There is an automotive engineering? Right now I am in ME. I am attending South Dakota State University on an A.F.R.O.T.C. scholarship. I am going to recieve my degree and get some experience in the military. But if its going to lead me in the wrong direction than I don't think I'll go through with it.

I went to the Universitry of Rochester, and GM has it's old quadrajet plants in Rochester, and an Ac Rochester / delphi plant just down the road so they did a lot of local recruiting. I ended up with a GM scholarship and interned with them, but ended up at Xerox after graduating.

I know ALOT! of the other interns were from GMI where they had undergrad automotive engineering degrees.

I'd say if you don't have a connection like that, then join an SCCA club. Do you guys have any ASME or ME dept clubs/programs where you build racers or carts? I know there are national collegiate competions for such things. Basicly you'll need soemthing on your resume that'll make you stand out from all the other ME's, and of course the more car related it is the better.
