I need some help choosing a major:

Are engineers superior to physics and chemistry majors?

>> No.4762616

define 'superior'

but more useful and more employable, yeh

>> No.4762619

depends on the type of engineer, but as a rule nobody likes chemists.

>but more useful and more employable, yeh

nope. this is only a given for lower tiers of achievement. physics graduates will happily walk into the same high paying numerical jobs (banking, quant etc.) that [some] engineers, the computer scientists and the mathematicians will.

>>4762613
If by "superior" you mean dumb and gay, then yes.

Engineers are dumb and gay.

Yes, in many aspects besides de average pay. Engineers have a strong base of physics and mathematics and the knowledge to put it in practice as a fruid of endless hours of obligatory lab practices.

Engineers are the brain and the workforce. They buy mathematicians and physicists to make the dirty work like programming numerical solvers or state if a solution exists.

Engineers are like McDonalds workers. They do the shitty jobs in bulk, and know how to follow orders well.

They make your shitty Big Mac, but that doesn't make them a chef.

They know how to operate a cash register, but that doesn't mean they know any real math.

Physicists scribble down hundreds of pages of intracacies and delicacies of the physical world - the universe.
After The Physicists work is complete, he makes a brief "Summary" section at the back.
He hands his tome over to the engineer, and directs him to the aforementioned posterior section.
The engineer claps in enjoyment, sometimes managing to actually bring both his hands into full contact, though most of the time he misses his own hands.
A little bit of dribble runs off the engineers hanging tongue onto The Physicists masterpiece, but The Physicist doesn't mind - his work is still safe, locked in his gargantuan brain permanently - etched their as he tirelessly worked over the months.

The engineer runs away to study the Summary section. So excited is he to see what he can make of his masters work that he trips over, landing in a slump on the floor. The Physicist helps him up, and carries him to his desk.

Engineering is a "trade" like plumbers or janitors. It is 95% grunt work, but someone has to do it.

Most people have more important/useful things to do, and don't wanna go through the hastle of taking out the trash, engineering, or unclogging a toilet.

Hence, we have jobs and people dedicated to that trivial shit, so the rest of us can actually use our talents for actual important shit!
