Eric B Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Right now Im a senior in high school deciding what I wanna do with my life. I thouht I wanted to go to school for Architectual Technology to become a Architectual Draftsmen because im pretty with good AutoCAD. But Ive always wanted to go to Mobile Dynamics and do the whole 8 week program to learn how to install both home and automotive but I heard you dont make that great of money. Then I though more into audio like Accoustical engineer and all that and couldnt think of much more careers...anyone know of any that are good paying and 2year college degree( I dont have the qualifications to go to a 4 year) jobs?

AI James Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 accoustical engineering pays if you work for a big company, if you go through all the hassle of getting a degree though i wouldnt waste it on an audio shop unless your going to own it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinT Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 See Im a freshman at Baylor right now and Im trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I thought about doing acoustic engineering but they dont have that here. And if I turned my hobby into my career, just like burrito said, I dont think id be as interested in it. As of right now, I wish I was an engineer at DD. Now, how do I get there/ Quote "IT SOUNDS SLOW MOTION AND STUTTERING"~~~~LOL 2 15" Fi BTLs 7.5 cf box @ 33hz Sundown SAZ-3500D Powermaster S3400 & D3100 Iraggi 300a alt SecondSkin - totally dead Knu wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH8PunkRok Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 i was lookin into acoustic engineering and electrical engineering (electrical is much more practical) basically wut i was lookin to do in the future is work for bose or some real good audio company. course bose requires sumthin like 23 years of experience on the subject so it might be a while Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 (edited) Electronics is the future guys, but what ever you do, don't try & work full-time & learn full-time. It's not humanly possible. Try to get a 2 year in "Electronic technology" then you have a world of opportunity open to you like there's a fork in the road (only X1,000,000) It's a broad topic/major, then I can start an internship in audio, as an electrician, medical, industrial etc. & the company will pay ME to go for a BS, masters & eventually I WILL have a PhD That's my goal & plan!

JustinT Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 (edited) I plan on reading this very soon. Im going to buy it when I leave for christmas break with the money I get back from my books now. The Science Of Sound I skimmed it and it looks very helpful for any of you other young guys out there wanting to learn something. They even talk about loudspeakers and enclosures for them Edited September 7, 2007 by JustinT Quote "IT SOUNDS SLOW MOTION AND STUTTERING"~~~~LOL 2 15" Fi BTLs 7.5 cf box @ 33hz Sundown SAZ-3500D Powermaster S3400 & D3100 Iraggi 300a alt SecondSkin - totally dead Knu wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickyMcD Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 If you have a genuine interest is music and love the dirty work of sound equipment, you could always look at being a Sound Technician/Mix Engineer. There is nothing quite as satisfying as having the power of a full line array under your little finger, or turning 40+ mic signals into a musical masterpiece. I love it, and I think you may as well.
