I disagree.
Engineering is arguably just applied math. _________________ And I'm still, still longing. Still cold... so cold. |

The comic argues that Chem is applied Physics. Additionally, it argues that Physics is applied Math (a point I agree with).
Revan says Eng'g (in the sense of construction) is applied Physics and Chem.
If Chem is applied Physics, then one might say that, in a nutshell, Eng'g is applied Physics (#).
The comic says Physics is applied Math.
Thus, since Physics is applied Math, and by (#) we see that Eng'g (in the construction sense) is applied Physics, we could say that Eng'g is "applied applied Math," or simply applied Math. ($)
Recall Revan's second statement: we know that, in the sense of CE/CS, eng'g is applied Math.
Moreover, by ($), we see that eng'g in the construction sense is also applied Math.
Therefore, Engineering, as a whole, is applied Math.

I must have had a Brain Twist when looking at it: my mind automatically replaced all instances of 'Math' in the curriculum with 'Happy Fun Time.' _________________ I shut my eyes in order to see. |

Better read the early pages then.
If you've never played/seen/known any of the Pokemon <Insert> franchise in gameboy, then you'll definitely not gonna get it. _________________ There is happiness for those who accept their fate. There is glory for those who defy their fate
