The reason the first 2 years of college requires at least 1 year of arts education is because arts are an important part of understanding the world. Anyone claiming to be an engineer that hates arts probably didn't even go to college or didn't learn what college was designed to teach.

An engineer complained about market not buying his godlike products. He payed me for a consulting and the obvious reason was that he was making zero marketing. I told him what to do in order to build awareness in potential customers and he replied he didn't want to put such an effort because his products are godlike and if people is unaware of that it's their fault. He finally stated he wants to market products without doing marketing at all and blamed me because he sold none. Well I understood that it's assholes choosing to become engineers in order to build their own mental world and not the other way around. When you hire an engineer check his mental health first.

Engineering graduate learns a LOT of theory . In industry it is CRUCIALY important to understand that a design problem can NOT be solved by simply plugging numbers into the ready-made equations theoretical equations. Real problems of design involve others factors beside the parameters of ideal equations. For example EE designing an op-amp with low level inputs signals has to sometimes tend to oscillation problems, interfering pick-up signals, cost of parts problems, packaging problems, ...many more that become obscure electrical contact resistance etc. That is why a new graduate MUST copy the an old-hand behaviors and REJECT some of them.

Nope they are condescending, know it all jerks with a god complex that can never be wrong. I lectured to theses people dealing with them at different universities across the country. The motto is "you are doing it wrong. Do it like me, for I do everything better". Get a few people with that same mentality together and you have a party!

Geologists hate dealing with them.

Geology rocks! But geography is where it's at.

[@scifijunky1979]

Guilty as charged!✋

[@kellyjordan6440]

Yes they are! Plus they are utterly boring with zero creativity.

Imagine a world without the arts. That would suck.
