What is engineering culture like?

3 Upvotes

I really like Lehigh cause it has great engineering but you’re not surrounded constantly by engineering like a polytechnic institution. However, what are the engineers like at Lehigh? Obviously it’s not possible to know 100% what they’re like but I was wondering if there’s still some of that nerdiness (no offense, I’m a nerd deep down too, hence why I’m wondering) in the classes. Like in my robotics class rn in high school, even though I’ve not formally introduced myself to a good third of the class, we all just act like we’ve known each other and I could probably tell you half the things each kid is into (videogames, interests, etc) without even knowing them. So I was wondering if that type of environment still exists there.
