RE: Q. Why is it still ok to graduate engineers after just 4 years of college? And then in 4 years let them take the P.E. license exam?

We watched it in my AP Calculus class in high school since it was about AP Calculus students, but if I recall correctly I'd rented it previously with my parents from the video store. It came out a few years before I was born, but it was one of my favorites when I saw it. I think the movie (based ...

Bill, I read the referenced article, and here is my take: -I agree with most of what was stated in the paper -I disagree with the leap they made in assuming that requiring a Masters will necessarily accomplish the goals better than other education (like training under a qualified PE) This was ...

Eric, I think you made an excellent point. Instead of more formalized education, many engineers could use better mentoring and on-the-job training. What are we, those already in the field, doing to help those coming along behind or beside us? Are we sharing lessons learned? Are we talking through ...

I've said this before in previous discussions, but I think we need to be careful comparing ourselves to doctors. To design a culvert or roadway is not comparable to knowing the ins and outs of the human body, pathology, etc. Yes, there is a life-safety component to what we do, but it is not the same ...

RE: Why Not Transfer Knowledge of Forensic Engineer's Results To Engineering Educators

My engineering education did include discussions of failures in several courses. I'm not saying there couldn't be improvement or added value from additional communication between the investigating engineers and the educators, but I think we need to give credit where credit is due by acknowledging that ...

Here are a few of my concerns with AI in the professional setting: It is often clear it was used because it sounds unnatural. I've seen multiple posts that say things like "I bet you couldn't tell this was written with AI!" but it was pretty apparent before I got there that it wasn't written ...

I think transportation is one that catches a lot of heat from the general public. One brief story comes to mind of a conversation among a group of friends all practicing engineering: mechanical engineer: "So what are you working on?" transportation engineer: "I'd rather not say so you don't ...

They look great! I'm always a little jealous when someone makes something beautiful that I don't have the patience for hahaha I'm more of a get-it-done-in-one-sitting creator. Now that I think about it, that may be why I was frustrated by projects when I first transitioned from hearing "hey, intern, ...

I recently took over the planning and coordination of our monthly in-house lunch and learns for our civil group. We do a lot of site development and subdivision work, and we are expanding our H&H work. Our lunch and learns are sometimes presented by someone in-house, and sometimes we bring in outside ...

I find it difficult sometimes to explain my job to adults, and kids are a whole other level of complexity. What we do is difficult to boil down and not make it sound more boring that we think it is. This posts reminds me of a conversation I had after college graduation with my preschool class ...

Earlier this month, our office had our annual Open House. This year, I made an advent calendar of "desk buddies" to count up the work days in November until Open House. The first eleven were themed for the different groups within our company, and the last was party-themed. One of the ladies in our ...
