I don't see too many women engineers. To be sure, women are underrepresented in most technical fields, but we see a greater proportion in computer engineering and computer science than in many other fields. Typically, our women students get higher GPAs than men students and appear disproportionately more often on Dean's Lists, Outstanding Seniors lists and membership rolls of honor societies. Their job opportunities after graduation are usually outstanding. What I really want to do, eventually, is to run a company.
People skills are essential to being a successful engineer.
There they find their engineering backgrounds to be a huge advantage. In fact, many CEOs and entrepreneurs began as engineers. That being said, all computer related majors are very much in demand and have been for a long time. I can't think of any other field with equally good prospects. Many had multiple offers.
