Internships would probably carry more weight than certifications. Get a great internship and try to do all you can to prove you have the skills to be hired on. For engineering I doubt an MCSE or an A+ would help you at all. There are certs for testing and certs for specific software. If you know your field uses a certain software package, get certified in that.
