In search of a mentor

Are there any Electrical Engineers or related scientist in need of an
assistant. I dont know many brilliant people and I am an Engineering
student and I have fellow students who will work for cheap if we get to
learn along the way. PT

In New York? Sure... go to just about any university's EE department,
and say you'd like to be a professor's assistant. In most cases, I
can't see why they wouldn't pay you.

When I was a biochemistry major, they would hold *lotteries* to work as
*volunteers*. (Mostly for the pre-meds, who were desperate for such
experience.) No such nonsense when I switched majors to engineering.

Oops, it's been pulled, but


New Underwater Camera Operator Needed
Reply to: [email protected]
Date: 2006-12-13, 9:37PM PST


The Goliath Project, a consortium of name oceanographers, is looking
for a replacment cameraman for our ocean floor mapping expedition. The
original camera operator we hired died, as his pressure suit did not
meet the specifications he promised us, and he was crushed like an egg
shell.
Worse, his camera module likewise could not withstand the pressure,
and salt water leakage ruined the footage. So we must start again, at
our expense.

We need a replacement camera operator with their own pressure suit
(verifiable to be able to withstand at least 50,000 psi), camera and
camera module (likewise verifiable to withstand the same pressures)
immediately. No pay, but copy, credit, and great crafty. This is an
AWESOME chance to work with a GREAT team of well-known oceanographers
and make great connections in the biz! Please send link to underwater
demo reel, resume, and exact specifications of your pressure suit.
You will need to provide your own transportation to and from the ocean
floor. We will however supply all needed cable and oxygen, free of
charge. We are already three weeks behind schedule, please reply
immediately.

Don't delay; Goliath Awaits!

* Location: Off Hawaii Coast
* It's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other
commercial interests
* Compensation: copy, credit, great crafty, funeral expenses
guaranteed if necessary

Did I do my math wrong? 50K psi is approx. 3400 atmospheres, which
at 33 feet depth per 1 atm, gives about 103 feet?

You could do that with scuba, for a little while, if you know how
to decompress.

What am I missing? Did I divide when I should have multiplied?

Thanks!

I go to TCI the professor's dont pay or even have assitants

You will need to go to a University to find these professors. Not
junior colleges, not Technology Institutes, probably not even a state
college. A University.

Wait - 3400 atmospheres * 33 feet = 112,000 feet?

Are we talking "The Abyss" here?

Do they have any of those liquid-filled suits? ;-)

Thanks,

Haave you tried the co-op program at your university? Almost
everyone (one PhD counterexample) I know we hired in the last 10
years did at least one year as a co-op.

you did,

units is a neat program.

You have: 50000 psi
You want: miles water
