Welcome! Pretty common question here, what grade/university are you in at the moment?
I like how you quoted "female".scorz wrote PS: We have "female" developers.
Not stupid at all. I do the same from time to time! I am very attached to my computer even though it is just a tool.Melissa wrote It's stupid but i missed my computer while being too focused on having good grades in Biology.
Firstly, there is nothing intrinsically masculine about computer engineering. Secondly, on the contrary, companies nowadays are specifically looking for women since there are very few of them in the industry. These people who are telling you that nonsense have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. Not only are you doing something you love (which is the most important thing), but you are doing something that has amazing job prospects, especially because you are a girl.Melissa wrote Some people still tell me that Computer Engineering is not for girls, because people prefer to employ boys, so i really don't know and i'm kinda lost
Welcome to the forum :)
Welcome on board!
Growing up (now I am pretty old), I found a lot of my best buddies on this forum. I hope the same happens to you.
The guys/ladies around here are usually the best and the community is pretty decent in terms of ethics and even writing rules... so enjoy the stay!

I know exactly what you mean, I had the same reaction from people around me when I told them I planned on becoming a biomedical engineer. But you know what? I went with what I wanted. I've been working in the field for 6 years, and dare I say I can run with the best of them.Melissa wroteHonestly.. I don't know. Maybe because i had good grades at school so automatically i wanted to be a doctor? ( lebanese logic)tt400 wrote
Welcome, Melissa. So did you really always want to be a doctor or did you just think you wanted to be a doctor? Because from what I'm reading it seems like it's a case of the latter. But I'm glad you ended up doing what you loved; that's always a good thing in itself.
My future was pretty well planed, i just changed my mind really quickly i didn't want all these things anymore..
So it was a kiddy dream and giving up on it makes me a little disappointed in myself sometimes, but deep down i know it's not what i want.
It's stupid but i missed my computer while being too focused on having good grades in Biology.
Some people still tell me that Computer Engineering is not for girls, because people prefer to employ boys, so i really don't know and i'm kinda lost
Anywho, from one tech-crazy girl geek to another, I welcome you home.
Welcome to the family Melissa ^_^
well i am thinking about majoring in CCE or CS, a bit too lost between the two.
anyways, what universities are you considering most?
