Life as an engineering student?

Well, everyone is different…but as one who graduated with a engineering degree, I can say my social life was significantly less than that of business majors, communications majors, and other liberal arts majors.

That’s not to say that I didn’t time for fun - I did on Friday evening and all day Saturday. But my freshman and sophmore year I didn’t do very much besides studying and going to class. It got easier as time went on.

I’m now a full time real engineer and am enrolled in a part time masters degree program that I do in the evening. Now I really don’t have a social life (but will have a masters degree paid by the company within a year).
