Just starting my MEIE at 42!

I’m so excited to start my classes. I’m curious as to whether or not internships/externships may still be available for people at my age? It feels silly to ask, but I wanted to be sure either way.

How to land a job at LM

I have been attempting to land a job at LM for a long time now, but every single app has been turned down. I feel so discouraged at this point. I have been trying to focus my academics on certain areas specifically to help set me up for a career here.

I have my bachelors in supply chain and operations management, and I’m currently starting my MEng in industrial engineering. I’m 42, so I have a work history that’s mostly in healthcare administration and some work for state government before I decided to switch careers.

I change up my cover letter and resume for every different job posting. Any tips to help me get my foot in the door? I do need to have the flexibility to telecommute due to a disability. Is that where my hang up is?

MEIE

Is anyone else starting, or continuing, their graduate coursework in industrial engineering? That’s what my major is, and I’m excited to start! If you’ve already been taking classes for this degree, how has your experience been so far?

Fall 2026 Disbursement

This is my first semester of grad school, and at NMSU. The financial disbursement was supposed to take place today, but I’m not seeing any changes in my tuition balance. Has anyone had their aid applied to their balance yet?
