what kind of electronics modelling?

I work as a power electronics engineer, and spend a lot of time maintaining and extending our custom power conversion simulation stack.

last year I re-wrote it all in NumPy, and refactored it to use a proper hierarchical OO model, which lets you write simulation scripts in a very nice declarative style.

why the fuck would I care about being humble on 4chan lmao

>>10640504
will actually be getting into AI once I have enough software out there to guarantee me a cushy income for the rest of my life by just managing/updating the existing software

>>10640505
Paid my way through college and then some by making online courses teaching uni level maths to retard engineering students :-)))

>>10640506
well it's not that hard if you're good at it. So easymode for me, at least

>>10640510
Microelectronics, mostly scattering/radiation modelling for transmitters/receivers in consumer electronics like smartphones

Hey man, I'm about 25, have a background in mathematical modeling and physics but no advanced degrees.

Is going back to school for a MSc/PhD worth it? Do you learn enough that you couldn't learn on your own? I'm debating sending in my application for next round.
