Is engineering worth it?

<p>I am a junior in high school. At the beginning of the year, I wanted to do Civil or Mechanical Engineering for my major. But after almost 1 semester of physics, I found out this hardcore math isn't for me. I am thinking of majoring in industrial engineering since it doesn't require hard physics-like classes but none of the UC schools have industrial as a major. Is it worth it to do industrial engineering major or should I just try to go for a mathematics major at a UC school.</p>

<p>Berkeley has industrial engineering as a major. Other California publics with industrial engineering are CSUs: SLO, Pomona, East Bay, and San Jose.</p>

<p>But if “hardcore math isn’t for” you, would industrial engineering or math be the major for you?</p>

<p>i am good at math. I am just terrible at physics. I have heard industrial engineering doesn’t require as much physics as other engineering fields.</p>

<p>It is true that industrial engineering is more heavily math and statistics based and less physics based than other engineering majors. However, you should still expect to have to take a year of calculus-based physics for scientists and engineers, plus some additional physics based engineering courses.</p>
