can anyone here in the industry advise me on the current job outlook and the types of jobs a EEE diploma holder can look to secure?
thanks a million for your replies.  |
IMHO, I don't think you should waste time changing your course of study. Engineers still earn lots of respect in banking. Just finish ASAP and join me on the dark side. I have a SP ME dip and overseas engineering degree. But I also have an MBA and CFA and have been managing funds for many years. There are lots of engineering grad on the dark side. A bright friend of mine with an EEE degree (no MBA) with a German bank makes over 500k per year. In fact in my first job in investment banking, my direct supervisor and his superior were EEE graduates.
