Rebecca asked Erin Berry, Collins Aerospace AddedTuesday, November 24, 2020 at 12:46 PM Are there jobs for mechanical engineers? And do you have to travel a lot as a mechanical engineer? or as electrical? I am interesting in both mechanical and electrical engineering but people tell me that there isn't a lot of jobs for mechanical engineers nowadays. Is that true? I also want to have a family and be a mom so I don't want to have to travel a lot. Do you have to travel a lot as a mechanical or electrical engineer? How do I know which one is right for me?
