"I am currently a systems engineer at Rockwell Collins, a major avionics supplier to the commercial and military markets. Specifically, I work on aircraft performance management, which predicts fuel consumption, flight time, weight management and a host of other parameters.
It's always interesting to talk with other engineers I work with to hear about their college experiences. I have several friends that attended some of the big, well-respected engineering schools. Most of their classes were taught by grad students, and they rarely had access to the professors. My experience at Taylor was quite the opposite. I always felt like I had a real relationship with the professors and could go to them any time for help.
One of the things that really impressed me was the character of my professors. While my thoughts were challenged at Taylor, I didn't have to worry about being fed godless, naturalistic worldviews. I was very aware of all of my professor's Christian devotion - from devotionals IN CLASS, to their activities with various on-campus ministries."
