Anyone studying PC Engineering

[Jonathern]

Hi i just want to find out who is into PC engineering and is there like a forum to visit, Or anyone i can talk to for more knowledge.

The usual path is to become an electrical engineer, and from there specialize in IC chip design.

Here's a listing of the best schools: http://www.greguide.com/elecs.html

Same site - this listing is for computer sciences: http://www.greguide.com/comps.html

As a general rule, you should have at least basic knowledge in both physical design (the EE side) and logical design (the CS side). You'd be surprised by how much understanding the basic logical idea behind a component can change your understanding on its physical design...(and visa versa)

Hi thanks for responding

I may have asked the question wrong but what i meant is, is there anyone who is studying as i am, and was wondering if there is a forum where PC engineers talk or in the field as i would like to know what fields can your build a career in?

well the text book im learning from is an 8 in 1 meaning 8 editions so hopefully i come across that, but i had computers in my life since pentium two and messed around with hardware seen how everything operates iv attained quite abit of knowledge through the years but still got a long way to go.

I built my first pc back in january, and I've since progressed to wanting to make some money on the side cleaning, modding and possibly repairing, so was looking for stuff to learn when I found that site, funny bits, handy bits and if you message the guy I'm sure he's nice to get on with judging by his writing
Good luck in your 'proper' studies, I'm just after enough knowledge to earn a new bike
