Possible Colleges Clemson University Penn State Carnegie Mellon

After College After college, in order to get a good job, I think I would need to already have internships while I am at college. From my internships, hopefully I can network myself to find my way to a good steady job.

Projected typical work day If I had to project a typical work day, my work day would consist of meeting between my team members on the project I would be working on, designing a solution, and then sending the solution on to the mechanics to build.
