<p>We’re Californians and my eldest daughter graduated from SUNY Buffalo in 2013 with an EE degree. She came back to California and the industries out here didn’t know a lot about the SUNY system, so initially, she had to prove herself when compared to the UCSD grads during interviews. </p>
<p>She is now working as a “software” engineer for a big international engineering firm and she has blown away the managers who have asked her a LOT about her SUNY education:
Why SUNY Buffalo? Answer: full scholarship,
How did you come up with the idea of a management priority spreadsheet? Answer: it was a requirement of a leadership course that all engineering majors needed to complete at UB.</p>
<p>She was recently promoted to the management track, and her employer is paying for her graduate studies for an MS in CS. She just returned from a management training in Washington DC this past week and she was the youngest trainee there.</p>
<p>Not saying that this will happen for you, but you can share with your parents. We are very proud of her and I keep hearing really good feedback from a third party that our daughter has been a phenomenal addition to the company. </p>
