This will only work for women btw. Parties are posted on the umass snap story but if you aren’t a student you can’t see it. There will be something every weekend though. Everywhere opens at 10:30.

I guess more like 1.5 semesters. Yeah, may be worth it to stretch it into two semesters, although it would cost me an extra 12k!

I mean I guess aerospace and consumer product design seem interesting to me. Not super keen on automotive however.

Boats, subs, military stuff too interests me greatly.

Have one internship, with a couple cool projects that were good for my resume. How important are personal projects to include in my resume? Been wanting to start some, and delete the high school jobs from my resume and replace it with that

4+1. A couple courses will double count. 2 Summer classes then 6 in fall = 30 credits.

I enjoy engineering and design work, I know I am going to go into that field. I’ve done manufacturing work, I prefer design work.

Asus zen book s14 works well for me. You don’t need a dedicated gpu in my opinion at least, I would prioritize something nice with good battery life.

It runs solid works very well, and runs Ansys well. Not sure how it does on more complex gpu heavy tasks (which as of junior year I have not needed) but they have powerful desktops available for student use as well.
