studies show individuals will have five or more careers over the course of their life.

An option to consider is to look at pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturers in your area. I suspect they may have a need for an RN with a strong background in science and math in research, sales, and education. Further, as an employee you may have the benefit of your employer picking up part (or all) of your education.

Good luck. I think your in a good position to change careers successfully.
