Person with extreme mathematical, scientific and technological knowledge. Often beleive that they have "real" lives, which usually do not extend much further than endless plot dicussion with fellow engineers about movies such as "The Matrix" (C)...
They usually tend to have extreme problems when attempting to communicate with the opposite sex.
Doctor: Your son has the knack ma'am
Mother: The knack?
Doctor: The knack, the supreme understanding of all things electrical and mechanical, along with other social ineptitude...
Mother: Will he ever live a normal life?
Doctor: No, he will be an Engineer
Mother: //Breaks down crying

Engineers make things work, even if they don't know much about it.
Da Vinci was the first scientist to study materials. Think of all the grand engineering from before that time.

An accredited psychopath. Psychopathic tendencies are not usely inherent, but emerge after the proto-engineer (see: student) has been run through courses like statics, thermodynamics, and circuits.
The difference between a psychopath and an engineer is that one has a degree.

an individual with extreme mathematical mechanical electrical physiological and other type knowledge. usually has limited knowledge or interest in all things liberal arts. usually has loathing of scientists who never contribute anything to society. are personally responsible for critical features of the earth such as terran rotation, gravity, the speed of light, and heisenberg's uncertainty principle and can change any of these principles with the power of thought.
engineers mke the world work, and often they have very good rapport with members of the opposite sex as long as they are fellow engineers and not skank liberal arts wastes of life and tuition

1. Usually a person that studies engineering and works in the field after graduating.
2. Can usually have a very strange, peculiar personality, usually because of pushy parents who stressed them to become engineers. 75% of the time, the parents aren't even engineers or smart, they just want their kids to do what they couldn't do.
3. Can be very intelligent, or in many cases, very arrogant people. Will not only claim to know everything about engineering, but also about the government, medicine, even professional sports. However, while you can't beat them at engineering knowledge, do stand up to them when they claim to know more about something you know a lot about. Sadly enough, many engineers have an ego.
1. John earned a Chemical Engineering degree and now works for Dupont making polymers.
2. Joe had a pushy mother that worked as a secretary. She made him finish every math workbook she could find until he could ace Calculus in the eighth grade. Joe now lacks appropriate interpersonal skills and cannot keep friends.
3. Mark knows everything about aerospace engineering and fixing my computer, but he thinks he knows everything about basketball, even though I played college ball. He thinks it's a game of numbers, when it's really about attitude, heart and practice, and whether or not the goddamn coach likes you!

1. A individual who accidentally wrote down "engineering" in his/her degree field when filling out college applications, just because said mom/dad/relatives/society pressured them with promises of jewels and riches upon graduation, only to find that they are masters and lords of the 8x5 ft. cubicle at said dead-end job. Often settles with a liberal arts/advertising partner to feel intellectually superior within his/her home. Has compulsive attitudes towards arranging kitchen utensils or other minor items within his/her household, and can become anal-retentive when gardening, mowing, or other yardwork activities.
Frequently cried him/herself until class the next day, since sleep was and still is nonexistent.
John was a great engineer and could solve problems, but couldn't understand why his children became druggies and burnouts at age 16.

In C&C, there the guys that sound like complete nerds and are used to repair buildings(not your buildings, public buildings, like the kind you stock with GI's or conscipts). They are most usefull when loaded into an IFV and stationed near your frontline.
Damn Engineer in an IFV ran over my lone conscript!
