To be an engineer, you would more likely be taking four semesters of physics. This would be physics classes in which calculus is a pre- or co-requesite.

Yes, you have to take at least two semesters of calculus-based physics. The rest of your engineering courses will build off of these, so most schools require you get at least a C in physics to continue as an engineering major.

There are subjects that have engineering in the title that might not strictly require physics, but without physics you are pretty much a cripple in most engineering jobs.

Of course it is. Just about every branch of engineering is based on physical principles.

No you don't NEED to do physics but it is suggested. There are many engineering feilds that don't focus on physics but there are plenty that find physics neccersary.

this may be a rude awakening but yes...you have to take physics...but not just regular physics...physics with calculus. very exciting (mind the sarcasm). ok i should not scare you...its not so bad.
