civil engineer

Originally defined as "civil" due to its separation from the military. In the past it denoted all types of engineering including electrical, mechanical, mining, etc. Today it includes bridges, canals, docks, foundations, harbors, off-shore construction, railways, river basin management, sewerage, soil mechanics, structural design, construction, traffic engineering, water supply, etc. The field so large that no engineer can easily specialize in more than two areas.

In other words, civil engineering deals with civilization building and maintenance.

They also like to drink beer, crack lewd jokes, and are generally above average in both looks and intelligence thus guaranteeing that they can attract members of the opposite sex and fill the world with more civil engineers.

Unreal Engine

A really powerful game engine used by Epic Games. Very beautiful and popular engine, one of the very best engines out there for video games. It very popular because it supports practically any platform it's put on (PC, XBox, Gamecube, PS2, etc... and even Mac)

A great deal of the gameplay code is written in UnrealScript, a proprietary scripting language, and as such large parts of the gameplay can be modified without delving deep into the engine internals. As with other middleware packages, the Unreal Engine provides various tools to assist with content creation for designers and artists.

It has 3 versions: 1 (1998-2002), 2 (03-06), and 3 (06-future)

biomedical engineering

A major or field of study that sucks the life out of its participants. Since it is strongly related to medicine, a lot of undergraduates study BME as pre-med students. However, they quickly learn that after classes such as 'Analysis of Biosignals and Systems' and 'Instrumentation Lab', biomedical engineering is not worth the lack of life it creates.
Well, I was studying biomedical engineering. Then our entire class failed Biosignals even though the curve was around 30%, so I switched to Business.
