congrats man. canada eyy? what kind of job will you be doing?
Thanks dude. I'll be training under a team of hydrotechnical engineers for a consulting firm based in Edmonton. They deal mostly with land reclamation, but have a few large dam and infrastucture projects that'll give me the chance to do some travelling to the US and Asia if I'm lucky.
It's exciting for me, but I'm nervous as hell lol. I've learned so much, but still feel like I'm walking into it blind. I guess that's why we need 4-8 years of training on top of the degree before even having a shot at a professional job.
gonna take a 5th year to finish up my BS in geospatial engineering and minor in computer science
Yeah I needed 5 years as well, but had to take prereqs my first semester and wasn't a full time student my second semester. Geospatial engineering seems pretty interesting. Do most engineers in your field work for the government(army, airforce, etc)?
