Chemical engineering?
I mean, at the end of the day, university is just about getting a piece of paper that says you're qualified to do a job. Every single person in industry I've spoken to has said that they don't really use what is taught in university because its not how things are done in the workforce, and that you'll get re-trained for a particular role.
I'll be honest, I've been very disheartened about engineering from my experience at uni. I'm a hands-on person (explains why I love building amps and things so much
), and I just don't learn from lecturers or reading textbooks.
