I happen to love engineering. I love figuring things out in a spatial sense, that whole realm of working with mechanical parts, and the relationship of the parts, and things like ratios and the speeds of particular objects.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like engineering, but I love the creative input.
Engineering is a fantastic base for any career.
At its heart, engineering is about using science to find creative, practical solutions. It is a noble profession.
I was always fascinated by engineering. Maybe it was an attempt maybe to get my father's respect or interest, or maybe it was just a genetic love of technology, but I was always trying to build things.
My background educationally is physics and economics, and I grew up in sort of an engineering environment - my father is an electromechanical engineer. And so there were lots of engineery things around me.
So I went for engineering, specifically product design, which I enjoyed.
No matter what engineering field you're in, you learn the same basic science and mathematics. And then maybe you learn a little bit about how to apply it.
I like - I love calculus. I love linear algebra, probability and statistics, that kind of stuff. I just really like that.
Engineering stimulates the mind. Kids get bored easily. They have got to get out and get their hands dirty: make things, dismantle things, fix things. When the schools can offer that, you'll have an engineer for life.
I was going to engineering school but fell in love with physics.
