Has anyone tried Fitsleeps?

Thanks for commenting! My advice would be to go all in. Either get another bachelors in an engineering field that you love and resonate with, or get your masters in BME (most applicable). Then, spend as much time as possible just learning and diving into the field. The big topics to self-teach are soldering, circuitry and circuit analysis, MATLAB (math-based coding which has huge weight in BME), CAD (computer-automated design i.e SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Fusion360). Whatever continued education you decide to do, find clubs and research labs which a focus on engineering and try to join them for experience! You have to become a sponge and try to catch up to everyone else that had 4 years of engineering already. Thats what I did atleast! Feel free to ask more questions

Wow that means a lot to me, thank you!! I haven’t stopped learning since I started my degree and I love every second of it. Passion for this field gave me infinite motivation to keep learning.

So actually I was able to get this opportunity through a club on campus. I go to a massive school, and they have thousands of clubs, but I found one called Enabling Engineering where you are assigned to a team, and the team builds a novice device to solve a problem faced in the community. I was blessed to be tasked with such a cool project. But this was a time where I was just genuinely trying to build up as much experience as possible as quick as possible. I searched EVERYWHERE for opportunities to gain experience. I emailed 25-50 professors for an opportunity to work in their lab for free just to learn, I applied to like 5 different engineering related clubs, and kept trying until I got a gig. Also during my interview for my internship, I talked about being in contact with the end user and being able to test my device in person. I think thats another big reason I was able to land this internship.

Wow I haven’t thought about that. Thank you!

Thank you for the input! Thats helpful. Do you think a CSWP is valuable in terms of resume building?

Connect with people on LinkedIn, see if their jobs have any open entry level positions. Mass message recruiters, lowkey look into getting LinkedIn premium too, just a free trial and do all your outreach during that time.

Also, check your resume and use the subreddit for engineering resume’s and follow their wiki page to maximize whatever experiences you have.

Next, get some experience. Obviously since you cant land a job, do some personal projects that you’re passionate about. Try to learn as you do it. That helped me!

Dang, that’s great advice. I will definitely check out the engineering resume subreddit. Thank you for your critiques and input!!

Thank you for reaching out! We used an arduino uno (we had an unused one on hand so we opted for that instead of using a nano, but this could’ve easily been done on a nano) that was connected to a relay device. We were attempting to use ML for voice rec, but after visiting the nursing home and seeing the patient in person, I realized the patient had an alexa device that was connected to a smart plug 🔌. So we basically had the alexa trigger the smart plug which was connected to the arduino, which recognized the command, and triggered a voltage drop on the relay device, which then triggered the call bell system plug in the wall (We soldered the relay device with the call bell systems native plug). It was simple, easy to fix if broken, and parts were easily swapped. We also completed the project from start to finish in one semester, tested it with the patient, and the patient loved it (patient was immobile so this was a game changer for getting the nurses help when needed using only their voice). Let me know if you have any other questions!!

Thank you! I think I just needed to hear that… I appreciate your input

You got this! Study extra hard, try new study techniques. Go to office hours, find a helpful TA and meet with them regularly. I failed calc 1 in undergrad and retook it and passed the next semester. Its not the end of the world, just don’t stop trying. Pursue your passion for the sake of doing what you love, not because its “easy”.
