I first figured out that I wanted to do some sort of engineering in one of my drafting classes my freshman year. The designing we got to do really intrigued me, but I didn't know what came next. The teacher that taught that class was a very nice person and really saw the potential in me. He encouraged me to take more of his classes which involved an engineering class and a 3D design class that used Autodesk Inventor. I took the 3D design class my junior year and I was able to take that same class again my senior year but this time I had to find something to reverse engineer. I chose a nerf gun. I took the whole thing apart and drew every single part, designed it on Inventor, and made an assembly of it which I sent off to a special design competition called Mites. This competition really opened my eyes to what is possible and what types of careers are out there.
I chose Ferris because after I did research of what different types of engineering there is out there, Product Design Engineering was what I wanted to do, and Ferris had one of the best programs. I also talked to one of my dad's friends that had graduated from Ferris with a Product Design degree and everything he told me about the program just made it so much more enticing.
My bachelor is Product Design Engineering which in theory is exactly what it sounds like, designing products. Out in the engineering world there isn't really a product design job because it is somewhat new. It is a combination of Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Design Engineering. The degree takes some key points from each path and makes it into one degree. This helps because I understand a lot about how the other sectors work and I have a little more overall knowledge.
My minor is Small Business and Entrepreneurship. This minor helps me with my dream, which is starting a business in designing and creating fidget toys for kids with disabilities. It gives me the insight to do some of the things that are crucial to starting a business and it also informs me about mistakes to avoid.
