Re:Is it time to change the undergraduate physics curriculum? by kwhitefoot on Friday December 01, 2017 @01:28AM (#15822333)
Please let's not reduce the amount of fundamental physics in a bachelor's degree. I have to work with people who have graduated relatively recently (recent to my graduation from Exeter Uni. in 1977 that is) and they often have a woefully inadequate grasp of the basics. This has a strong impact on their abilities as engineers later, in my field at least (transformers). They can learn to code after they have mastered basic EM, QM, and Newtonian mechanics.
