I’m a student from VA, and I want to probably do business-technology in college, but another area that I’m passionate about is renewables, and the PSU-UP Energy Engg program really stood out. It is the better of 2 ENE programs in the country (the other being UNT in Denton). I’m passionate about this major, but I’m a bit worried about the difficulty of this major. Is it more difficult that EE or ME or CompE, or is it less? I don’t want to risk failing college because of an Engg major, and are the Phys, Chem, Calc and EE, MSE classes absolute killers? Thanks.
On a scale of 1-10 (1 being IE, and 10 being EE), where does the difficulty of B.S. Energy Enng lie?
Energy Engineering at Penn state is under the earth and minerals college. It’s a controlled major and as I follow my son (Petroleum Eng) at penn State it’s all about doing the work if you want the grade! It’s a lot of work!
