FBI or Engineer?
In my last blog I talked about wanting the Federal Bureau of Investigation as my career goal. However, I'm not so sure anymore. The math class I am in right now is trigonometry/Pre-Calculus, and I really like that class. I have always been a fan of math and to be at this level of it and understand and like it, it amazes me. One day I was in class and my teacher mentioned the math we are using is what engineers use to built building and structures. I was surprised because, not that it was extremely easy but I understood it and i really liked it.Ever since that day I kept thinking it over and of what I should do. I did a little more research on the different types of engineering careers. There are so many different types of engineers and most of them sound so interesting, however the one that caught my eye more was Aerospace Engineer. They are the ones that built, analyze, and test aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, missiles, and rockets. I'm the type of person that when I look at an object I wonder how it's made. Due to that I think engineering would be a great career path and a very interesting one.
When I told my parents about changing my career path they were very ecstatic. They completely agreed with it and preferred this career then me being in the FBI. Although it may seem I'm also completely on board on being an engineer, I am not. Im so confused on what I should so because I love both of the career paths so much. On the bright side I do not have to make an official decision yet. I still have time.
Who says you can't do both. Engineering is what you can study in college and the FBI is where you can work, as an engineer or something else (they have many career fields).
ReplyDeleteI studied math and computer science in college and then spent about 10 years working as an engineer in the US Navy.
If you really like math, other fields to consider in college are: computer science, statistics, or math :)
This is very helpful! Thank you so much, I really do love both subjects and now I guess i do not need to choose(:
DeleteAna I think its great that you want to persue a career in FbI. I would love to work in criminal investigation and although they are exactly the same they have the sam qualifications. You also need the same work ethics for both forces. I hope whatever decision you do make, provides a good future for you because from reading your blog you seem like a very dedicated and inteligent student. I cant wait for you to make your decision, I hope you'll give reasons on why you made that choice.
