[quote=Anonymous]Does he really know he likes engineering? I’m a lot of ways it’s repetitive process driven work and it generally pays much less than other professional careers. I’m work for Air Force civilian — my 12 year old self loves it, my DW likes it a lot less since I don’t make much and often work 12 hour shifts during mission op Obv CS/engineering at a FAANG is (or was) a good option. But CS doesn’t have the natural gate keepers of med/law nor the obsession with pedigree and class that finance has that prevented an oversupply of talent. Good engineering schools are MIT CalTech, Harvey Mudd, CMU, GT, Mich, Purdue, etc. but if he has the chance to go to an Ivy, go there as if he changes his mind for career he will have a wealth of good options. Many engineering classmates switched to law or finance mid-program — engineering school is its own special slog. [/quote]
