I didn't even know that I could put my Bachelor of Engineering degree next to my name, and from what I can tell on the Internet, putting it next to my name would be considered pretentious.
- ghaff 3y ago>putting it next to my name would be considered pretentious. Yeah, probably. I sometimes will list degrees in a longer bio but that's mostly because it may turn out I went to school with someone. They're not very relevant to anything I'd be talking about at a conference. I'd never put degrees and class years next to my name unless it were an alumni thing. As I say, PhDs in a non-academia setting are what you see something of a split on with some people displaying them liberally and others never mentioning them.
- toast0 3y agoI've got a Bachelor of Science, so I'd be toast0, BS. Which seems appropriate, because putting a title like that feels like BS. It's in Computer Engineering, so I could be toast0, BSCE. But that feels pretentious.

- bee_rider 3y agoOh, MSEE would, I guess, finally solve the awkward question of “what do you use as a title if you have a masters degree,” haha.
