Mastering in ME, what career path should I take?
Asked by Overkill
I am an Engineering physics major in my senior year now. I have decided that I want to go on and get my masters degree. I am beginning to think about writing my statement of purpose letters but before I can do that I need to have a clear idea of where I want to end up. I am pretty sure I want to master in Mechanical Engineering. I want to do something hi-tech and I want to be easily employable anywhere I live. Just brainstorming some ideas to do as a career would be working on spacecraft, working on weapons- small arms weapons or missiles, working on military vehicles, alternative fuel or alternative energy, working in the automotive industry. However I know these ideas are vague and specifically what I want to do is too hard to say. know any tips or resources I could use to help me decide?

Best Answer:
Getting a masters is always good, it will allow for more opportunity. However, you really should decide what you want to do first before you decide what area to get your masters. You may choose to get an MBA instead. If the masters can't inhance your career goal, than what purpose does it serve?

You know that question is over the head of 99% of readers right? I would talk to your engineering career advisors at school, or talk to professors you respect. they can give you much better advice.
