What Am I Getting Into?

[Jim Logajan]

Do you want to be involved in the design of avionics? If so, you really need to get a degree in electronics with plenty of computer science thrown in. A typical college EE course should also provide enough physics background to get the grounding in basic aerodynamics you'd need, since modern avionics is a broad field that includes all sorts gadgets.

I want to pursue a career in avionics/aviation (pilot) and I want to know some basic information on the career, what is expected from me, requirements, where to study etc. I want to get a better knowledge about what I am getting into. Thanks.
