still looking for a thesis project in AE, but not much luck so far. most likely wouldn't have a funded one if I did find one.
probably going to switch from Aerospace to Engineering Science (still MABE department). very high potential for a funded project for a M.S. that would deal with the lab/SIRC I've worked with for the past 3 1/2 years. would get to have results published in several scientific journals (ASME, ASTM, etc). ES is multi-disciplinary, so i can still keep all my ME/AE courses, but thesis would be more biomechanics/mechanical kinematics related. would be very interesting and get me the hell out of school. my boss could serve on my thesis committee (a big plus).
still finding out information on it. need to talk to advisor next week to clear up a couple of questions, but i'm pretty certain that is the route i'm headed in. it will give me a very diverse education... B.S. Aerospace, B.S. Mechanical, M.S. Engineering Science.
more to come later.

This sounds like the answer you've been looking for. It's a bitch to have to leave Aerospace when that was your original aim, but heck, if the E.S. degree is a versatile one and covers the bases - with a funded research project, no less, and the possibility of Dave on your committee - then go for it! I never even knew there was such a degree as Engineering Science. You learn something new every day...
What the heck was Beth doing up and posting a comment at 2:21 a.m.?
You and me both (diverse education)... but all of yours relate a bit more to each other than mine will. Congrats, and keep us updated!
