I am trying to test transistor characteristics to make sure they are close to the manufacturer's value. Does anyone know of a way to test the Ft @ the manufacturer's test conditions for a particular transistor? Now I know all I need to do is measure the gain and multiply it by the max...
Thanks for the advice. As for choosing a college, one of my top requirements is that I get work experience as I learn the courswork. The thing that bothers me the most about many Universities is that they only teach you the theory, but rarely touch upon or prepare you for the practical...
I'm wondering if it is a wise decision to get a MS. in Structural Engineering when I have a BS. in Electrical Engineering. Although I have the proper mathematical and scientific background to get through much of the technical stuff, I am not sure if I would be lost in these higher level...
The past 6 months I have been working as a temp at Symbol Technologies on Long Island. After having some trouble finding an entry level position in Electrical Engineering I decided to take a "Test and Validation tech" position as a way to get my foot in the door and meet some EEs. This was my...
"One of the biggest points I got from the book is that you must explicitly tell the hiring manager that you are interested in the position"
Ummm isn't that the reason I would come in for an interview anyway. Oh well never underestimate the stupidity of the interviewing process. Anyway thanks...
After what seems like endless hours of applying for jobs online I've finally figured out that this method won't get me anywhere. I know that companies prefer the online method because it less intrusive, but since this is obviously not working I think its a good idea to just seek out engineering...
I keep reading how Engineering is such a great field and I definitely do not doubt it. Like EddyC wrote "You are now part of a profession that does more for the world than any other." But I can't help but be discouraged on the fact that as much that can be done with this degree, I cannot find...
This thread really got me intrigued and I am wondering how I would apply to a government defense company? What is a good resource for finding such companies?
Although experience is not the number thing that employers look for to fill entry level positions, I would think that it does separated one person from another. It is true that when it comes to doing a job involving my field of study, my confidence level is not as high as it should be. I am...
First off let me reply by saying thank you to all for your valuable posts. IRStuff I will certainly look into this book that you spoke of and will let you know how I feel about it. The Peace Core is definitely the direction that I was leaning toward and I have already applied 2 weeks ago. My...
Hello everyone,
I'm new here and thought this would be an excellent place to get advice on my current situation. I have just graduated in December with a BS in Electrical Engineering at the University at Buffalo and am honestly very lost on what path I want to take with my degree. My problem...
