I am not motivated enough to teach myself such things. Maybe i could motivate myself, but from my own personal experience i know that i learn better in a scholastic environment. The schools don't make me dislike learning, i love learning, and i try to do it on my own quite frequently. Unfortunately, i have tried and found it quite difficult to teach myself any number of things of the math and science persuasions. Such things are easy to misunderstand and because of this benefit from the presence of someone who is an expert on the subject. Also, as someone working towards a degree in engineering i doubt i could reasonably get access to the kind of equipment needed for my education on my own.
