Original message: "QUESTION FROM AN ENGINEERING STUDENT!"
From: <<@je>>
Hi,
I am an electrical engineering student attending
Memorial University of Newfoundland (Canada).
All my life I have been interested in marine life, and marine research.
However, I have choosen to follow a career in engineering. I am in a
co-op program (thats a program where I go to school for 4 months and then
work for 4 months), I already have excellent work experience in
communications, and I am looking to expand. This is why I am contacting
you. I was wondering if you know of any job's that exist for an
engineer in marine research. I am not looking for a job right now,
just wondering if there are any jobs out there where I could apply my
skills and thinking about what kinds of jobs could I get now
that would improve my chances later.
If you can help me out, or put me contact with someone wheo can I
would greatly appriciate it.
Thanks
J

Actually, a good person to talk to is right there at Memorial:
Dr Jon Lien. Jon has worked for years with marine mammals,
and has established various collaborations, some outside his
own field (I remember one a few years back where he got
together with a naval engineer to look at the dynamics of
whale swimming). He is in the biology department and is a
very nice guy; I suspect he'll have some good ideas.
Good luck!
