Me and my girlfriend are both juniors in EE and currently are trying to find internships/co-ops for the summer. I think I have a decent shot at getting one because of an internship last summer, but she's really worried about not finding an internship which she equates with being able to find a job upon graduation. Did anyone here find themselves in a similar situation and have some advice about finding a internship besides apply to anything in sight? Alternatively, how hard is it to find a job upon graduation without any previous internships? For the record, she has a GPA of 3.3

Skycks posted:Would it be prudent to double specialize as an Electrical Engineer? Like most EE's I'm assuming, I'm most interested in Microelectronics and communication circuits and the like. So I want to take that sequence of courses. But then all I hear is if you want it to be easy to find a job after graduating, the High Power route is the way to go, because every big building and city grid in America needs EE's to do the job. I was also wanting to get a minor in computer science to go along with my first specialization. Is this a good idea to have all these tools under my belt so to speak, or should I just stick with one specialization? I'm kind of dual specializing right now. I'm a junior in EE and I'm going to be taking classes in power and digital design. I'm primarily interested in the digital design, but as things stand now it's very hard to get an internship in that area. Right now, I've gotten 2 internships in the power industry. I figure with 2 specializations power will provide the job, and when the economy improves, I'll have the option to find a job I'm more interested in. As for the computer science minor, what is the difference between that and a double major in CPE/EE? It seems that CPE would be the equivilent of a EE with a CS minor. pimpology 101 posted:Sophomore computer engineering major here. Your software experience looks fine. I've found that listing projects that you've done, especially if you've done them in your free time, will help you stand out from the crowd.
