I know we have touched on this a bit in the past, but I was hoping that anyone who is taking engineering could list: What school they are at and the type of engineering that they are studying. And maybe add how they are finding it.

You taking any EE classes there? I've got a buddy named DJ there doing ME and EE I believe.

I'm in physics, it's basically the same sort of ass-raping you get in engineering, it's just less understandable.

Mechanical at Northeastern University. I've got a two finals left and I'm done with my freshman year. So far things have gone well and I'm very satisfied with the major and the school.

Graz University of Technology
Mechanical Engineering
the first 4 semesters are a little bit hard and boring because I have to learn all the basic principles.
So i hope the next semester will be more interesting.
