This board needs a sticky'd FAQ...

College Majors Engineering Majors
1

<p>Sounds a lot more useful than college rankings from last year. I mean just for starters, so we can get those seasonal newbs educated.</p>

<p>"Is it possible to double major in electrical and chemical engineering?"</p>

<p>"What's the difference between computer science and computer engineering?"</p>

<p>"Can I do my undergrad in mechanical and grad in aerospace?"</p>

<p>"Is it worth an extra $30k a year to go to a school that's ranked 1 spot higher?" </p>

<p>"Will I make 7-figures straight out of college and have a Ferrari and tons of girls who want to touch me in places?"</p>

<p>Questions about the different subsets within certain fields of engineering (civil: transportation, structural, etc; Mechanical: HVAC, automotive, etc) </p>

<p>Also, a copy/paste of a sakky post that has the word "banking" in it. Yeah, any of them. They're all the same. It'd save him a lot of time and save the site a lot of bandwidth.</p>

<p>Good idea. Perhaps we should discuss what should go in that FAQ here and then PM a moderator to sticky it. I don’t think they actively monitor this forum.</p>

<p>Lol. I love how my topic was posted first. ;]</p>

<p>I’m a chick intent on majoring in engineering. My only gauge of what male engineers are like is observing my peers in PLTW. I was wondering, exactly how odd is the average engineer?</p>

<p>some dudes are pretty well adjusted. some are weird as hell. EE/CS have fewer well-adjusted guys than the other engineering majors, in my experience.</p>

<p>a lot of engineering guys like to put down engineering girls though . . . see one of the recent threads for details</p>

<p>I was considering EE too. I might shock some of the more oblivious guys into puberty ;)</p>

<p>

That’s in line with my experiences as well. I don’t know why it is, but it just tends to be that way.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I have definitely NOT seen that as a trend (perhaps a few isolated cases, but that’s it). And what thread are you referring to?</p>

<p>yeah i should retract that statement. i should have posted:</p>

<p>male engineering students like to complain on the internet that their female classmates aren’t supermodels</p>
