Let's talk engineering. Hopefully there will being a sufficient amount of engineering students and grads to make this thread fruitful.
Students/Graduates:
Graduates:
Thanks in advance, everyone.
Students/Graduates:
- What field of engineering?
- Why did you go into it?
- In what ways did it and didn't it meet your expectations?
- Do you find the math interesting?
- How difficult is it? (Dependent on your answer to the previous question, presumably.)
- Do you find that you see the world in a new light, with such extensive knowledge of physics? I'd think that being able to calculate the numbers behind mechanical systems and structural integrity would be rather enlightening, if only for the satisfaction of being able to do it.
Graduates:
- Coming out of it, what are your feelings towards it?
- Is the work gratifying?
- Does the work pay well? Good job market?
- What bothers you most about the work?
- What would you have done differently?
- All of the above said, being interested in it at a physics level, do you think that minoring in physics along with a different major would be a potentially better option? Or do you feel that your career in engineering is the place to be?
Thanks in advance, everyone.
