<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I don't seem to be able to handle this semester's EE courses. I just don't think EE is
the right thing for me. I'm thinking about switching to IE. Most of my EE friends are saying
its a bad idea. "Imaginary Engineering" seems to be a pretty widespread word.
I've only heard it in CC discussions until now.</p>

<p>I hope nothing bad happens after graduation w/ an IE degree.
by the way how is Linear Programming? (one of the IE courses I'm taking next semester)</p>

<p>You will be very fine after graduation with an IE degree. We are recruited heavily in every industry. I don't know any IE students that work hard that have had a problem landing a decent job.</p>

<p>Linear Programming can be straightforward if you have a professor that just tests the methods. If you have a professor who makes you apply the concepts behind the methods it can get pretty tough.</p>
