nvm solved. The CP are labelled in the order they are found, thus option 1 ensure the CP will be restricted to BCPs and this will control its numbering in a predictable fashion
@Zhe Unfortunately we are a small minority within a small minority. Figures I was told were that Boeing has 45,000 engineers, of which only 2,000 (~5%) are of MSE.
@Zhe True, nothing interesting would happen with simple rules. I am very apathetic to chem students in P-chem when a chapter in Atkins is a course for us.
The job question goes back to the lack of publicity
@Zhe I suppose it is not polite. I only discovered the field by blind luck.
I recently sat down with a number of guidance counselors from local high schools and instead of promoting the university, I promoted MSE, figuring that the university would be a logical choice if anyone picked the field. After an hour of explaining that everything they new about college for engineers was wrong the look on their face was priceless.
