What do engineering students learn?
Engineering majors learn biotechnology, imaging, structural mechanics, environmental engineering, computer engineering, information science and nanotechnology. An engineering major is an interdisciplinary study of math, science and some business principles.

Why study with other engineering students?
As engineering students share with one another their knowledge, insights and understanding on engineering theories, formulas, equations they reinforce their own understanding. Most instructors will attest, to teach a subject is the most effective way to learn it. Study groups foster a collaborative learning environment.
What are some tips to study engineering effectively?
Tip #1: Take good notes, and keep them all after your classes are over. Engineering textbooks can be dense, but endure through the tedium. Do your reading – all of it – and keep a highlighter and page markers handy. After the class is over, keep your most useful and well-written textbooks as reference.
What classes should I take in college to become an engineer?
Take classes in all sorts of engineering, even if they are not your concentration. Understanding not only the subject matter, but also how other types of engineers approach and solve problems, will lend insight into your own field, from biomedical to mechatronics and robotics to chemical to environmental engineering and beyond.
What are the science and engineering standards?
Instead of a concrete curriculum or a test that students must be able to pass, the science and engineering standards lay out benchmarks for what concepts students should know at particular grade levels, each year building on those before it.
