Female Speaker: I chose
electrical engineering
because I like to know
how things work
and I like to be able
to make whatever
I feel like making.
Male Speaker:
Electrical engineering is about
solving problems
and finding solutions.
Male Speaker: Basically
it’s the basis of any like
fully integrated
system or machine.
Male Speaker: We do a lot
of sensors with embedded chips.

Male Speaker: I chose
to become an electrical engineer
because I was really
interested in building things.
I thought that when I was
building things I could do more.
Male Speaker: I’ve gotten
a lot of hands-on experience
here at Tech.
Male Speaker: The most
valuable thing that I got
out of my Georgia Tech
experience
was the hands-on work
I’ve learned here.
I’ve learned a lot
of different protocols and stuff
that allow me to really sit down
and pick a problem
or a design problem
and figure out a solution
from scratch,
and that’s been invaluable.
Female Speaker:
I think of engineering
as building things
and creating them.
Male Speaker:
So the challenging part
is that there is no test-run
really anymore.
You have to get it right
on the first try,
because once you go
and you do
the silicone fabrication
process, that’s it.
Male Speaker: I think
it teaches resilience.
It teaches you to never quit
and to always keep working
for the solution.
