well the name of my program is called mechatronics, which is basically a cross between mechanical, electrical, and systems design, but yah thanks for the tip. By the way, UT's car im assuming u mean the university of texas right? have u heard of waterloo? i no our car did pretty good other then the fact that a rad hose blow and they kicked us out, which made us lose like 1/3 of our points....the cool part was that we have the second fastest accelerationcar because of our pneumatic shifter.

Get involved with your engineering discipline's main student organization too- ASME for ME, IEEE for EE, AiCHE for Chem E etc... it really helps, especially in your first few years.

My bad, I get that attitude from the EE guys here all the time only they are serious. The funny part is not a one of the EE guys that are taking the Software emphasis(sp?) can program their way out of a box. If you are feeling laid back now just wait a semester or two. Things will pick up. I only taking 2 CS classes, a math class and 2 gen ed classes and I have been swamped most of this semester.

Come to UT... we have the regular EE program, and then on top of that the more rigorous ECE (Electrical & Computer Engineering) where everyone who makes it out can actually program their way out of an n-dimensional fractal universe.
