      I had two favorite subjects when I was in school: History and Art. They’re not the type of subjects people associate with engineering but they were my favorite and I’ve found them to actually be quite useful to me as an engineer.
      Art is great because it teaches you to be creative and to use your imagination which is one of the best tools you can have as an engineer. History has also been useful because it taught me to appreciate what has happened in the past and the changes that it made to our future! This is also important because as an engineer you need to make sure that you are not just creating solutions that will work today, you need to make sure that they will still work in the future and that they will not be harming the world for future generations!
