[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also thought MV calculus was the most fun thing ever and would encourage her to consider Mechanical Engineering as a major. If not Mech E, there are a lot of other applied math majors like data analytics or majors that require math-like analytical skills, like CS. Math majors end up focusing on theory more than fun math like calculus and many math majors become disillusioned. It's just not the same.[/quote] Calculus isn't the same as "fun math". Fun is personal preference. Pure math is harder than applied math. High school and calculus is applied math. Engineering majors get disillusioned too. It's hard in a different way. [/quote] OP said that her daughter considers MV calculus fun. I was using her definition. If that's what her daughter loves, she'd likely enjoy engineering more than a pure math major.[/quote]
