【长期加分贴】我为什么喜欢我的专业？【EE篇】

I hope I can contribute in english. I went to an ivy league school, and when I finished my first year, I was very determined to not study a stem field. I had done a lot in math and biology in high school and I felt that now was my time to explore other topics that were important to me. I had very encouraging english teachers at the time, and thought that I wanted to write poems and study english. I also felt that college math was so much harder than high school math, and that so many of my classmates were better than me and I couldn't catch up.

However, at the end of my freshman year, my math teacher, who was a post-doc at the time, gave his final lecture to the class. In the last 10 minutes, he began to cry, and explained that he would not be returning to my school to teach, and that he wanted to let us know how even though math can seem different at the time, all you need is to be passionate and work hard at one part of mathematics. I felt very inspired by his speech and wanted to reexplore the possibility of studying math further.

During my sophomore year, I spent a lot of time changing majors and trying to make sense of my interest in both math and english. I ultimately got my major in mathematics, and am very grateful to all the teachers I had that encouraged me this far. I was pretty nervous making the decision at first but am so happy now. I work as a quantitative researcher now and really like being surrounded by a community of mathematians. Also, the older I get, the more I find it interesting to see connections between different fields that I am interested in. I hope that more people can share my passion for multidisciplinary education!

生活所迫

我的专业是ECE，也就是硬件软件都可以做的专业，曾经在Analog devices Inc工作过一年多，主要是做FPGA和IC。 一开始的时候喜欢EE是因为想做机器人，感觉芯片上电流通过的感觉很酷，哈哈哈，有点中二。刚开始学的时候以为EE就是设计电路，分析电路能效的专业。结果后来发现了FPGA，可编程电路，就打开了新世界。学到了fourier transform又是一个新世界，当年教授跟我说，Fourier transform可以apply到世界上所有的东西上，笑死。 但EE确实有点枯燥，但也正因为这样，市场对EE的需求还是非常稳定的，毕竟输入比较少，随着tenure的增加，EE的含金量会越来越高。

那简单一些～，不是错误的事情，喜欢什么便做什么～

谢谢分享

芯片听起来很酷就学了，后来结合cs的课，学习了计算机中各个抽象层的原理。
学到了很多专业技能。发现，只要motivation足够有价值，solution自然而然会有人想出来的。
学校教技能多，自己要多思考什么application才是有价值的。
有时间想多学学数学，喜欢，也认为有价值。

求米！感谢！

我在国内是985天坑专业的，当时也是热门专业入学时收分比计算机类的都高不少，但是毕业后沦为天坑，我学经管的朋友比较多给我指了条道去券商做实习，想着申请海外商科硕士转金融，阴差阳错没有满意的MFin项目录我，录了个排名高的BA项目，入学后我也学得挺认真，sql python ml学得飞起，找工作运气好找到了个中厂ds，工资wlb都很好，在考虑读个OMSCS项目转码

ECE超级广，有很多不同track。本科的时候可以尝试各种不同的领域，从搞硬件到搞软件，从搞嵌入式系统到搞网络通信，啥都感兴趣，啥都能试一试。

. check 1point3acres for more.后来慢慢就有机会和同学一起搞设计和开发新酷炫的东西，比如硬件设备、嵌入式系统、电路板。这就是你可以把自己的创意变成实际东西的机会，可以改进已有的技术，还能发明新的科技方案。而且专业知识还可以用来改善大家的生活。比如，可以搞出智能家居设备，医疗器械，甚至是穿戴设备，还可以参与解决环境问题，提高能源效率。我本科时跟教授做过一个关于医疗设备的research，可以提高病人的诊断准确性，减少了需要活检的次数。

但现在就是找工很痛苦，应该早点确定自己最感兴趣的方向，要不然会像我一样啥都懂一点，但在不同方向都有人比我强。。

求加米

我的专业是通信，当时是因为它最热门选的。后来发现很适合自己，我喜欢数学，通信专业有很多数学课，专业课也和数学密不可分！大学毕业工作也容易找，并且工资也相对高！

不过据说现在通信专业很冷门了，有些大学还要撤了这个专业。真的是风水轮流转啊，感慨万千！

我的专业 让我跟同学非常深入地沟通过 给了我去欧洲非常好的学校交换的机会 还给了我们全班去印度（一个otherwise不可能去的地方）实习四个月的机会
