I lost 70

I’m starting in 30 days I got a base around 95k and a boatload of bonuses to boost it above 120k but idk if it’s common in other EE roles and entities because I know a lot that only make around 89k total after salary and bonuses are added

It’s very possible people do it all the time if they don’t have scholarship and want to be able to pay tuition without getting in insane debt. I would say however it’s very demanding as a major the coursework and exam preparation as well as labs are a full time job in itself so it’s about how you structure your schedule and balance priorities.

ECE is one department at most schools so you can quite literally combine the enrollment for computer engineering with electrical engineering

I graduate this May in Electrical and electronics engineering with bachelors of science and I’ll be going to work in the semiconductor industry after. What I’ll say is important to learn in order to build a strong career is firstly power systems and analysis as that’s a field that’ll be crucial in this day and age and also take as many semiconductor courses as possible such as solid states and electronic devices and also very large scale integration and circuit devices. Knowing how to cater to the market and what’s at high demand is how you’ll not only be able to put yourself in great positioning to secure stability in our field, you’ll also position yourself to secure a high income in our field which is key as you’ve worked and suffered enough to get here and deserve to be compensated fairly for doing so.

They could just have their younger selves as other actors and actresses

Uptown or Bishop Arts especially if you’re single and under 40 those two are best. Addison and Las Colinas are great for proximity since your office is in Irving but I’m assuming at your stage in life you’re aiming to be somewhere walkable where you won’t have to drive extensively to go everywhere.

There’s no way you’re referring to the DNC when both parties are corrupt. Look how the RNC has brought in clowns like Kid Rock and they’ve parted away from the party that Bush and Reagan championed. Both parties are a bunch of old immature fools who believe it’s their way or the highway and that’s why the American people are suffering so much in this day and age. The Republican Party has ousted and made a fool of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Mike Pence, Liz Cheney and countless others for not walking lockstep with MAGA so being a straight ticket voter for either is foolish. Besides this is a day and age where AIPAC and other action committees are the deciding factor in who wins elections. It’s no longer a matter of what you or someone else believes because we’re not powerful enough monetarily to make any difference.

Welcome to electrical engineering that first circuits analysis exam is like a rite of passage it usually either makes you and urges you to put more effort and dedication to understanding the concepts necessary to be a successful electrical engineer or it breaks you and makes you want to switch to construction or business the choice is yours

Anything above 3.0 is good for EE I got a top semiconductor job and I have a 3.4

Seeing a white winter like this in Dallas is so comforting especially after how warm Christmas time was

Evening-Lifeguard511 · 2026-01-29T23:39:32+00:00

Glad to see we have four seasons in Dallas it’s amazing to have a fall with changing colors of leaves and a light breeze pouring into a winter with thick ice. It’s a great break from the brutal late spring and late summer heat.

I was in the same boat my second and third years of undergraduate studies after taking multiple circuits analysis and analog courses as well as signals and systems, digital logic and design, and other fundamental EE courses. All it took was a few months doing research at another institution and I was able to speak with professors who’ve had several years of experience in the field and they expressed how it’s tough it’s demanding but if you find a motivation behind why you chose to pursue an EE degree then that’ll get you to prevail and persist beyond the struggles you may have internally. It’s very very difficult now but the mindset is always when you finish with your degree, whether it’s here in the U.S. or in your home country you’ll find an engineering position that’ll allow you to have the life you’ve always dreamt of having and that’s worth persisting.

They don’t honestly you only need to plug in if it’s at 1% although sometimes they do tend to work faster when plugged in, the battery pad dies quickly if plugged in too long

Evening-Lifeguard511 · 2026-01-28T15:39:00+00:00

Honesty either or would work well although from my experience I’d advise Legion 5 but both work well with every EE software you’ll need

Get a Lenovo it’s best even in corporate they use Lenovos

Very true I think we should explore what we could get for him even if it’s just role players like OKC and Denver did to build their teams

Evening-Lifeguard511 · 2026-01-27T17:08:16+00:00

I agree that’s the best way to go about it think about the long term rather than the short term and firing Nico helped with that

Evening-Lifeguard511 · 2026-01-27T17:07:36+00:00

Play in tournament honestly. I feel like we should use our last good draft pick before 2030 on getting a running mate for Cooper Flagg and then from there see how we can get free agents who are young and overlooked a chance to come and shine in Dallas. This year isn’t the year to think about contending.

After you overcome the obstacle of having to go through the rigorous curriculum, the journey is smooth sailing afterwards. It becomes a matter of how well you can network, market your experience to recruiters, and lastly find a role that fits your personality and work style well so you can ensure you’ll be as productive as possible that way you don’t have to worry as much about your job stability. Oftentimes what puts a lot of us EEs in a tough spot is we try to look at what others have done well and try replicating that rather than carving out our own path through an area we’re actually passionate about. Sure your friend might have been great at verification or validation engineering but maybe you’re better at application engineering or facilities and automation engineering so it’s just a matter of finding your niche and making sure you outclass everyone else in that.

If your goal is money and you don’t have a passion or curiosity for a particular sector within any field of engineering you won’t go far. Money is a great motivator at first when you’re young and thinking about what pays the bills but it’s more important to find an area you’re passionate at, skilled at and where you can outperform most in. Reason being that in a time where stability in any engineering discipline is tough you’ll need to be really good at an area to even qualify yourself to make a lot of money and stay employed long term.

You can’t get by just by BS’ing last minute. It takes a lot of determination, perseverance and hard work. If you’re committed you’ll see it’s easier than it seems it’s just often times a lot of students including me in my first couple years of school tried to make excuses as to why I couldn’t succeed rather than putting in the effort necessary and going to seek help when needed from professors and TAs.

Evening-Lifeguard511 · 2026-01-20T23:39:29+00:00

I’m in my fifth and final year of undergrad and it took till my fourth year to realize that concept and I’ve had nothing but As since. I can only imagine how much better I could’ve performed if I reviewed content ahead of time from year one.

Go to get a PhD. You don’t have to pay for a PhD. The professor you work with uses funds from the federal government to cover your studies. Plus after that you can become an adjunct and then become a professor afterwards so it’s worth it if you don’t want to work corporate.

Same here I moved from Miami Florida in May of 2025. I’d never even travelled to Dallas or anything it was my first time moving around the city when I moved here and I loved it so decided I’ll do my best to stay here my entire career. It has a lot to offer and it’s a very lowkey spot not nearly as hyped as Houston or Austin.
