      Hi BraveFrog0!
      I do a lot of engineering as a scientist already. For example to make videos of electricity in the heart I have to put together my own software. Thankfully engineering with a computer is getting easier everyday. Other scientists and engineers put their technology on the internet, which I can borrow from and combine to do what I want.

      So to answer your question I have already taken up engineering, and I also think it is one of the most fun parts of my job.

      Dear BraveFrog0,
      Modern day technology is changing very fast! In ancient times people would use the same tools for centuries, in todays world of computing they change almost every year. I am working on changing technology every day at my job, and if you go into a technical job then you probably will as well.

    I actually started out as a chemical engineer, then switched majors during college. But there’s often a huge overlap between science and engineering. They’re often indistinguishable.

    Not too sound nosey but may i ask how much money you make during your job? please don’t answer if you don’t want to.
    If you don’t answer that question can you answer this? would you ever consider going too space and if so what planet?

    Thank You- BraveFrog0
