Education:
Undergrad major: Electrical Engineering. This involved too much math that I have never and will never use on the job.
Graduated
from: University of Missouri – Rolla, which is located in the middle of
nowhere.
While
attending UMR, I worked for three different companies over five co-op
terms. These jobs were in the field of
building automation and factory automation.
Experience:
Current
Job: System Bench Lead Engineer (Electrical Lab). Basically, I test software and the communication between all of
the little computers that go into full size trucks.
Employer:
GM. I currently work in Pontiac, but
will be moving to Warren this summer.
Years
of experience: 4
Current Educational Pursuits:
I’m
working on an MBA. I started fulfilling
my prerequisites for the program in the Fall of 2001. This is my eighth class in the program, so I hope to complete my
degree by the slow, part-time method in the Spring of 2005.
My goal in the MBA program is to show my current boss that I am determined to learn and develop new skills. Hopefully this will also help in acquiring promotions later in my career. Although it’s not necessary on the job, I have seen the value of having any sort of Master’s degree when it comes time to hand out promotions.
