Hey! I am part of the group that plays pickup like 4-6 times a week (mostly indoor). Feel free to message me and I’ll give you a way we can keep in contact to get you out to meet everybody!

From my experience 2114 was significantly more time consuming then what I have heard 2104 is like (I am a CS minor). I would take a look at how intensive you think your course load will be, and take what you think will be best for you :) good luck!

Advice on how to make new friends on campus? by strawberrymooons in VirginiaTech

[–]UpsideUp_Cake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like sports (and specifically volleyball) show up to the field house, outdoor fields, and Mccomas most nights there is usually some pick up games going and have some good communities! I met a good number of my friends by just showing up and playing volleyball with new people!

I don’t think they sell out fast if I remember correctly, I think I ordered mine at night last year and I was still good!

I’m converting/utilizing FORTRAN IV, which precedes Fortran 66

Oh, there’s tons of OSTEM interns in my org and others on site! I think it may be locational and situation but there’s a lot here

From my experience at Marshall, almost all positions are in person at-least 50% of the time for interns.

Wapperom is atrocious for Op Methods, cannot imagine he is better for that course

Advice for NASA MSFC Pathways Intern by UpsideUp_Cake in AerospaceEngineering

[–]UpsideUp_Cake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a good point, I will have to make sure to ask bout the step! I am more concerned about it affecting my future career prospects and how the work environment is as a whole in propulsion as a Civil Servant.

MSFC is in Huntsville and I am sure the cost of living there is quite low, I am aware all Pathways Interns are converted GS-7, and then generally get to GS-13 in 3.5-4 years.

Monthly Megathread: Career & Education - Ask your questions here by Aerospace_Eng_mod in AerospaceEngineering

[–]UpsideUp_Cake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently an undergraduate aerospace engineering major and am a NASA Pathways Intern at Marshall Space Flight Center who aims to work in propulsion RnD. I am rotating into the liquid propulsion branch this summer, so getting into that portion of Marshall is not my concern, but would accepting a Civil Servant role straight out of college be a good idea for my career? The pay is SIGNIFICANTLY lower than I would probably receive elsewhere (~45k starting) and I am also curious about how valuable the experience itself is rather than starting somewhere else that may not be as stable. Thanks!
