the “art” of engineering only works out if you are solid on the basics and that means a good understanding of the relevant physics, chemistry, biology and math as well as the ability to quantify the whole thing with proper math.

Would you like me to describe the many tasks an engineer is responsible that does not involve physics, chemistry, biology, and math?

  Answering your bosses mail, that the project cannot be done in the ridicolous time the marketing and sales team promised to the customer isn’t exactly an art specific to engineers.

  Yeah, I was gonna say, as an engineer not much of that is true.

There’s plenty of engineers that are bad at math and science. They just worked hard to get where they are (or they got lucky).

  Yeah but those aren’t the artists of engineering.
