engineers more than any other people in the world need to be able to communicate exactly whats on their mind as quickly, as accurately and as neatly as possible. drawing, namely sketching is a very important component to this effect. being a computer, or even biomedical engineer is of no consequence because this skill is so fundamental to engineering its demand for competence is ubiquitous across any field.

Most of engineering is a very visually intensive job - the ability to picture solutions and visualize components, for example.

If you stink at something like drafting, you are going to have a rough go of it trying to be an engineer.

I am one of those jerks who believe that "computer engineering" is in no way engineering at all. Engineers generally get their hands dirty around the materials in which they work (including electrical engineers) and engineers must work through others to actually produce their results (by creating specifications, prints, schematics and reports). This makes it a multi-degree of freedom job.

Software engineering qualifies under neither of these criteria, in my opinion.

Better to be a mechanical or electrical engineer that is good with software, than to be a "software engineer" that is good at ....?

Just an opinion.
