Unfortunately, judging from my friend’s experience, this is true:




A California State University in Northridge that pumps out extremely low quality engineers to government workforce. The engineering school is known for hiring low quality engineering professors, whom care more about spending their time fighting the CSU for higher salary than focusing on improving their teaching materials. Engineering students are generally guaranteed 3.+ GPA (equivalent to 1.0 from UC system) coming out of that school, if they don’t drop out by their 2nd or 3rd years.

Stacy: Excuse me Professor T., now that I graduated from CSUN with an engineering degree. Can you recommend me some company where I can make decent living?

Prof T: Apply for a government job. Most of our students tend to do well there. I hear that they don’t interview. If you can breath, you’re guarantee a job.

Stacy: Ok. I’ll apply there and will pass this on to my other CSUN friends.



Not the brightest of our bunch back at CC but is pulling a 3.7 in ME and says he gets pretty much 100s on his hardest tests at CSUN…so…

Now I’m sure they have an OK program…but there is a lot of grade inflation I think. I was seriously (although it’d be rude) going to ask him where he found the time to build a huge lego thing he posted on Facebook (I’m talking massive) when he’s taking like 5+ engineering classes and has all this free time to be in a Starcraft club cuz all he does pretty much is play video games. I had to drag the kid out of his room and pull him through Linear Algebra before transferring, LOL.
