    Continue Working or Pursue a Graduate Degree?

    I recommend you go back to your employer if you believe the Phd program is not for you. Losing a semester is not a big deal over a career of 40 years. Seems like you are a smart guy who just needs a more technical position. Try networking within your previous company to find out which...

    Does finishing a BSEE make financial sense at the age of 40?

    If you only have 35 credits under your belt, you have a long way to go. I believe most programs require between 120-140 credit hours for a BS. You don't know what opportunities can come up in the future outside of your company unless you are set on working for your current employer until you...

    Where to learn Solidworks? Pro-E?

    Any idea where I can learn the above software in the Southern California (San Diego) region? I am EE interested in learning the software as I see a lot of job postings that require some kind of modeling experience. I feel like this is a good skill to have even if I don't need to use it in my...

    Taking a tech job as an engineering career entry

    Hi, I think it also depends on the company. My company has a path for Technicians who want to move into Engineering after completing their BS. There are also BS holders who started off as techs and then moved into engineering when an opening came up. If there is a path to move up, it might be...

    Masters in Quality Assurance - what do you think of this program?

    Yes, I agree. I guess it comes down to an MS or MBA. I have talked to a few people who have an MBA and although they don't use it in their job, it was a qualification necessary for them to move into a different role. I don't see the point of an MS for me as my job is already not very technical...

    Masters in Quality Assurance - what do you think of this program?

    http://www.csudh.edu/msqa/courses.html#electives I am across this program and was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on it? My background is in compliance engineering and I will be getting into ISO audits this year. Thanks!

    micalbrch: I have been asking questions for years. Sometimes the answers made sense, sometimes I was told this is how we do things. MikeHalloran and IRStuff: I'll check out the books. I have seen the Art of Electronics book online before. I look into my college textbooks sometimes but they...

    Are any of you like me?

    I have been out of school for 7 years. I graduated with a BSEE from a "top ten" engineering school with a good gpa. I have never worked in design or R&D. I work in compliance engineering. My question is how many of you can understand how a circuit works just by looking at the schematic of a...

    Masters in Energy Engineering

    Thank you for your replies. I have decided to go for the MBA after talking to various people. I will probably pursue the PE along with it. I don't think it is worth going back to school to get an entry level position in the energy industry. I might as well stay in my current field and look for...

    Feed back on Master of Industrial Technology and Management Program

    Thanks for the response. How would this compare to an MBA from an average school? I am looking Northern Illinois University. They are #6 in the chicago region. The cost of the MBA vs the above are almost the same.
