I'm a qualified mechanical engineer (had my graduation ceremony yesterday) after 4 years of uni. I'm still not done, i'm doing a masters part time so i'll have a bit of extra qualification.
I also work for a consulting company who deal in electrical and automation engineering. Basically we design and impliment any automated conveyor systems, robots, pump systems etc etc. Not a bad job, get to see some cool **** (like where they make mars bars, coke cans, underground mining operations) but not really what i want to do for the rest of my life.
In future i'd like to be working for a car/bike racing team or designing aftermarket performance parts for cars/bikes or working for a company who design stuff for the military...hmmmmm i've got lots of big plans, might be time to get off the miniriders.com forums and do some uni work!! HAHAAH
