Because of this you will be rediculed if you reply with anything related to Fine Arts or Humanities. A little more attention paid to the Liberal Arts and you might have gotten the grammar right in your title. It's the little things that count. Are the little things important in ME too? If you really must use "whom", this would be more apt: "To whom have (or has, depending on your interpretation of Fowler) a post-secondary institution granted matriculation?" or "Among us, a University degree has been granted to whom?" ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Psycho John Petrucci If there's any point where you feel it's too difficult, then just stop.

Jim McGregor	Posted - 2007.12.15 19:33:00 - [40] Edited by: Jim McGregor on 15/12/2007 19:35:10 Originally by: Crumplecorn Last year of a BSc in Computer Science. What will I do when it is over? Get a job and spend your life working to make the owner of the company richer probably.. Hopefully you'll like your job so you get something out of it. But frankly, I often wonder if there isnt a better way to have a society work than what we have now. Working to buy stuff that lose their value over time is kind of like running in a hamster wheel, isnt it...:) --- Its dead, Jim.
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2007.12.15 20:56:00 - [41] Not quite sure what the equivalent "western states" schooling would be, but it was a 5-year "package" at a technical university here in Romania, graduated as "diploma engineer" in Industrial automation (last 2 years of school mainly) and computer science (first 3 years mainly). Shedloads of math courses, a bit of programming, loads of theory in everything electric/electronic/automation you can think of but very little actual/practical experience. Our universities are... weird. Sort of. 1\|2\|3\|4\|5.
DarkMatter Sintered Sanity	Posted - 2007.12.15 22:53:00 - [42] Edited by: DarkMatter on 15/12/2007 22:55:50 Graduated from an accredited University (allows me to be an engineer for the government) with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering 10 years ago. Took my Intern Engineer license and passed that, never got around to taking my PE exam yet. Hopefully will get that done someday. Learned a lot of theoretical stuff at University, not enough practical applications... Good thing I was already a very mechanically inclined person, helps with my current job as much, or more than my degree does... Engineering technology degrees are more practical, but you won't get paid as much with that type of degree... My Current Project

Mrs Li	Posted - 2007.12.16 20:17:00 - [55] I've acquired a BA in Sociology with a Minor in Chinese. Currently, I am in China refining my language skills, teaching English for income and adventuring before I decide what to do next. Most likely graduate school, but given the high quality education i've received in the Humanities, i have myriad choices. International Relations, (international) business, economics, Law and pretty much anything that's not science and math. I acted as a translator for a University junket that went to China to study geology and ecology of a few mega-project sites. At the time, my University had almost finished building a brand new, 30ish million dollar science facility. DOn't get me wrong, they were still grateful, but they sure did complain a lot about it.

Because of this you will be rediculed if you reply with anything related to Fine Arts or Humanities. Mechanical engineering doesn't teach you spelling or grammar then huh? Oh, yeah, I'm a history student. See, this is quite an odd statement. I write as I speak, and as we all know, spoken language is regional. Out of all the engineering-related groups I've worked in, I am by far the best at the written word. More to the point, engineers need only write and speak such to the point that they are understood; anything more than this is a wasteful use of ones time. Now history on the other hand, that is quite the dead end. You focus your energies on what has been, and if you are one of the rare few, you may called upon to comment on what may be with respect to past events. I don't know about you, but I'd rather apply my knowledge to works that can be used now, or in the future rather than wait for someone else to do something interesting and record it.
Derovius Vaden	Posted - 2007.12.16 21:05:00 - [58] Originally by: Amuko Will be going to uni next year, probably aerospace engineering. May god have mercy on your soul , I just finished the last of the Fluid Mechanics (Statics/Dynamics) classes and the math involved in some flow theory is enough to make grown men weep openly.

I disagree, a degree like history shows that you are fairly intelligent, which can help you get a job. If you are good at mechanics then you aim to become a mechanic of some kind, thus you get a degree in mechanics to train you how to do a job. But in msot cases, humanities degrees are just there to prove that you can be dedicated, intelligent, creative, anylitical, etc.

I was referring to the misuse of 'whom' (you are trying to look clever, perhaps!) and various misspellings (like 'rediculous' ). I don't think that stuff's regional or even colloquial, hehehe. And yeah studying a history degree is more about the skills than the knowledge, which I think somebody else has also said. This is disregarding the fact I don't think the study of history for history's sake is a waste of time at all; I find it rather noble, but obviously the narrow-minded will not agree!

Who and whom are equally interchangable terms, I'm sorry you feel otherwise. And I believe I said "rediculed", not "rediculous", wherein both cases I've swapped an e for an i apparently. I would like to know however how the memorization of facts is a skill thats somehow only limited to the history discipline? Sciences and other applied knowledge take far more intelligence to utilize than simple regurgitation of information as seen in lesser subjects. An example of persons who can simple memorize information without the actual presense of independent thought and application of knowledge are Autistic Savants. In lesser terms, a ******** person could do better than you, me or anyone else in a history discipline. Congradulations.

I was referring to the misuse of 'whom' (you are trying to look clever, perhaps!) and various misspellings (like 'rediculous' ). I don't think that stuff's regional or even colloquial, hehehe. And yeah studying a history degree is more about the skills than the knowledge, which I think somebody else has also said. This is disregarding the fact I don't think the study of history for history's sake is a waste of time at all; I find it rather noble, but obviously the narrow-minded will not agree! Who and whom are equally interchangable terms, I'm sorry you feel otherwise. And I believe I said "rediculed", not "rediculous", wherein both cases I've swapped an e for an i apparently. I would like to know however how the memorization of facts is a skill thats somehow only limited to the history discipline? Sciences and other applied knowledge take far more intelligence to utilize than simple regurgitation of information as seen in lesser subjects. An example of persons who can simple memorize information without the actual presense of independent thought and application of knowledge are Autistic Savants. In lesser terms, a ****** person could do better than you, me or anyone else in a history discipline. Congradulations. There is more to studying history than remembering facts and dates. Analyzing and interpreting the data is somehow out of reach of most "****s".

Only about 20% of students who enter into an Engineering curriculum would graduate. I actually worked with a guy like that. He was the Engineer who did all the heavy calc's. Deflection & stress analysis, servo motor & gearbox sizing (lot of speed, acceleration & inertia calculations), whatever, anything that needed to be analyzed. He viewed himself and the Mechanical Engineering GOD. I worked my way up in the company, and soon found myself doing the same work as him. Even though he was at the company much longer than I was, when it came time to layoff some Engineers, he got canned and I took his place. His ego and bad attitude did him in... My Current Project

In lesser terms, a ******** person could do better than you, me or anyone else in a history discipline. Congradulations. Terms are either interchangable or they're not. They're not "equally interchangable". Either way, "who" and "whom", while used interchangably, are not. "Whom" is the objective form. "To whom," "by whom," "at whom;" if it follows a preposition, it's a good bet "whom" is the proper word. "Who" is the subjective. Nominative in Latin. Used for the subject of a sentence, as you did in the title. The study of History for a grammar school student is mostly rote memorization. Much as is the study of "science" for a grammar school student. However, just as the budding ME learns to take the disparate facts he has accumulated and synthesize something new, so does the prospective historian. If understanding and commenting on the impact of Louis XIV on the Industrial Revolution were as simple as memorizing dates and figures, it would be an excellent playground for an autistic savant. But seeing, connecting, analyzing, and commenting upon many individual factoids is not a task suitable for a person suffering a lack of Theory of Mind. You don't impress anyone with your dismissal of other disciplines as "lesser subjects." Especially as an engineer. Any engineer who says "meh, don't worry about being accurate there, that's not important," about anything, is an engineer who will never be working on anything I have a hand in. Edit: Heck, DV, you know that ME hardly even counts as an engineer? Are you even allowed to sit at the same lunch table as the EEs? Oh that's right. You promised not to beat them up for their lunch money if they let you hang. ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Psycho John Petrucci If there's any point where you feel it's too difficult, then just stop.

The idea was that instead of coming up with theories and then trying to verify them through lab tests and observation I instead worked the other way around and created simulations from current principles and tested them under new conditions tweaking parameters and such until it fit with observed data in order to work backwards to new theories. Anyway, when I got of the education system I polished up my codeing skills and now I work in the games development industry as a physics programming specialist.

Go back to your material engineering, DM, before you hurt yourself. One does not need a BSEng for a physics field. You need to get into the real world.

Krows	Posted - 2007.12.18 07:37:00 - [108] My E-peen is like a million times bigger than all of yours put together. I just recently changed my major to Mechanical Engineering. The work is interesting to me and I feel in the end I'll appreciate it. Too bad I haven't had calculus in two years so I'm starting from the bottom of the ladder again. I'll manage. If not, I can always grab my degree in criminal justice. What I say here... does not reflect on my corp or alliance.

Don't have a clue whether or not there are any cool job opportunities afterwards, I sort of doubt it. 'Spose I'll continue studying after I get my precious degree and specialize myself in some area, such as hydrology or something like that. If anyone knows about something fun you can work with as a geologist, please enlighten me :) If your looking for specific jobs in that field it could be hard, although I wouldn't know what exactly falls into that category. What matters is that a degree shows you have a certain frame of mind and the ability to learn such things. These things are useful in many different jobs. Ofcourse you'll benefit more in a domain specific work environment. --- Please resize image to a maximum of 400 x 120, not exceeding 24000 bytes, ty.

Originally by: Kyrall Masters in maths and physics here. Bash.org has a great quote relevant to this mocking of arts/humanities degrees. This is a pretty ancient joke (actually older than the internet) - earlier this year I did it myself with "Theatre degrees, please take one"

annoing Amarr Chuck Norris Kick Ass Corp	Posted - 2007.12.21 15:57:00 - [119] B.A. (hons) in Political History (1st) I wrote a paper on Mussolini that was endorsed by his daughter after being published by some political think-tank in Italy. I was going to do my M.A. but I got married, had kids, got a normal job, had an accident, got disabled, ran out money, couldnt get a grant and now I look after the kids while the wife works... hey ho such is life. One day I will win the lottery (I never play it so I wont hold my breath ) and have enough money to pay the fees to do my MA. Well I can dream cant I?

HippoKing Caldari GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2007.12.22 00:20:00 - [121] Originally by: DarkMatter Originally by: Motokko Masters in Astro-physics. Bow to me minions. What do you do for a living? I've always wondered what scientists make for a living. It seems a lot of you have to stick around academia and rely on grants & such. Or do you have a salaried job? If so, do you produce anything? Work a 40 hr week? etc... Judging by the careers emails and leaflets I get bombarded by, the people who want physicists most are weapons companies and finance firms.
Monczeli Faolain	Posted - 2007.12.22 12:02:00 - [122] Level Three of a BSc in Computing Science with a specialisation in Artificial Intelligence. I say Level Three and not 3rd Year because... well... Technically it's my fourth year. I went to uni when I was 17, messed about for a year and then dropped out from financial pressures and just not getting terribly good results. I went back when I was about 23, but I had to retake first year. I got pretty good results then and they've only improved since then. When I was at school, we were warned about the dangers of taking a year out before going to uni, because that year could easily extend to forever. In retrospect I think that was the worst advice I've ever been given. So the moral, to anyone who maybe hasn't started uni yet: Don't go just because "it's expected", and don't go because you have nothing better to do. Only go when you know it's what you want, and think you might be ready for it.

Dont know how things compare year for year, but a bachelors degree is normaly 3 years in university after succeeding at college (so from age 18 onwards if you've taken no breaks) and a masters is an extra 2 years ontop of that usualy. If the systems are equivalent then you're at about a masters level in England.
