I'm an architectural engineering major, standard time for the degree is 5 years, with 4 years of "internship" after I graduate and grad school while not required, is almost a given. First day of engineering class, we went through all the different degrees in the science field, architectural engineering is said to be the second hardest of them all, biochemical being the first. If that information, and schedule alone isn't enough to kill my motivation than I don't know what is, but I'm still determined to go forward with it. Oh, and I'm also required to complete 30 credits in math courses alone....most degrees require 3-9 math credits to graduate.
I kinda wish i went the engineering route...I'm a numbers/science person, not just numbers. I have a lot of friends at Drexel doing every imaginable branch of engineering and they're always doing stuff that interests me a lot more.
