Suggest all engineering disciplines

CEans,

At the time of registration, we ask users to enter their engineering discipline. Despite of the clear instructions to enter the engineering discipline as "Electrical" , or "Mechanical" or "Computer" etc., a lot of our members enter "electrical engineering", "studying IT engineering" into the text box. That results into messed up mini-profile in posts.

So, I'm thinking of creating a drop-down list of all engineering disciplines that users can choose from. So here's the list of Engineering disciplines that come to my mind. Suggest more, please. ๐Ÿ˜€

  1. Aeronautical
  2. Aerospace
  3. Agricultural
  4. Automobile
  5. BioTech
  6. Civil
  7. Electrical
  8. Electronics
  9. Mechanical
  10. Mechatronics
  11. Metallurgy
  12. Mining
  13. Structural

    Mechanical and Automation (Thats my line, its mechanical engineering with automation and mechatronics including some of their subjects like control added to the course)
    We once had a Waterproofing engineer here at CE.
    Marine Engineer
    Chemical
    Environmental
    Genetic
    Industrial
    Instrumentation
    Instrumentation and Control
    Military
    Nuclear
    Polymer Science
    Ceramic
    Geotechnical

    Well, we'll stick to parent branches. That's why we do not have Electronics and Telecommunication as a separate branch.

    But hey, let's decide it later. Let the disciplines flow in ๐Ÿ˜‰

    What about Computers and IT?

    And we forgot them. How could these two escape our(Biggie and me) minds.

    you can also add-up Textile engg & Ship-building/naval architecture

    Biggie, if you can put Automobile as separate from Mechanical, you can put Telecommunications separately from Electronics too! ๐Ÿ˜›

    What I suggest is to add both parent and specializations, eg:
    E&E: Power Generation
    E&E: Communications

    Mechanical: Aerospace
    Mechanical: Automotive

    Biotechnology: Genetics
    Biotechnology: Biochemical


    etc..

    The list may be very long, but its a one off thing. CEans would be glad to see their specialization listed ๐Ÿ˜€ IEEE has a nice list of different societies.

    Makes sense. I'll post a list soon. Let's get this done.

    In that sensce,even civil and structural should be bracketed together

    Shall we use the ready made list available on IEEE page: -> #-Link-Snipped-# ?

    The only problem is that the list will become too long. Will that be a problem? What do you think?

    It should be alright for now. Perhaps we can use this thread for CEans who wish to request additional disciplines if needed.

    I dont think a long list would be a problem ๐Ÿ˜€ The more disciplines the better!

    Well in that sence there might more 1000 engineering disciplines!!
