>>21823046>A lot of people on YouTube say it's just a lot of mathEngineering makes use of math, but is not the same as math. That's one of the things they drill you down at engineering school practically from day one.
In the first two years (freshman and sophomore), engineering students gotta take some math courses (Calc I-III, Diff. Eq., Probability, Statistics, Num. Anal./Meth.), some Engineering Physics courses (Stats, Fluids, Thermo, Electromagnetism, etc.), and some other general studies/liberal arts shit, but none of what they learn is just learning math for its own sake, physics for its own sake, or anything else for its own sake. It's all math and scientific knowledge meant to be used to design stuff like bridges, engines, power generators, skyscrapers, and other kinds of things. Every single bit of math, even seemingly abstract stuff from graph theory or about modular arithmetic, is applicable to the analysis and design of anything from algorithms for task scheduling in computers to planning out routes for massive logistical operations (say, in a company like FedEx or Amazon).
While it might be true that there can be some pretty-looking curves here and there that are to be found in math books, all of those equations, sets, forms, etc. that they learn about are meant to be used for the sake of understanding other stuff that essential equipment and infrastructure depend on.
