Hi everyone,
I am still uncertain about what I want to major in, but engineering (specifically industrial, aerospace, and/or biomedical) is something that seems really interesting, is in-demand, and is lucrative. I'm not that great at physics, but I'm really good at math. However, I was wondering if it matters as much as some other degrees where you went to undergrad, when employers check your résumé. Since I am just beginning to explore the field of engineering, I'm not sure if I want to get a master's or not, and so does the college you went to still matter to employers? The University of Arizona is my hometown university, and I was wondering if I decide to go here (ranked around #40 in engineering) for the in-state tuition, versus going a higher ranked, more highly-regarded university, will have a large impact on employment opportunities and career success. Should I go to the UofA to save money for a more prestigious grad school? Again, I have not even applied to any colleges yet, so right now this is just out of curiosity.
Thank you!
