I have 2 years experience as a project engineer for one of the largest contractors on earth. I have been thinking of switching to the navy. One of my friends started as an E4 because of testing, and I was wondering if the same was possible for officers. Obviously I have my degree already, and would just go through the navys officer school for a couple months

Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro and CTS recruit mechanical, chemical, instrumentation and electrical engineers for IT jobs. Is this action justifiable? These engineers are recruited from top notch colleges and are deployed to non-innovative and dull jobs where the income to the project/ companies are purely based on the head count. Why wouldn't those companies stick on to the "core" IT/ Computer Science jobs rather than SPOILING the beautiful lives of thousands of aspiring engineer and making them work on some cheap non-engineering jobs?

I got into the University of Maryland for Journalism, and I would transfer into their Engineering program after my first year on campus. I want to have a full-time engineering job after school, like Monday through Friday, but also write a weekly Saturday or Sunday column for a local newspaper wherever I am. Could I do a double degree in Aerospace Engineering and Journalism? How long do you think it would take? Does it even make sense?
