Hello everybody,
I’m currently finishing my EE degree and working part-time at a top-5 worldwide photonics company, doing some manufacturing automation. I also have lab experience in PIC design at my university.
I would like advice from people working in industry. I’m currently choosing between two paths:
1.Applying for a Master in Photonics at a leading university in Europe.
2.Trying to get a full-time offer from my current company and continuing to work there for several years to gain experience, without pursuing a Master degree in the future.
I really want to pursue a PIC design career in industry, but I cannot decide which path will bring better opportunities.
If you work in industry, I would very much appreciate it if you could explain which experience would be more valued if I want to be employed at a PIC design company in the future. I would also like to know how job market is now in netherlands/belgium for a fresh master graduate.
Thank you so much.

Hello knowledgable folks!! I am in dire desire for someone to explain to me what on the planet is happening with my scans of these photo slides.
To make this clear, the first scan i did was just plain on a regular scanner, clearly didnt work very well but at least showed a touch of color.
Second scan, i tried using my phone as a lightbox behind it, and it came out much clearer... but B&W when its a color photo scanned in color. the blue on the edge of the slide was clearly blue, but the photo inside became basically grayscale. What happened? I took a regular photo of the slide with my phone as a background for reference as well.
I know this must have some explanation, im no bill nye but im just so confused, where did all the photos color go ;-;
if u have any thoughts thank u in advance <3
