Hi all!

I’m currently doing a masters in engineering at a top school in the US and I’m currently finding a strange issue with one of my peers.

The person in question essentially joined my team in a very scummy way and he won’t contribute to assignments or anything. They’re very unskilled in the subject matter, but instead of using that as motivation to learn some new skills (they signed up for the course for a reason, right?) they continuously use this as an excuse to not work.

They spend extended periods entire time after classes networking with the professor (who is a kind and very well connected man) and trying to exploit my prof’s professional connections to their advantage.

Earlier in 2023 I took a corporate job I was overqualified for. I pretty much took it because my parents and former research advisor were cornering into getting a job (read, ANY JOB) ASAP. I have my recent bachelor’s in STEM (and plenty of research experience to back it up) and this company interviews me out of nowhere for a company I didn’t apply for but had my resume from a career fair and hires me (and me, being desperate due to the job market, take the offer). I thought that the company was bringing me in to put some of my skills to use (and I made a mistake on not asking enough good questions during my interactions with them, although they misled me for a few of the ones they did an

Diario se ve a gente peleándose en este sub (y otros subs de ciudades mexicanas) sobre el tema de la gentrificación/desplazamiento de locales por extranjeros.

Como el título dice, mi pregunta es: ¿Por qué el gobierno actual se ha rehusado implementar alguna regulación?

A mi me suena tan sencillo como mejorar los mecanismos de entrada y salida al país, establecer un impuesto a trabajadores remotos, establecer nuevas clases para migrantes en el INM (como crear una visa formal para nómadas digitales por ejemplo), establecer responsabilidades fiscales más bruscas a trabajadores remotos, regular a AirBnB/similares, mejorar el sistema de regulación de compra/renta de propiedades, etc etc etc.

Hi!

I am looking to gather opinions from graduate and undergraduate students (preferably the former group, but everyone is welcome to comment!) regarding the aerospace engineering department/program at UT Austin.

What do you think of the program? What have been the positives and negatives from your experience? If you’ve had cool internship/project/research experiences, what have consisted on? If you’re now a professional in industry, where has your UT education led you? And so on :)

Seeking for general opinions on the various experiences of people in the sub (which is what the mods approved my post for).

I am trying to decide between going to GTech and UT Austin for my Aerospace Engineering MS. Looking at focusing on aerodynamics and/or GN&C (a bit of astrodynamics too).

I have a couple other options too, but based on cost-benefit, location, name, etc. I’ve figured these two are the best fit. But now, I’m struggling at deciding between the two lol.

Both programs are in person, but I can finish GTech online if I find a job mid-way.

Let’s not focus on finances for the sake of this question: Cost would be similar for both schools, and I can find funding at both schools soon after starting.

My goal is to find the best possible program that will allow me to earn some good research/project

I want to study an aerodynamics-focused (subsonic and supersonic, not so much hypersonic) Aerospace MS and I’m having a tough time deciding between Purdue, Georgia Tech, and UT Austin. As of now, I’ve visited the former two and I’ve been to the latter one in the past.

Purdue is very good for my specialty, and is of course renowned with modern facilities/labs to match, but I really disliked the town/location in Indiana.

Georgia Tech is of course extremely well renowned, but their aerospace facilities were very disappointing compared to the other two schools and the vibe of the school was weird. I don’t think they have as much aerodynamics-specific research as the other two.

UT Austin has t

I was recently admitted to a well regarded aerospace engineering MS program which I’m very excited about. I also have an offer for a known mechanical engineering MS program, but I’m not very sold on it. I want to specialize in fluids/aerodynamics for the most part, and maybe also pursue opportunities doing propulsion, so that’s why aero makes more sense to me.

My current skills, interests, and heart predominantly lie more on pursuing the aero masters as well as aerospace-related opportunities in the future, but at times I also don’t want to close myself to the prospect of pursuing mechE opportunities in, say, tech companies (think: thermal design, manufacturing, etc.) if I decide to do so i

From the OL woes, to the un creative offensive play selection, to underusing personnel (Deuce, Turpin), we did not look like the dominant team that took the league by storm the first two weeks.

I think MM and DQ massively underestimated a hungry Cardinals team (one that lost to the same Giants team we shutout 40-0 in week 1), purposefully playing a weak game plan thinking that would be enough, and ultimately costing us dearly in the process.

The season is not over, and there’s plenty of reasons to be excited about this team as they showed week 1 and 2, but we absolutely deserved to lose that game.
