TESC ASAST Electronics engineering technology?

[scorched]

Well I am pursuing the BSAST. But dont expect to get the same recognition as a full EE degree, even though the differences are a few less math classes, and a few less theoretical electronics classes.

Do really want to be an electronics design engineer? My electronics class from prior college and then air force training(but no degree) landed me in an electronics technician role and paid pretty well.
I was learning the ropes of being a true EE, but decided to go the way of computer systems as a whole. So here I am 16+ years later working on my degree again, but only because it's easier to finish with an EET vs switching to Computer Sci or Business admin. And have made exceptional money without a degree, I just want to get a masters degree or better soon, so I can get a specific job. Jeri Ellsworth is another perfect example of not needing a degree in engineering, to have a job in engineering. She is mainly self-taught and is now with the valve software designing hardware platforms for their games on smart tv's and new valve box.

If your that into electronics, buy yourself some home lab equipment if you can and just experiment. My big thing is playing with arduino and rasberry pi type of controller boards. They are cheap and can be made to do just about anything, are great for learning both electronics and computer science.

As for Straighterline, its a pretty cheap way to get credits, but I am very against them anymore due to recent changes they instituted.
