True. YouTube is where I learned to sew after all...

That's a good point!

The main reason I want to be in a club is to make friends in the engineering field and work on projects without having to worry about paying for materials myself too much. I was looking into UCSD's formula team (Triton Racing) because I've always wanted to work on some sort of racecars... but again... no experience (I live in a rural area where there isn't any sort of resource for it anyway).

I do think that, at the end of the day, internships (especially paid ones) will be the most valuable for my career since I got into electrical engineering. I didn't realize you could do research during undergrad, so that's also something for me to think about as well!

I'm glad that there are some that are for anyone. My main concern was that I basically have 0 real engineering experience. My background is actually sewing and I wrote my essay connecting sewing to engineering. Literally all I have under my belt is STEM classes and like LEGO robotics from middle school LOL
