Engineering Major

A four year university program that emphasizes maths and sciences, and their applications in many different fields of design. Known for its rigorous academics, engineering students have extremely high course loads (generally between 20-30 hours of class per week) and must spend considerable amounts of free time studying in order to keep up with said course loads.

Engineering majors are often bashed by those in programs with lesser course loads (especially business and arts) for having no social life. While it's true that we don't have anywhere near as much time to socialize as they do, we are more than capable of leading very normal social lives.

Also, engineering majors are pretty much guaranteed a job with at least 50k starting salary after finishing school.
*Arts major walks around with two sorority girls in his arms, and stops when he passes an engineering major, who is studying.*

Arts Major: "Hah, look at this loser in engineering, spending all his time studying, while I'm gettin laid!"

---Five Years Later---

*The engineering major pulls up to a drive thru window in his BMW, smoking hot wife sitting in the passenger seat. The arts major opens the window."

Arts Major: "Can I take your order?"

Engineering Major: "You were saying?"

The action of whacking something with one's hands or solid objects to try and get it to work.
Person A: My PC won't boot up :(

Person B: Just hit it with a hammer and it'll be fine.

Afro Engineering

Noun: a methodology of fixing or manufacturing something through unconventional means using only the (usually improper) tools and resources at hand. Also known as Ghetto rigging, nig rigging, jurry rigging, and ghettorisation. This particular variation was most likely inspired by the telivision program "Sanford and Son"
To get my car to start I had to use some duct tape and apply some afro engineering.

Ghetto Engineering Tactics

An undefined, shotgun approach to engineering.

Skipping all logical engineering methods and going straight to the "easy to implement solution"

Thinking that an "easy to implement" solution is in any way easy, or a solution.

engineering hot

The phenomena that happens when a mediocre looking girl walks into an engineering class which causes her hot rating to increase by a factor of at least 2 (+or - 4 points depending on the class's girl to guy ratio.)
She's definitley engineering hot. Maybe a 6 last night at the party but definitley a 12 today in class

Genetic Engineering

Highly advanced scientific process which involves recombining the DNA of certain organisms to reproduce new hybrid organisms for the benefit of man kind.

Although such technology has many promising applications, many of which are already in use today: Genetically modified crops. There are also many downsides: What is the value of life if it can simply be replaced?

Forsaken by religious fanatics, staunch conservatives, tree huggers as well as many well informed intelligent people. A very controversial topic.

May lead to cloning of humans and ultimately the defacing of personal identity and nature as we know it. Human ethics will come into play and are already being tested over such topics.
"I was going to die of brain cancer but thanks to genetic engineering they simply grew human cortex in a pig and now I have a pig brain instead of a human brain!"

"World hunger was ended thanks to genetically modified crops!"
