Why students feel that way
Patterns tell us what is happening. Student accounts explain why.
Distinctive themes
No distinctive review themes have cleared the evidence threshold yet.
Representative perspectives
There is a lot of work and effort needed to get through Tech ME classes. However, if you work to build your understanding and not just check boxes, then you will be very prepared and confident in your engineering ability.
Difficulty & workload
It’s like applied physics but everything you do is directly related to the real world. It feels meaningful to work in and it feel like it answers your common question for elementary school of “when will I ever use this in my life”
Courses & teaching
More job outlook and opportunities for mechanical engineering, I wasn't completely sure about biomedical engineering
