education

Yeah I will be graduating from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. I have a full ride there and it is a commuter school, so I can stay at home with my 'stang. My degree will be in Electical and Computer Engineering, specializing in computer programming and architecture. I want to get a job at Ford in the calibration department (I know someone there, but I am still dreaming). I will graduate this summer.

I don't have any auto tech classes under my belt (except for auto class in high school, but due to cuts in the budget the wood-shop teacher was teaching auto shop, and he knew nothing, so I taught the class). But from what I have heard, in MI you can take a test to get your mechanics license without classes.

I have quite a bit of real world experience, though. Growing up, my dad had me seriously wrenching when I was 10 (I am 22 now).

It's cool to hear that there are so many people with education here on this website. I mean, I don't judge people that don't have an education, but it's nice to know I am not the only nerd (j/k).
