I had the courage to move. Although Tadros held several positions with Intel, each move was easy because of his electrical engineering background. An EE or CE degree provides an incredible foundation and extremely valuable tool in today's market. Your coursework is the launching pad for anything you want to do. However, Tadros is quick to point out that the coursework itself is not as important as learning to apply it.
Opportunities abound in research projects and summer jobs.
Tadros clearly recalls his experiences in the Bioacoustics Research Lab under the supervision of Professor William O'Brien. Tadros developed software to measure the amount of ultrasound energy that a fetus receives during ultrasound exams. When completed, the research team traveled to the University of Cincinnati and saw the equipment and software being used in a medical setting. It's unbelievable to see your work being implemented. Tadros also believes that the broad background of school and classes should be tailored by summer job experience.
