Antenna Design as a Career
Hi everyone,
I’m in the final year of my ECE degree. Last semester I had a Microwaves and Antennas course and even though I didn’t focus on it much at the time, I remember really liking the antenna part of it.
Now I’m thinking of revisiting the field and learning antenna design more seriously. What skills or prerequisites are important if someone wants to get into this area? I’ve studied subjects like Communication Systems too, but never enjoyed them that much — are they strongly related to antenna/RF work?
Also, what kind of career paths are available for people who enjoy this kind of work? Apart from antenna design itself, what other related fields or industries should I explore?
And how is the current job market for antenna/RF engineering? Are there good opportunities in this field right now?
Would really appreciate any roadmap suggestions or insights.
Thanks.
