Sorry, we don't...I think that is more along the lines of environmental engineering.

I don't have direct experience with them, but I have heard they are good from several sources.

Not that I know of, at least we havn't in the past. Our company is relatively small and currently we are focusing on expansion to meet some of our upcoming deadlines. You could always send me your resume and I could forward it to my supervisor...

a lot of people go into mechanical engineering b/c they like cars or machines, airplanes, and end up doing HVAC since being ME you have a good background in fluids and dynamics. IMHO a person doing ME who wants to do the exciting (not saying HVAC isn't, I'm sure designing a complex system for a large skyscraper or something would be really fun!) should really try to get a master's so they can get into the thermosciences, or learn to do FEA (that's really fun, if you want I'll sne you a copy of FEMlab, you don't need to know finite element math to use it but it's really, really cool. You can model, say, the sound a muffler design will produce or the temperature distribution in a brake rotor undergoing braking, damn near everything in the world), or get into MEMS.

it's the same with EE as well. Undergrads usually (even if you go work for say Intel or Analog devices) end up doing hardware verification or designing test boards. Gotta get a pHD to do the cool stuff...
