I had Civil Engineering I and II in my ME program. It followed
Statics
and
Design.


Do you really think that would qualify you to do bridge design?

No, not now. I graduated in 1993, and took the EIT exam...but never
worked
as an engineer. If I had pursued engineering, my degree *would* have
qualified me (eventually) to do "bridge design". But you are right...if
I
really wanted to design bridges, I'd have studied Civil Engineering.

Mechanical Engineers build bombs and weapons. Civil Engineers build
targets.

The ME's I work with design HVAC systems........

The best doctors (and dentists :-) ) I've meet have all been engineers
or math majors in undergrad......something about their problem solving
skills :-)
