Talk:Engineering physics

MIT

strange - when i created this article i could have sworn that i found EP listed in the MIT Course Catalog section of Degree Programs, but now i cannot. i've removed MIT from the list, in addition to my (admittedly POV) claim of many EP's going into aerospace.

i have confirmed the presence EP degrees at UVa, UM and ERAU, but not ITU. mnemonic 12:47, 2004 Jul 17 (UTC)

EP

Would you say engineering physics is usually harder than other traditional engineering branches such as mech and eece? I believe so because there are usually more credits and courses and your mind has to wrap around more concepts which may or may not be related.

response: In Sweden, EP is definately considered to be a more demanding education, offering a more comprehensive and mathematical education that spans and largely encompasses electrical/nuclear/computer/mechanical engineering. --jugander

Where I'm at (UBC), eng phys is generally considered tough because of the advanced math and physics courses required, however, there are programs like mechatronics (dual mech/ece) which are still considered harder. -Lommer | ^talk 01:09, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Newer claim

The article claims that Eng phys is a fairly new degree. Is this true? I was under the impression that eng phys degrees had been around since the 50s. -Lommer | ^talk 01:09, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

List of schools

Ok this has been bugging me for a bit. Does anyone else think it's odd that we're listing every single school that offers eng phys? Not only is this list horrendously incomplete, I don't think it's neccesary. I could see it if there were only two or three schools worldwide that offered eng phys, but as it stands right now its as if we listed every school that offers aerspace engineering or even mechanincal engineering. Does anyone else think we should remove the list? -Lommer | ^talk 21:23, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
