Do you have any advice for a freshman in engineering?

Before I began my journey into CU Boulder as an engineering undergrad, I was from a smaller town with a lack of technical fields in the area. When I told people that I was going to be an engineer, I would generally receive a display of doubt. A lot of people, especially ones who have never taken the engineering route, will express doubt. They could not imagine themselves doing it, so how could you? The thing is you must ignore those people, even the ones close to you. Find the people that match your beliefs in engineering at the college campus. Having a local community that can understand what you are going through and can assist you will benefit you in many different ways.
