Hi all, I'm brand new and have done a lot of reading on this site. I've recently begun thinking about becoming a Navy Officer and have noticed a lot of 'anti-N.E.' talk. And I was just curious why?
Is it b/c this site is kinda geared towards aviation? Is it b/c it can be kinda dry and boring if Physics and Math aren't really your thing? Or is there something about the program itself?
Engineering, in general, is a very well-payed position as a civ, so it seems like if you had what it takes to be a NE and liked all that Physics and Math stuff, that it would be a sought after position. But, from all the reading I've done, I hear mostly dissent.
I've begun speaking with a recruiter about going into Intel and he immediately started talking NE, which obviously leads me to believe that he's being influenced to push that b/c spots need to be filled. I had considered doing Engineering rather than Biology in my undergrad, cuz I do like it, but did Biology cuz it's more up my alley. However, the job outlook for a Biologist is shite whereas the job outlook for NE is pretty stellar, so it seems. I'm still leaning heavily towards Intel, but NE is on the radar now and I'd like to get as much info about it as possible.
Any and all comments would be appreciated, thanks.
