<p>Not true. In order for you to get a ms in eng, you need would either need a bs or be in eng, or the take certain required undergradute classes. Unless your program is differnet.</p>
<p>I knew someone who graduated with a bs in polictical science (could not find a job) and went to ms in eng. Acceptance to the ms program was condition on complete certain undergraduate courses. Instead of finishing in 2 years, she took 3 years. she went to work for a consulting firm.</p>
<p>Remember, first year or two are core courses. 3rd or 4th most people take maybe 3 eng related classes per semester. As the most, you may miss a few courses, but no one is able to take all eng electives offered.</p>
<p>In my office, we all mech eng and yet very diifferent concretration in college: some take general (a bit of everything), some in energy, some in packaging and solid mechanics. For most eng’s you are trained on the job. So don’t worry about it.</p>
