Great for parties, I hear
Back on topic... Skills in physics, maths and chemistry are the basic underpinning of all engineered systems.
I complained like everyone else when we were taught straight theory for nearly the whole first half of my mechatronics engineering degree but I am glad I was exposed to all that now. Too many in the control software industry don't have any special knowledge of physics or mathematics even if their knowledge of electrical systems is up to scratch.
