Because I think I have pretty good math and brain skills and because my school offers very good engineering program, I want to be an engineer. My father, however, is kinda opposing the idea (he also studied electricity and such, worked in subway systems), because he says an engineer has not much contact with the people and is basically "stuck" in an office room, or even worse in unsanitary or dangerous factories and such.
I know engineering varies by speciality, but I'm thinking about mechanical and civil, and I would like to know what my life would be like. Do you engineers have at least a decent exposure to the social life or all you do is basically desk work and such?
I love people and I would hate sitting in an office for 40 hour or more per week staring at computer.
I hope I didn't sound too negatively and if there is some misconception plz correct me. Thank you.
