What Career Path Would You Take?
1) education:BSEE, MSEE, MBA (in progress)
job: Dilbert at Fortune 10 company. I read Dilbert everyday and laugh...not because it's funny.
I can't complain too much because the pay is OK and my monthly transp allowance pays for most of the S.
2) Would've rather used my EE skills to design high-end audio equip. Start my own company designing and building esoteric, outlandish, extremely high quality audio gear. Particularly amplifiers. The kind you build using one solid block of aluminum that is milled out to support components. The kind you need AC-DC rectification to support the gobs of juice you'd need to power it. Alas, this cottage industry has gone the way of the dodo.

u have degree in MSEE and u are doing MBA? wow. sounds like u were doing analog circuit. I am ph.d doing VLSI, gonna have to take my qual soon. Trust me, U wouldn't like a job in EE that much
I don't like it at all, I kinda want to do MBA more.

Best wishes on the PhD!!

Besides, the male/female ratio is significantly better in bussiness/econ school than in engineering(specially EE)
