I agree with you, why do you think that is?


judging from this site with their opinions


they have the best major
they have the hardest major
they have the highest paying major right out of school
their major is the only one worth a shite



i dont know why they think this but they constantly hammer these 4 things to death. if all 4 of these things were true, why do you have to constantly talk about it and jerk all the other engineering majors off? i dont see pre-med people constantly beating their chests about their major or any other major doing it

I'll give it a shot. I don't know anything about aerospace or biological engineering.

1. chemical, mechanical, electrical

2. civil, petroleum

3. industrial

I pretty much agree with this, although I'd have mech and chem in the top tier with EE slightly below.

ETA: And I base this off my circle of friends which includes MEs, an EE, a CHE, and a PetE

I really don't understand Industrial or why someone would major in it.

Can you really even get bioengineering jobs without a masters? I am basing my opinions off of LSU's program.
