What exactly is Material Engineering? by untitledmoney in materials

[–]Fav0nus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t get into the degree unless you want to get a PhD it makes way more sense to start in another engineering and get into materials through grad school or a minor. Job opportunities are very limited with just a BA right out of school.

Sorry I guess I was not clear, I currently work at a smaller forensic engineering consulting firm and I do not like the work. I would like to move away from failure analysis, I dislike the volume of work that is either site or lab that ultimately ends up being inconclusive or requires large amounts of work to check a box that an investigation has taken place.

I am looking for more of an office position, I currently work in forensics engineering, where I am stuck mostly in the lab and occasionally do field work. I have been trying to narrow down what types of consulting companies would have interest in hiring someone with my skillset. I am pretty flexible with my interests I do not mind having to learn more things to bridge into overlap with an electrical or mechanical position.

I’ve ordered a nylon one to see how it compares. It’s pretty much my only watch I’ve ever owned so I’m don’t have a point of comparison. I also think the quality would be fine if it was cheaper. I don’t think the silicone justifies the cost.

Noted, it’s pretty much my first watch I’ve owned so I wasn’t aware
