College Majors Engineering Majors

<p>i want to work in a technological design firm (product design) in the future and am currently an engineer. I was wondering what the best engineering major would be to get into this field? Mechanical? Electrical? Computer? Help?</p>

<p>Depends on what kind of a product you want to develop (or what aspect of a product, since it will probably be interdisciplinary).</p>

3

<p>mechanical engineering, hands down</p>

4

<p>First things that come to mind are mechanical and electrical. Computer would work as well.</p>

5

<p>Mechanical + HCI (aka DGP, CHI, Architecture, design) was the route that DS took.</p>

6

<p>HCI? whats that</p>

7

<p>&I’m guessing Human-Computer Interaction aka Human Factors.</p>
