Engineering nostalgia

Yesterday, as it was a cold & rainy weather, to keep myself busy I just happened to clean the dust fallen on my engineering day books. And as I cleaned them, just flipped thru its pages. I just went back to my college world for a moment.

Transistor - Diode - Zener diode - Resistor - Capacitor - Inductor - Ohm's laws - Kirchoff's laws - Right/left hand rules - Avalance breakdown - pnp/npn - FETs - JFETs - MOSFETs - FIR/IIR filters - OpAmps - MicroProcessor (8086) - Thermistor - Thermocouple - Strain guage - Peizo electric transducers - Fourier Transforms - FFT - DFT - Laplace transforms - Matrices - Integration/Differentiation - Maxima/Minima - Optical Instrumentation - Biomedical Instrumentation - VLSI design - Sine/Cos Wave - Phase shift - Threshold - PID controller - Microcontroller - Stepper motor - AND/OR/NOR/NOT/XOR gates - Digital shift - 555 Timer - OTDR - Encryption/Decryption - Computer Networks - Ring/Star topology - Process control - Frequency response - Log graphs - MATLAB - Keyboard program - CRO - Multimeter - Measurement - Counters - Signals And Systems - DSP - ADSP2181 on which we did our final year project - Project report - etc etc etc..

Wondering all this we studied only to get a B.E degree ?! These are not atall used today, after nearly 4 years of completing engineering.. Now I'm in a public static void main world !
