I would like to become an electrical engineer. I am currently majoring in electrical engineering for a few reasons. One I have always been fascinated with electronic things such as computers and robots. During high school I was a memeber of a robotics team, as I have stated in previous posts. I was on the build part of the team and I did alot of work wiht what is called the end effector, but is in essence the part of the robot that works wiht the surroundings. I liked doing this but I was always fascinated by the controls hardware part of the team. Learning how everything was wired and how it worked always managed to fascinate me.
During college I would like to get an internship with a company that allows me to do something wiht engineering, either mechanical or electrical, I really enjoy both of those. I also can not wait for the new engineering building to be finished as this should give us much more resources to learn and experiment with technology as students here at mason. After college I hope to work for a development firm, who is working with robotics. I would one day like to invent a kind of robotic pet that follows you around and does stuff for you, such as get drinks, carry books, or anything else one would like to use it for.
