I am going into my 3rd year of electrical engineering and deciding what electives to take for the end of my time in college and was wondering what are some good electives that are in demand and will help me get a good job when im out of school. I have 2 years of internship under my belt and am thinking about the MEP field but cant decide where in electrical engineering I wanna go.

What option offered to you ? Can you list it out so we can try to help ?

There are two classes that I recommend if you are going to work in industry: 1. Basic accounting (something like Accounting for Non-Business Majors). A person with a basic understanding of accounting is like the one eyed person in the land of the blind. Knowing the difference between an expense and a capital asset will make you the oracle of the engineering department. 2. A college level Statistics class. You probably already had it in you engineering courses but you would be surprised at how many people have no understanding of statistics.
