My major is Civil Engineering
By hours I am a sophmore with 43 hours but it is my 3rd year of collage. (I was part time for the first 2 years) but I still have 4 years to go on how the course build on eachother.

Currently I am currently taking 14 hours at Texas Tech

Chem 1308 and its lab
Engineering Graphic
Cal I
Engineering Anlazies 1305
Civil engineering Seminar

Next sesester I am still trying to firgure out what I plan on talking. I need to talk to my adviser to figure it out because I am a transfer student I end up with more holes in my class segraul because I have a lot of the basic done that where spreed out over all 4 years. And for the same reason I am having trouble keeping my segral full time until I get though statics which is the bottle neck course.

Jedi what collage are you attending I dont know of many schools out side of the miltray that teach nueclear engineering

I'm at NC State University. We have a reactor on campus too. We also have a PWR simulator for operations training, disaster scenarios, etc.

I've already got enough math credit to fulfull the requirement for a minor. I'm thinking about getting it as a second major.

I've taken:
Cal I, II, III
Ordinary Differential Equations
Partial Differential Equations (this was a graduate course, not the typical PDE course for seniors)
Fourier Analysis
Complex Analysis
Number Theory
Linear Algebra/Matrices

Math makes my simple mind hurt.






But then again, I do have an analytical mind--just not for numbers.

Tough and very interesting stuff as far as I know. Pretty cool :) Had you ever considered chemical engineering before u settled on nuclear?

That explains your wit and thought processes. I bet a large chunk is natural as well, but you can definitely think well and quickly. On a side note, did you ever happen to debate in high school or college?
