I have a long way to go before even start to think in that kind of stuff, but seeing the laboral market in chile not having such interesting job (there are few jobs for engineers to do actual engineering stuff imo) I find an appealing possibility to get into academia instead.

So it seems interesting to ask if anyone here has experience in academia and if is in general a good idea.

Dude engineering doesn't specifically say autists only....but it's only autists. You'll be fine

I have already realized that, outside of Industrial Engineering, the faculty is very autistic indeed.
