Skills required
Im currently finishing up my first year as an EE student and heading into my 2nd semester. Now that Ive survived the basics of calculus and introductory circuits, I want to start building a skillset that actually makes me stand out when internship season rolls around.
I know the degree is the foundation, but what are the practical, "non negotiable" skills that arent always taught in depth in the classroom
Is C++ the standard or should I pivot to Python for automation/data? How much MATLAB vs. Verilog should I know?
Should I be buying a breadboard and an oscilloscope now? What kind of personal projects actually look good on a resume?
Is it worth learning AutoCAD for technical drafting, or should I jump straight into PCB design software like Altium or KiCad?
