Discovering my Major

Choosing what you are going to do for the rest of your life as you enter in college can be a little bit terrifying. I’ve been shaping my major as I continue figure out what I enjoy in college. I began wanting to do environmental engineering and helping the earth, but that quickly changed. Environmental deals largely with water and I wanted to work on solar panels, wind turbines or other alternative energy systems. Therefore, I decided that I could do a large portion of those things within mechanical engineering, my major today.
Since deciding Mechanical Engineering, I have pursued a concentration in design after a class at WPI, Intro to Computer Aided Design (CAD). I noticed that I thoroughly enjoyed the class and that’s the most important thing: enjoying what you do. Your going to continue with your job for the rest of your life, may as well be fun.
