Re: Does FIRST only make engineers?
Of our five graduating seniors last year, I was one of two to go into engineering. The remaining three went into liberal arts, German language, and architecture. Most of the graduates from previous years did major in engineering or computer science, but we do have some in other fields.
While participating on my team did sway me towards engineering (and I realize now that music, my previous choice, never would have been a good option for me), it made me realize that business and management isn't all too bad. I definitely know what I would look into if engineering doesn't work out so well for me.
