<p>Assuming you consider IE to be true engineering, you still have to admit it is a different sort of engineering than what is traditionally meant by engineering.</p>
<p>The point is, an entertainment engineer may have taken statics but that doesn’t mean I want them designing my house or car.</p>
<p>from what ive heard entertainment engineering is a lot like civil except there is a lot of emphasis on on small environments and electricity… also there is a lot more physics than normal CE, but not as intense as ME</p>
<p>The paper industry used to be huge in Maine, so a lot of engineers worked in paper mills. I worked on a couple of paper mill projects in the late '80s and early '90s. What stinky, hot places! Some of them were very old, and over the years additions were made in a hodge-podge manner. Just determining the existing conditions was tough, then we’d have to figure out how to add on equipment and buildings so that everything met code. I’m glad I don’t do that anymore. I wonder what happened to the process engineers who never worked on any other kinds of project.</p>
