What’s your dream job? The answers might be more varied than you’d expect! Talise Baker-Matsuoka (Electrical and Computer Engineering ‘27) asks USC Viterbi students what they hope to do after college, from audio engineering and loudspeaker design to wastewater engineering and starting a law firm.

Choosing an engineering major doesn’t mean you need to have your whole career planned out. Some USC Viterbi students already have a specific role in mind, while others are still figuring out what interests them. As a student at USC, classes, hands-on projects, and conversations with classmates can help you explore engineering careers and discover possibilities you hadn’t considered. Whether you arrive with a dream job or an open mind, college gives you room to explore what comes next!

Choosing a biomedical engineering emphasis at USC? Dominic De La Torre (Biomedical Engineering ‘27) sits down with BME seniors Arjun Karnwal, Amee Van, and Sofia Florez to talk through their experiences and advice for students exploring the major.

From Molecular-Cellular Engineering to Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and pursuing BME without an emphasis, there are different ways to shape your biomedical engineering experience at USC Viterbi. In this episode of Viterbi Voices, our students reflect on the classes they took, opportunities they pursued, and lessons they learned along the way, including what they wish they had known before choosing an emphasis. For prospective engineering students interested in the intersection of healthcare, biology, and technology, their perspectives offer a glimpse into how studying biomedical engineering at USC can look different for everyone.

Today’s engineering project is taking over the hallway! From classroom presentations to a small vehicle’s test run, Michaela Dowd (Chemical Engineering ‘27) shows us how USC Viterbi students put their work in motion.

What does hands-on learning look like in engineering? Sometimes it means explaining your ideas to classmates, getting a closer look at lab equipment, and gathering to see how a project performs. These moments give prospective students a glimpse of academics at USC Viterbi, where building, testing, and learning alongside other students are part of the college experience. There’s a lot to learn between an idea on paper and a test run down the hall!

What happens when classroom learning meets spacecraft propulsion? In this episode of Viterbi Voices, Sophie Gettelman (Chemical Engineering ‘28) sits down with fellow students to explore the Advanced Spacecraft Propulsion and Energy Lab, or ASPEN, and the hands-on work happening inside it.

From designing and testing a Hall-effect thruster to using simulations and diagnostic tools, Emma and Mia share what it’s like to get involved in space research and engineering at USC Viterbi. They also talk about finding a welcoming community, balancing engineering with other interests, and discovering opportunities beyond the classroom. For prospective and current students, their advice is simple: ask questions, try something new, and don’t be afraid to “do it scared.” At USC Viterbi, experiences like ASPEN give students the chance to explore engineering careers, build technical skills, and find their place in the broader USC community.
