    I am currently a Freshman at Ole Miss and have recently become very interested in the field of aerospace after hearing a speaker from NASA at a convention over spring break. I would like to pursue a career in engineering to do so because of my love for math and the upcoming possibilities with the trip to Mars.

    Dear EngineerGirl, I am a Business administrator but I am attracted to Engineering and decided to study engineering in a master´s degree. I have been told that I do not have the personality to be an engineer, that I am not tough enough, not serious enough, specifically that I have ¨a hello kitty personality¨. What advice can you give me so I can fit in more in a tough work environment? I do not know what to do to appear more serious without changing my personality.
