Tbh there's a fair mix of people, I'm relatively normie, only slightly aspie, and a few other regular people. Then there are also autists of varying degrees of functionality. Like, there's some that run around constantly and always brownnose professors and are generally socially incompetent, and there are also some that are borderline dysfunctional. Like, I know a junior that is essentially not a human, I have no idea how he was allowed to progress that far. Can barely string sentences together, extremely cringy to listen to him talk, and dumb as all hell.

I don't know what to conclude from this. Mathematics students are normies and asocial retards like me are just the exceptions to the rule?

Also

A couple of dudebros
Then there's some who are just in it for the money bringing everyone around them down.
There's this one tech wizard that is incredible with electronics diy and all around everything else related to EE, spends most of his time in his apartment on projects as far as I could tell, barely see him out of lectures.
2 grills, one of them who is doing EE as a hobby degree with her husbands money, the other is pretty good, both very social obviously.
And then there's that one weird guy with a villain mustache always going on about outer body experiences. I swear to god that guy must be on some kind of meds.

The memes are true desu.

I'm computer engineering, and I have yet to meet anyone the same year as me, since it's just a combination of CS and EE.
I have a comp e senpai, he's pretty normal/cool.
The EE majors are pretty middle of the road people, they just seem like your average young person who's doing engineering because the world said it was a good idea.
The CS majors are normie af, and there's a huge age spread. The local economy is booming because of the tech industry, so most people in that major see it as there way to provide for themselves/family. Additionally the CS major at my school is extremely competitive so most people have their shit together. There's a couple of stinky/turbo autists, but nothing like how /sci/ makes it out to be.

>>8552221

There are a few rare people who are cool and not socially retarded, but they are few and far between.

Rather than the pedestrian autismo constantly saying they have the "revolutionary design" for a new multistage neutron bomb without fission initial stage.

TLDR; this major is full of triggering

>>The best students are quite social and generally normal, albeit not without small weirdness

I'm the guy you are talking to and I am the one with the highest grades in every single class we take. It is actually not even close. The classes average is C while my grade in every class was A.

So it is more like the worst students are social and normal.

The best are asocial.

Same. Though it's normal people and fun autists (in the good sense of the word) around. Fun bunch. All the "I wanna make vidya gaems" crowd got kicked out after second semester, when physics, linear algebra, discrete maths and diff eqs started.

>>8552540
I guess real life is different from /sci/ memes.

>>8552540
This.

My best explanation is that when you are a complete autist then someone with maybe just minor social problems who has a girlfriend looks like a fratboy chad dudebro.

It is all a matter of perspective.

I bet if you make this thread on /fit/ and ask them for a description of the people in their majors you would get the CS people talking about everyone in their major is an absolute sperg faggot and so would the engineerin people there.

>physics grad school
>everyone is either a huge autist or a complete alcoholic

>>8552173
Shit, I'm studying to become a math teacher. Should I just end it now?

I'm in a one year course that a relatively prestigious university in my country offers to people who show potential to do a degree but don't have formal qualifications to be acceoted.

>chemistry and biology
Chemistry is filled with stoners and drugs. They party very rarely and there is a mix of anti-social and social people. One guy has only ever been seen drunk at the bars or hungover in the computational chemistry lab studying. He fries his balls off on acid every week and he aces every class, looks like the kinda guy that'd have his application to work as a janitor rejected cause he looks to unprofessional. Most don't like math but are fairly good at it and can do dimensional analysis in their sleep by the time they finish quantitative analysis. Some of them are cool and some are assholes like this one guy who keeps pouring out his chemical waste down the sink saying it's not his problem.

Biology is a huge department at my school. A handful of autistic spergburgers and a shit ton of normies. They have shit like ethidium bromide just laying around, there's even a door handle in the department literally stained blue by peoples hands. Many of the ones that focused early and are trying to do research are cool cause they have a goal and it's fun to talk about with them. The pre-meds are fucking insufferable for the most part, acting like hot shit when they can't even do dilutions without a freaking chart and a calculator.

>>8552540

EE

I only socialize with CivE's.

Chemistry

My incoming class had ~75 students and by senior year we had about 25. My experience is that most people who stuck with chem were fairly normie with a few quirks. They would be okay working/talking with other people, but they have some aspie tendencies that prevented them from becoming a true normie.

Granted, there are a few fratbros and sloots, but most people are tolerable. Classes are about 60/40 male to female. The women are mostly looking at pharma or looking to go into some kind of sales position after college. The men are a lot more focused on going to graduate school, with a much smaller portion looking for work outside of the field.

>>8553094
Because you're gonna get a master's and then a phd and then teach, thus perpetuating the cycle of who fucking cares

My roommate's an environmental science major and wants to hear if anyone's got any opinions on that

My opinion is that it's not science and it's for hippies.

CS at small state school.

Pajeets, typical anime nerds, older people going back to school for the money who always complain about failing Calculus.

CS.

90% total chads. Like, retarded-level, "How the fuck do I functional" blub-language assholes that are literally just here for a piece of paper so they can go make 100k a year writing python scripts to automate shit for their bosses. Literally know three chads that have pulled this off that graduated before I do.

>Muh Java
>Muh C
>Lol that was hard right guize? But now I python

Btw this is a "really good school".

Then there's also a decent amount of hipster faggots, and they all act like they're cool because they get Bs in everything and are really into javascript. Which is like, okay, I get it, literally everyone uses it, but how does that make you hip?

Then there's a couple total autists, myself included, who cry themselves to sleep every night while jacking off to videos about homotopic type theory. We don't hang out, we all hate each other because of REALLY trivial differences in stuff like freebsd vs openbsd vs netbsd and shit like the best way to implement reversible logic or whatever.

They're like 19-20. They're sophomores.
I know a little bit about everything. Not a lot, just enough to be able to figure out in two minutes what they're interested in, what I know about it, how to relate it to something they don't know about, and make it sound like I just totally find them interesting the whole time. Pretty much just make these chicks feel smart and special.

And it isn't like "hey wanna date", it's just playing off the fact that all these yup bitches want attention and giving it to them in a way that doesn't take a lot of thought or effort. Also I mainly go at girls that aren't very obviously crying for attention like most normie hot chicks, but like fine girls that have something weird going on, like their dad left when they were three and maybe touched them or something but they're still smart enough to be fine and not look like total garbage. But who probably look like melvins to chads and who still make the autists awkward. But I'm an autist, too. Idk. They're like fucking 20. It ain't that hard to look smart and interesting to a 20 year old when you're pushing 30 as long as you have your shit together and don't look terrible. I mainly fuck sociology and anthro majors that haven't signed on to the sjw thing... same kinda girls that used to play hella kingdom hearts but didn't really watch animu, like 10 years ago.

I go to Georgia Tech.

The most annoying thing to happen in recent-ish times is when the Wal-Mart at Tech Square moved out. Now I have to go to Publix to get my groceries like I'm some sort of caveman.

I'm a math major but all my friends are depressed, self loathing Physics majors (some with a double in math). I was Physics when I got here so that's why I know them a lot better.

Even the phys friends I make that don't know my friends are sim; it's weird but I love it.

Can't say much about math students yet, but fuck the wannabe teachers. fucking hell they are annoying and make me fear for the children they'll potentially be responsible for

>>8552948

I agree that "good" genes seem to come in bunches, but

1. Inherent social awkwardness and inherent intelligence seem to go hand, the farther you are from the center of the bell curve, the harder communication with other humans is

2. Given that there are only 24 hours in a day and skill is proportional to time spent practicing, we have to choose what we end up getting good at. If you spend all day socializing, you will have great social skills, but you won't be a research scientist. If you spend all day studying physics, the inverse is obviously true.

I have intelligence, good looks, height, wealth, physical fitness and social awkwardness because I spent so much time studying instead of communicating with humans. The cool thing about being fit and good looking is that I can still get laid. If I was only average looking, given my charm/communication skills, I would be SOL.

90% are geeky in some manner. Large amounts of shy people who only talk to 1 or 2 people. I wouldn't call the general atmosphere anti-intellectual, everyone seems to enjoy some aspect of computer science, but the intellectual juggernauts are few and far between, and they tend to be obnoxiously autistic

Asking the wrong person. In Germany, you can do a pharmacy degree straight out of high school, and I'm only in my fourth out of eight semesters, so you've probably got more experience than me. It all depends on what you want to do. The focus is on chemistry, specifically analytical chemistry. Since most pharma graduates (80%) actually end up working in a pharmacy, the program is tailored to that audience, so if you like checking prescriptions and counting pills, you'll be right at home. But my physical chemistry professor is always complaining that the industry is snatching away graduates before finishing their Ph.D., so you've got options. If you like QA and shit. For research, you can specialize in pharmaceutical technology, chemistry, pharmacology and biology, so you'll end up as a "jack of all sciences", so to say.

I'd say the program consists of 50% chemistry, 40% bio and medicine and 10% math and physics. But if you're going to treat the program as a bargain deal medicine degree, you're going to regret it.

>>8556638
Here in Spain university is not exactly free, but it can be pretty cheap, especially if you get goverment subsidies for being poor or living far away or for having a mean mark of 8 or higher. Also, if you get a 9.5 or higher in a subject with X credits, then next year you won't have to pay for those X credits.

If you manage it well, you can end up almost getting paid to go to uni, which is pretty comfy.

>What is geology like?
Geology is fucking amazing.
As to whether or not there's any jobs in it, the trick is to go into the areas that require math. Geophysicists are never unemployed.
There's lots of "Cs get Degrees" types in geology, so if you have any drive you're probably going to graduate in the top 10% and have little to no real competition.

Seems like the most normie bunch in engineering though.I've been in modules with EE, mech, CS and civil. EE are probably the smartest but theres a lot of weirdos in that group. Mech seem to be normal dudes with slightly above average intelligence, same with civil. Computer scientists are one of 2 things, lazy idiots who wont make it through their degree or autistic savants. There is no middle ground.

Come to think of it I dont know anyone in our class who actually has a passion for biomedical engineering. I think a lot of people picked it cause they thought it would be easy, I picked it for the money.

And then there's me, who has an existential crisis every time she thinks about anything. Chronically late. Gets the tutor into philosophical discussions as often as possible. Hey, we still cover the work.

I live with English students, and they seem far more interested in their subject than the physics bods. They'll have a philosophical conversation at the drop of a hat, but often they get into politics or analyse people instead.

> Loudly and aggressively sociable (this one especially irks me as it makes my autism all the more obvious)
> Ridiculously abusive of alcohol, love nothing more than to talk about how much they had to drink at some-society-event. Drugs are kind of taboo though, strangely (probably because evidence of drug user is enough to bar you from medical register)
> Upper-middle class hippies everywhere
> Overflowing with pakis and Indians
> Many of the aforementioned brown folk obviously have no real desire to pursue medicine, and have clearly been coerced into it by parents
> I am one of those pakis

My biggest regret is not leaving this course 2 years ago when I was considering a change. My second biggest regret is getting into it in the first place. I'm too old, too far in and too indebted now to start another course. I guess medicine is my life now.

Literally retarded. This is why you don't take career advice from students.

Geology is saturated. With oil AND mining down, even the env market is flooded with experienced, unemployed geologists. Did you graduate in the top 10% of your class. Congrats, you're not eligible to wait in the back of the employment line.

Have a geophysics BS? Oh, no one told you you needed a masters to work in that field? You are need an MS to work in the field and you're not even eligible for regular geology jobs because you lack the proper background. Oh you do have an MS? Oh, I guess no one told you your entire skillset is only relevant to oil & gas, welcome to unemployment.

Law school

Mostly passionate people who have some cause they want to help. It's a mix of fairly smart people and people who aren't very smart but compensate by studying a lot - some even going as far as to do 14 hours a day, 6 times a week. So most of them work hard, but there are also those who are pretty lazy and only chose law school for the money.

You're probably frome the same uni. I did one year of EE and there were 3 women in the whole class, only one of which was identifable as such.

EE had the least social people.

Switched to physics. These are cooler I think, they're there for the physics. Mostly seem to be still living with their parents though. There is some immaturity. There's some great people there.

Also did biology. They were not as hippy as I had hoped to be. Mostly /Ifuckinglovescience/ fanboiss, doing 'actual' science. Couldn't really relate.

Took some finance/engaged in that stuff. Really different from all above. Normie tier, but all living way above their class, which is beautiful in some sense.

Overall, there were cool people in each major. Just need to search a little more in some.

>>8559341

>CS at a US top 100 university

Most of the people in the major already had a job in the industry before starting the program. It makes getting an A difficult but as long as you show up you pass. Most of the people in the program are smart and motivated. They filter out most students by the upper level students. Because our school is so large with so many students (60k+) the filter classes are often merciless. Most students talk about these classes and their schoolwork. Most students are social but they don't have the time because our coursework is time consuming. They're often great people but I've seen many of them fail or drop out. It's really sad and lonely. I just graduated and there were people I recognized at the ceremony which was nice. I'm very extroverted and love to go out but I was often restricted because of workload like most of the people in CS. There are legitimate geniuses in our program. Everyone is nice and understanding in our major but sometimes we feel neglected. We're in the same college as engineers but we are largely seen as outsiders.

I literally thought "This guy is from Tech" while reading this. I go to UGA. Sounds pretty similar to what I experience in Athens, but I was a chem major so it's probably different from all the Chads that go here.

It's so bad that I'm considering switching major to physics and studying works of Vienna Circle and such as a hobby. This really is not what I was expecting from a field claiming to be the foundation of all sciences.

Guess I'll respond to what it's like here.

If you are talking about Waterwu, this is a fucking understatement. I left res within my first week because I was the only person on my entire floor not speaking Mandarin, and transferred out after the first semester where all five profs spoke with very heavy accents, and one TA taught my CS lab entirely in Mandarin.

BA geography on a pre med track

Just decided to do pre-med. Not worried about med school or mcat pre-reqs, but what about other shit? Volunteering, leadership, etc etc for med school? Planning on becoming president of my school's geography club but have no idea how to fuckin volunteer. I'm mostly normie. Any medfags want to help out?

>>8552948
This is true. It is just hard for people on here to swallow this pill

Third world university
Physics
Love physics classes so far, math classes are theorem focused soviet programs, you can get As by just memorizing shit.Students can be divided to 2 categories, those who memorise everything and those who don't, theres no middle ground.Will definetly continue studying abroad after graduation.

A friend of mine was a philosophy major. When they were studying the Greeks, his professor brought up Zeno's paradox and then at the end added that calculus offered a solution.

If you love philosophy, physics or math is a solid bet. I just started reading Newton's Principia, and in the foreward he talks about attempts to reconcile philosophy and mechanics which made me all giddy. Basically any philosopher worth anything went into the sciences past the 1700s, the rest are just masturbating about solipsism and taking psychedelics.

>>8565785
I'm not autistically good enough at math to go anywhere with it, and I've got pretty good connections to the maritime law industry here.

Easy Money > Passion & Hard Work

Economics (technically it's a licenciature, not a major, but whatever)

Lots of normies, Chads and Stacies, only a couple are really interested in it as a science (>inb4 STEM are the only real sciences). Also, there's always a bunch of Marxists, but they are harmless.

>all these people saying their maths courses are full of normies
What the actual fuck? Is this just cause you guys are in shit unis or is mine just weird? Studying maths and everyone in my course is weird as FUCK. Antisocial, completely socially inept, totally focused on their studies. I'm part of the 1% who go out and socialize, unfortunately I'm afraid that number will get even smaller since I'm pretty sure most of the non-autists don't have what it takes (in terms of both intelligence and passion for the subject) to see their degree through to the end.

Mathematics with Economics at LSE

50% poo in loo
Everyone is some normie high-achiever from school who goes to 6 meet and greets and 8 internship meetings every week and turns up to class in a suit having just come back from an interview with some financial firm. They're also the most boring and dull people on the planet.

>>8566049

Oh, also, thanks to the socio-economic structure of my country, Economics is very elitist, so we are mostly white and upper middle class.

Mechanical Engineering.

A large portion is people who are borderline retarded but want an engineering degree because they think that will verify that they are smart.

>>8552082
Mechanical Engineering.

I also live in an all engineering dorm. Most everyone is very weird but its ok because they fit in with the other weird engineers.

>>8557620
Kek, this sounds pretty faimmiliar, I also study physics. We started out with 90 people, but we were weeded out to 25. I'll just describe the general vibe:

>The kid who is interested in physics but is not smart enough to make it, and you feel actually sorry for him
>The person who has no idea why he picked physics in the first place, and passes everything by the skin of his teeth. Eventually he realises physics is not for him and he quits
>The autist that will put his jacket on the chair left of him, and his bag on the chair right to him so no one sits next to him
>The general quirky phycisist (makes up around 40-50% of the people). They wear mostly old, not fashionable comfy clothes. They are actually quite sociable but have a couple of quirks
>The braniac, people that are so smart that it actually blows your mind
>People who just show up at tests, and you don't see otherwise
>Normies, well they sometimes finish the degree and then decide physics is not for them
>The beta orbiters, shy somewhat social guys that are kv's

>>mysterious posh boy who is quite sarcastic and weird, gave my bf a hickey once

>The weird guy, (like me), I flirt with guys for the lulz (no homo, I swear), show people weird youtube videos, always in a state of sarcasm

>>8566281
>>The kid who is interested in physics but is not smart enough to make it, and you feel actually sorry for him
This almost never happens. I think it is a very dangerous and cancerous myth that you need to be smart to be a scientist.

Anyone can do it if they study. I believe that the popular media has giiven everyone a wrong idea of what science is, and physics is a good example if we consider that physics divulgation is somewhat popular. "The kid who is interested in physics" is most of the time, someone who enjoyed watching Neil deGrasse Tyson and liked divulgation books, not someone who had a good time with a physics textbook solving problems. I would argue that only the latter is interested in physics.

>People who just show up at tests, and you don't see otherwise
That's me when I was in college. And it is going to be me next year when I go back.

Masters in Mechatronics

>90% dudes
>50% pajeets and chinks
>rest are mostly normies, some aspies but no CS level aspies.
>most people don't for that masters specifically but we get to do some cool stuff and the employment opportunities are great.

Don't really talk to the people in class though since I have other circles on campus i hang with.

>>8566314
there is a difference between thinking physics are interesting and being interested in physics.
I enjoy reading about the cool shit they but as soon as they start rolling out the differential equations i GTFO

Fellow engineering, but seriously? Are you seriously afraid of babby-tier diffeqs?

>>8566345
Can you tell me anything about Mechatronics? Are you in the US?
I would be interested in doing either Mechatronics or EE for my masters. I'm a CompE.

I intend to be rather interdisciplinary (not just robots), but I feel like I wouldn't get enough specific stuff in Mechatronics and I don't want to miss out on some EE stuff.

I'm good autodidact though, I can easily learn from books. On the other hand, I'm in Europe and Mechatronics is very close to MechE here so I would need to teach myself lot of MechE stuff.

>>8566358
numerical methods is going to blow your mind my man.

>>8566499
>>8566512

Im a grad student but i just find math boring. Just a tool about as interesting as a spoon to me. There's a lot of neat shit in there but its not for me for the people that care but I don't

Since I'm doing my masters in control engineering i have to do my fair share of equation juggling but its with the knowledge that I will never do it again.

>>8566507
Euroland.
The main focus of the program is really control systems, like 50% of the courses are elective though so there's a lot of room for specialization.

We have people with EE, mechE, engPhysics and a few compE background but of of us came from our mechatronics bachelor which here is closer to compE and EE than mechE desu.

It can be very interdisciplinary depending on course choices. I can pick from mechE courses and pure compSci courses.

>>8566416
Wish I'd gone to Rice, honestly. I attend U of H because it actually has a law school and Rice told me to pay full price or fuck off.

>Mostly frat bros who have daddies in the oil industry. Geology is very easy, so the dumbest of the frat bros are in there. The people who don't shower and survive solely on granola are in the Environmental Sciences. People who started in Geophysics all transferred to the Physics dept.
I'm in Texas and yeah even major oil companies have fired a large percentage of their geologists. Even people who had the hookup through a family member to become employed after graduation are fucked. My plan is to stay in academia, during this downturn. After getting a fully funded PhD I'll go into industry, or become a consultant of some sort, or transition into planetary science. The geologists in academia are whacked outta their minds and it's really hard to convince NSF to give you grants to study a mountain range that isn't profitable.

Mathematics, bachelor.

7 normies, one guy who struggles with socializing (but probably not autistic, since he's funny) one child savant aspie who does nothing but brag about how good he is (he almost dropped out of real analysis, kek), and me (who you can classify as an autist because I post on 4chan).

EE at BU, Junior Year.

We've got:

and a few odds and ends.

For the first two years it was probably the smallest engineering program, but then all the washed out BME's who failed orgo swapped in.

There aren't enough (read: any) electronics classes. Plenty available on the physics of transistors and the like, but nobody has classes on PCB design or anything similar. The little I have picked up seems mostly magic to my compatriots. My best guess is that this is just a side effect of that not being a particularly interesting field of research.

PhD in mathematics. Princeton, Harvard, Stanford, and even MIT, you can go fuck yourselves. While you people fiddle around with your contest mathematics and autists like Evan O'Dorney, we're here doing real math and getting shit done. It's no wonder we're ranked 1 in the WORLD for applied math. If you study mathematics ANYWHERE else, you are wasting. Your. Time.

Get outta here you normie

Molecular Biology and Math

MB:
-Largely consists of pre-med chinks or organic chemistry/biochemistry failures/double majors
-Pretty chill department with cool professors that don't really give a shit
-Pretty saturated with normies, but the chink body of the dept. is pretty introverted/spergy (including myself)
-Open storage room full of dialysis tubing

Math:
-50/50 split of turbo autismos and well-rounded, socially active normies
-Don't really know much else about the department since most of the math classes I did were at CC during high school

Veterinary medicine in Poland.

Great people, some Germans and Ukrainians, lots of girls, at least 90% of people are really smart and social, i feel fantastic and alive

must be at a low tier school. good cs programs are filled with brown & east asian girls and sort of nerdy but more-or-less normal guys, with a small subset of old school neckbeards.

CS:
-Indians. Includes many girls.
-Asians. Includes many girls.
-Slightly nerdy white guys (play League of Legends and shit). These guys are really a minority.
-Strivers (significant overlap with Indians and Asians above). These fuckers complain their way into A grades when they get marks off and hound professors into letting them do 'research' to boost their resume
Generally CS majors are intellectually lazy and poor at academics, but will do the minimum required to get their desired GPA. They then spend their time heavily investing in interview prep and resume spamming.

Math:
Most of my classes had a makeup like this
-People who love math but have no clue what they're doing, in over their heads
-Future high school teachers (girls and one or two guys). Usually take as many applied classes as possible since they're easier. Not found in advanced pure math classes usually
-Relatively normal & together guys who generally try to study hard while maintaining a normal social life. Care enough about math to study independently and take honors courses. Usually perform at b+ level
-Weird stimmed up introverted guy who doesn't talk to anyone but is always in the top 1-2 students in advanced classes. Probably Eastern European
-Extreme high IQ chinese girl -- keeps to herself and wrecks curve with stimmed up guy from above
-Standard smart but kind of female neckbeard type girls--high enough grades but not dominating, not a huge social life, probably going to do a phd
-Random guys who look basically normal but don't talk much-no clue on these fuckers since i don't talk to them. Not sure if they're the ones making a nice curve for everyone else or if they're pretty good since they don't talk

Computer Engineering:
-Large Asian population; mostly consists of Japanese/Korean males
-Very few black people, mosat of which are pretty reserved and pretty smart actually (pretty sure two of them are top 10 in the advanced classes)
-Might be 1-2 chads
-Fair sized community of total sperglords; spend most of their free time playing mtg and hosting meetups where they watch anime at this one rich autists house
-"Normal" students that get decent-good marks and are socially functional
-Most of the super high IQ people are in the Korean and African American group
-Probably the most pretentious major I've seen here, as many of the super autists and founders of the CE club like to brag about their mediocre internships, how they slightly impressed a professor or how they have macbooks or expensive computers in general
Overall, it's a pretty chill and studious environment, and most everybody keeps to themselves.

Physics:
-Strangely large Eastern European (Particulayl Ukranian) population
-Some future PhD students because they have phatt scholarships
-Extremely quiet and socially inept Brazilian girl who gets insanely high marks
That's pretty much my knowledge of this department since I did most of the physics courses at the local uni and community college during high school, so i haven't had much time to experience the culture of this undergrad.
