In my second year of Aerospace Engineering at Embry-Riddle. I like it so far I really enjoy the challenge of the math and science classes. I've noticed so far that most engineering teachers are not really good teachers because they can't explain things very well. For the most part engineering science books aren't too useful either because they are poorly written and have worthless examples.
Some how I end up learning the material through a combination of sifting through crappy books and listening to the professor try to explain the stuff. The most useful thing an engineering professor can do is give as many examples as possible so you can learn to apply the concepts and equations to something real. No matter how bad the teacher they can redeem themselves by doing plenty of examples.
