engineering/medicine/jobs (apply, companies, money, resume)

[milijana]

HI THERE!

Im a female graduating from biological engineering in FL from University of Florida. I am looking for a job in engineering industry. I don't want to make my post like a resume listing but I am REALLY having a hard time figuring out the companies and cities that would offer a job that is engineering/medicine related. SO far I had an excellent experience in neurosurgical research at my school, basically stuff that deals with improvement of computer aid softwares for neurosurgical purposes.

Anyways I am planning on working for a year, save some money and then apply for medical school so I would prefer an environment that is academic friendly but also closer to a reality than a typical college town.

Any Ideas????

PLease HELP!!!!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

I'll just throw out a couple of ideas. Both Memphis and Nashville are regional medical centers. They are home to medical schools, huge teaching and research hospitals, and corporate headquarters in the medical field.

Biological engineering is way out of my field (structural engineering), so I can't help much more than that.

DO you think that north vs. south is more beneficial for jobs in engineering fields?
What does structural engineering do?

I'm guessing here, but I would think the northeast (Boston, New York) and possibly California would be the leaders in biological engineering.

Structural engineering is related to architecture, i.e. we make building stand up. Unless we screw up . . . then they fall down! ;-)
