ENGINEERING SCIENCE What is it about this course that makes anyone who stays in it after first year wonder “What the Hell am I doing here anyway?” Engineering Science as it is called originated at U of T as Engineering Physics in the 1934-35 academic year. The original purpose of the course was “To offer a training in Mathematics and Physics beyond that which it is possible to give in other undergraduate engineering courses.” The idea was “to bring the student a readier appreciation of the nature of technical problems with which he will be confronted, and a greater facility in the solution of them.” But what does this all mean to the poor saps who are taking the course? Since it is named Engineering Science, of course they have to have all the problem solving and number crunching capabilities of engineers; and in addition they need the intuition and intellect of research scientists. The result is an Engineering Scientist works as hard as a scientist and engineer combined, plus more. In order to illustrate some of the problems that they are routinely required to solve, a list of several typical exam questions has been included. 1( “Physics does not deal with reality” comment at length. 2( What is the Universe? Give three examples. 3( Outside the door are 300 thirsty blood drinking cannibals. Calm them. You may use any language except Latin, Greek, any Zambesi dialect and PL C (Hint use PLUTO). 4) You are provided with the parts of a rifle and a bullet. In 5 minutes a man-eating tiger will be let into the room. Take whatever action you deem necessary. 5) This is a bonus question. Given a razor blade and a piece of gauze perform an autoappendectomy. NOTE: DO NOT suture until your work has been inspected. By now you may be wondering what sort of creature emerges from fourth year, and goes into graduate school (as 2 3 of NX grads do). These people have some common characteristics. They are allergic to ivy, in all forms. They have a profound interest in aircraft and aerodynamics and the computer. In fact, these three loves are combined in their extensive research into the applications of IBM computer cards, to aircraft construction. The resulting aircraft, powered by rubber bands have been known to execute graceful flight across professors’ noses. Engineering Scientists are fond of their teachers, and often give them gifts of fruit, such as banana skins, orange peels and apple cores. Little mustachioed men with glasses make them very nervous .... especial- ly the sporadic mustache-licking types. Just as the word “Ben” used to in the past, now the word “Boris” brings a glow to their dim and weary eyes and a grin to careworn faces. Lastly contrary to popular belief the words “Dead Bears” and “Blows” do not mean any- thing to them as the words do to the rest of Engineering. Engineering Scientists are continually shooting for better things.
