    Technically I'm a machinist but I end up doing plenty of engineering. (and re-engineering when the engineers send us plans for things that can't be built, or just shouldn't be built the way they want them.)

        NO.



        You have to have slogged your way through integration and differentiation and impossible numbers (negative overdrafts not included) for it to count... not to mention knowing the difference between enthalpy and entropy...

        There is no such thing as a pink billiard ball... (the one thing I remember most from my thermodynamics courses)...

        And you need to know how annoying SHM is... and that's not a misspelling of FHM

        It was tough and I hated much of my first two years of the course (maths, maths, more maths and added maths, and maths under a different name just so you didn't suspect it was another maths course, followed by practical maths...) but I am very glad I am an engineer now. One of the best decisions I ever made.

          I'm just in my first year or Aerospace engineering, but I am going to switch to Mechainical engineering.

            I was an engineering student for a year at NJIT. ME.

            Then I left, now I'm an english major, but I'm a marketing assistant at an engineering firm. I have to deal with civil/sanitary engineers on a daily basis.

            Here is a tip for all your engineers out there: Learn to write. Half my hours of work are spent turning "engineer-ese" into legible english. I'm not even talking about the technical mumbo-jumbo, I mean basic stuff like commas and spelling words and making actual complete sentences. Its not really all that hard.
