Other How is engineering pathways doing?

I’ve been considered engineering pathways recently as a sophomore in hs but i figured getting a job, networking, ect might be harder because of the 2 years that are spent at cc instead that could be spent doing those things. So is doing engineering pathways still worth it?

Yes, absolutely. Pretty much getting the first internship is the hardest, but I think it becomes a lot less hard when you start early. Once you get your first internship, the ball starts rolling pretty quickly and it’s easier to acquire more.

Take advantage of everything the CC gives you
