Hi,
I'm a high school senior and I was wondering what type of careers there are avaiable for the automotive field. I don't mean a mechanic or someone who works at local shop, but like someone who works at Toyota, Lexus, etc. I don't mean as a salesmen or someone who works at dealerships either. I may like to be someone working "behind the scenes," designing, testing and creating the cars.
The problem I can't find that much info on these people because they are not often recognized. What are these jobs "called"? I do know that I love cars and want to be around them a lot when I grow up.
I also desire that the job be somewhat lucrative, like eventually 100K per year? Thought I really like cars, I dont think its a fair trade off to be constantly around cars and then not be able to afford some nice ones, you know what I mean?
I was hoping some of you here could shed some insight on this for me, like what would I have to major in college, etc. I'm thinking some mechanical engineering with maybe some computer stuff??
I really have no idea about this, please help.
