Engineer at Sea

Apparently there is an engineering themed voyage coming up for the short-term summer of 2011 and to promote this voyage to engineers, Semester at Sea interviewed me on the educational value of the voyage. I told them that studying abroad is extremely valuable for any engineer because we often do not realize the global implications that the products that we work on have. I also said that the classes might not help obtain an engineering degree, but the experiences that you have during the whole voyage will help you in your professional career and help you become a better global citizen to the world. I definitely recommend any of my fellow engineering friends to do this voyage, it is only a month long so if you are able to get an internship you can probably do both and it is also much cheaper than a normal voyage. Be on the lookout for the promotional video for this voyage because I will more than likely be on it.

Also, tomorrow is Neptune day which means tonight is the last night I will have hair. I haven't had a haircut this entire voyage because I figured that I am getting a free one soon. I'll make sure to update after Neptune day.
