Hi everyone! During one of my takeovers on WhyRyerson’s Instagram, I asked you all to tell me some common things you have heard about Ryerson Engineering or engineering in general. I created a video discussing which of these hearsays are actually true and which of them are nothing more than myths.
Here are some timestamps to the topics discussed in this video:
0:19 “I need to know which type of engineering I want to do as soon as I enter university.”
0:41 “Ryerson Engineering has a lot of strange traditions.”
1:16 “There’s a lot of math in engineering.”
1:33 “First-year engineering students can’t get co-ops or internships.”
1:59 “Women in engineering don’t get jobs.”
2:16 “It doesn’t matter where I get my engineering degree.”
2:38 “Engineering students don’t have social skills.”
3:19 “Engineers know how to fix everything.”
I hope this helped clear up some of your questions about engineering!
