    Ashereng, I suppose it does sound like a "general" course because it attempts to cover a breadth of knowlege from many disciplines. Perhaps that stigma is why the program has not caught on very well in other universities or companies. In defence of my program, please understand that it is not...

    Systems Design Engineering

    I graduated from the Department of Systems Design Engineering. It was a program developed in 1969 (undergrad level) to meet a projected need in the engineering world. It doesn't seem that this field has happend or is likely to happen in the next 5 years or ever. If anything it's a very senior...

    Advice for new grad wanting to eventually be self employed

    Hi, I have co-op experience doing computer software, hardware and project engineering. I planned my co-op that way so I could figure out what field of engineering I prefer. I think I would like to eventually form my own company and design solutions for customers. What type of solutions will...
