As An E.C.E Student, Why Should You Apply For A Software Job?

For someone who is studying Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) to apply for a software job makes sense to me. This is only one of many jobs, which could lead a student to greater knowledge. Computers are of little use unless there is software, to keep them functional. The more one knows and understands the importance of software, the farther one can go as an Electrical and Computer Engineer.

Computer programs are dependent upon well trained software designers, testers and programmers. A piece of software, which is found to contain bugs or functions not compatible with other software programs is of little value. I believe an ECE with a speciality in software engineering is one of the most valuable players, among all those who work in the industry.

There are all types of applications, codes, formats, tools and so forth, necessary to keep computers functional. However, someone who knows how to take all this knowledge and create programs that will make my computer, do what I want and need for it to do, is on my team. So, if you have the chance for a job in software design, development, testing, debugging, I do not believe you will regret taking the job. I believe your future will be brighter and more areas of the computering industry will be available to you after college, if you really know and understand the importance of good software.
