- defrost 3y agoAs part of my undergraduate engineering course work we had more seperate threads and more exams than almost every other degree on campus including law and medicine. Part of that was civil, part electrical, part electronic, part mechanical, part drawing, part on site saftey, part drawing, etc. Another key part, critical to passing, was ethics, civil responsibility and a roll call of great engineering screw ups that killed people as case studies of how badly things can go wrong. If Software Engineering were to become an equivilant then a study of when software goes fatal would be mandatory.
