My advice to students seeking advice is to partner-up with another student... I assume there is an electrical engineering department at your school?
Or better yet, have studied mechatronics / electro-mechanical in the first place, not that that helps now in 5th year. (That interests me: I didn't know any unis did a 5-year u/g degree, assuming OP is still u/g. But it makes sense: as time goes by, the body of knowledge just gets so big, and a new grad may be expected to know so much more than decades ago that just to cover the entry level material could take 5 years I suppose.)
