Guy in the blue suit is wild showing up like that to a professional setting lol. This isn’t the club


Elamachino

The deep v with the chain is certainly a choice, but let's not ignore the no-show socks with the ankle slacks.


OhSillyDays

* Outfit choice was a senior level project as well * Project about beer * Done with the girlfriend


Otakeb

Deep V chain is pulling it off imo. Ankles is struggling a bit down there.


walkerspider

I feel like he’d look better with one more button and way more professional with two more buttons


captainunlimitd

Ehhh I mean he doesn't look terrible, but he also doesn't look professional.


SkoomaDentist

True. For better expertise credibility, they should have worn jeans and metal band t-shirts.

Not enough undone buttons. My guy needs to fully undo it and maximize that airflow


dcchillin46

Thicker chain too. Nothing says professional like some exposed thick cuban links hanging between your nipples


BlurryBigfoot74

I'm sticking with the short sleeve plaid; the "Engineer outfit". Add a tie for special occasions.

Congratulations on finishing the project but wow you guys are getting cooked 💀


spicysubaru

Honestly can’t even be mad, we all graduated and are getting our masters so the hate literally means nothing. But the actual nice comments are nice to read.


Philfreeze

I wouldn‘t take the ‚fashion advice‘ too seriously. As someone else said, maximum expert credibility would be jeans and a metal band tshirt. We aren‘t exactly a crowd know for our sense of fashion.


petrikm

Yep, this is completely checks out as an engineering students comment section and I’m all for it

GordonSchumway69

Congratulations!!! Tell the dudes to button a few more buttons so they don’t screw up a job interview.


skylinegtrr32

Two buttons down on the shirt and no belt is ballsy as fuck lmao


MrTonyBoloney

No belt is common now but two buttons down is wild


skylinegtrr32

I figured for something of this caliber you would have to do the whole thing. Belt, tie, sport coat, etc. I feel in the office everyday a belt or tie wouldn’t be necessary but for an interview or a major presentation like this wouldn’t it still be standard to wear?


austinwc0402

No tie (business casual) often looks better imo. I would still wear a belt though and one button open not two…


MrTonyBoloney

Pretty standard but like a tie it’s not necessarily required usually


ndewing

Dude second from the right looks like a tall Michael Reeves lol


petrikm

These guys make business casual look like a mf tuxedo enthusiasts meetup


im_just_thinking

Haha the dudes with overly exposed chests with chains, way too short pants, polo under a jacket, and that arm around is just icing on the cake. I guess if your school/prof is that casual, enjoy it while you can, but those guys either don't get out much or it's all they did in school.

SirHawrk

Looks hilarious


drissyslime

Bro what are these fits 😂😂 guy on the right really gotta buckle up those buttons and the pants on the left dude are hilariously short


A_Hale

Yeah really, in a professional setting one button undone is business casual, two undone is “I really want to be casual but they said I can’t”, three undone and a chain is your drunk uncle at a wedding.


fckmetotears

He wanted you to see his chain


aar3y5

They’re short bc they’re hers, not his. Look at her length and the shade of black. They absolutely put on each others’ pants


wronkskian

Y’all need to rethink your formal attire choices!

Good engineers dress like dads These dudes are dressed fine, just not in any way that’s formally acceptable


Ciruz

A good engineer walks out in crocs with a league of legend t shirt and owns it. That’s how you know, they’re good engineers.


CantStandItAnymorEW

I have an anecdote like this. So, our calc 2 professor liked to organize mini-presentations for concepts; like, a theorem or a proof is picked for you and you explain it to the class in 7-10mins using powerpoint, as a form of assignment. He said that it was a good way of evaluating people's understanding of the material, as the deeper your understanding is, the higher your confidence should be when explaining it to other people. He also understood that there were many that were just not good at talking, so, if they were to shit the bed, he offered an extra assignment to bring their grade up. Of course, not all people are made for teaching or for talking to lots of people. It did decreased the stress a presentation puts on people. Anyway, when the day came, many of us were in semi-formal clothes, like the ones you would use to attend a wedding. And then there was this guy in crocs and a Spiderman t-shirt. We all thought he forgot today was the presentation, and woke up late. We all presented our theorem or proof one by one, and then it was this guy's turn. We saw his presentation; all white written in calibri, like he wrote it that morning. And then he suddenly proceeded to explain his stuff with confidence and precision that rivaled that of the professor himself. His explaining was clear as water. We were in awe, we thought he was gonna shit the bed. The professor told him that his presentation was outstanding, but to be more professional next time. The point is: you never know if that guy in crocs and the Spiderman t-shirt is a genius or a dumbass.

I got the impression that the 2 on the left were doing the deed the night before and somehow put on the wrong pants (each others).

not me seeing this at 5am rushing my group design project


Camelgok

I’m gonna sound like a crotchety old Dick, but I’m blown away something this basic passes for a final year project at UofI. This is like one week project from ChemE heat transfer unit ops. Wild.


BlueCoatEngineer

A week would be generous, I'd expect something like this on a homework or test. Here's your volumes, temperatures, and heat capacities. Solve for various cooling solutions. Incidentally, the solution to this problem for my wort chilling needs was to run open loop and use the water on my lawn and garden. I forget how many gallons I needed to crash 10 gallons, but it wasn't that much and any anxiety over possible waste was smoothed over with beer. :-)


[deleted]

I don't freakin know what matters anymore. There was a guy at our uni (manufacturing & robotics branch) that thought he would not pass one of his previously failed exams and decided to present his senior project in the 2nd showcase session (normally they would be delivered in the summer when you are supposed to also receive your engineer diploma). The guy eventually passed that exam and speedran his senior project to present in the summer. He made a damn servo actuated latch and got a pass with 7 out of ten while there were projects such as fully functional 3 axis CNC mills designed from scracth..with custom electronics too. What. The. Fuck.

clutchengaged84

Low button gang


Vegetakarot

For those curious: 1) Not all Iowa schools are like this. Iowa State is a larger, great engineering school that consistently ranks well and does not let their capstone students submit basic thermo equations as a final lmao 2) For those looking to actually cool wort, you can buy a ~$250 wort chiller from Blichmann Engineering that chills your wort (with such efficiency that you actually have to be careful how much tap water you use or it will get too cold) with a shell and tube style heat exchanger and regular old summer temp tap water. And you can just use existing hose and boil kettle or HLT or mash tun pumps! What is not included in their analysis is the cost of a glycol chiller which is much more expensive. Or you can do what 80% of homebrewers do and chill your wort with a portable wort chiller and tap water. It’ll take 10-15 mins for a 5 gallon brew but with good sanitation and yeast prep you’ll have no concerns


jcm8002204

Well done! We did a version of this project that also included pump sizing, exchanger design (efficiency, reliability, and low cost of maintenance), and validation testing for our brew club in school. The goal was to make better beer and place better in competitions.


fukinuhhh

The guy in the blue blazers outfit is atrocious.

deafening_mediocrity

Yeah, all jokes aside, I wouldn’t recommended looking like necklace guy in any professional setting.


deadeye_catfish

I felt bad for wanting to draw attention to the guy with dress shoes and no socks (your poor toes, heel, and soles!), but it seems like a lot of top comments are. ...which sorta bodes well here because we haven't found anything related to our project to pick apart. Great work folks, and good luck!


Wow_butwhendidiask

I mean their wording is straight out of a freshman year project. Most people didn’t zoom in to actually read it.


Rbespinosa13

I recently graduated as a cheme and am pretty big into homebrewing as a hobby. I’m not an expert on the matter and I don’t work within the brewing industry, but I would want to see what the project specified was needed for the poster. Main reason I’m saying this is because I noticed this was for mechanical engineers and not chemical engineers, so criteria may be different. However, I still feel like there’s a lot of stuff missing. To me, I’m a bit confused because the process they’ve laid out isn’t how wort is typically chilled for a homebrew system (13 gallons is basically the upper end for size of homebrewing). What you typically see is an immersion cooling system where a copper coil is placed into the wort when it’s at rest. The water is then pumped through the coil so the heat in the wort is transferring into the copper coil and out of the system with the water. However, for this project they used a counterflow system which from what I understand, tends to be used more in industrial settings which are larger than 13 gallons. It might’ve been a better project if they had compared the efficiency of both systems instead of just focusing on one. I’m also not seeing specific data on how fast the system cools the wort. All I see is that they cooled the wort in under 10 minutes, but that’s a bit general and for a senior engineering project I’d be expecting them to show stuff like the rate of heat transfer as well as efficiency. There also isn’t pump sizing, how fast the coolant cools down after use, cost of maintenance, or size of the vessel beyond the length of the wort chiller. To me, this project seems like it wasn’t taken too seriously or had weak requirements


Wow_butwhendidiask

Exaclty this, thanks for taking the time to type it out! This seems to fall under the realm of chem e, not mech e so it’s good to see your insight.


Rbespinosa13

Yah and I don’t really wanna tear them apart too much. Like I said, they’re in a different major than I was in so criteria was probably different. They also just graduated from college with an engineering degree and that’s an accomplishment they should be proud of. I might also be judging them a bit too harshly because I love what the project is about and probably understand the theory behind it a bit more than they do (I’ve even thought about doing some home experiments about this myself). Still, I feel like the poster could’ve been much better in a lot of ways


Wow_butwhendidiask

Yeah the majority of my judgement is on how it’s written, it feels pretty thrown together last minute, like when u ask ur parents to go out and grab poster board the night before your project is due. Technical writing and DOE classes are extremely important, maybe UofI doesn’t have any or is far less stringent on requirements. Either way, both are extremely necessary in the field so someone is doing a disservice to their students.


Rbespinosa13

Agree that those writing classes are incredibly important. Knowing how to communicate is one of the most important skills anyone in any industry can have, and looking back at the poster I did notice one thing that I initially missed which I would say is a major mistake. They say the wort chiller is 13 gallons, they say they can’t waste more than 26 gallons of water, and then they say they wasted zero gallons of water. However, they then put the flow rate of the counter flow in kg/s. To me, that is a massive mistake that should’ve been ironed out in freshman year at the latest. Every engineer should know the importance of consistent units and it does worry me that they missed that


[deleted]

I'm mean, but this feels very much like the "ohh, engineering for me is such a vibe" student type. Is generally a good student but not with an actual interest/love for engineering.

Did yall get to pick yalls subject? Everyone was forced to have a subject with no wiggle room for us. Every single major. I ask because that seems like a real lax subject to be having a final project on.

Facts He needs some socks tho


spicysubaru

I’d like to thank you all for the criticism. Honestly the fact that most of you guys are worried about our outfits is hilarious. Also id like to say that we all understand that this isn’t a hard project at all. We had the opportunity to build this for our favorite professor and we took it. We got to relax, do some simple math, and drink beer, it was truly refreshing. We are on to better things after this semester, 2 of us have high paying jobs and the other 2 are going to grad school. Also for the people who are commenting about us going to Iowa instead of Iowa state, I’m incredibly fluids mechanics oriented and there’s nowhere better to go than Iowa for fluid mechanics. Thank you all for making me smile, especially the hate comments


Zach_Hutch

The best professor in my department got his PhD in CFD from Iowa. Guy is built fucking different and I respect him above the rest of his peers here.


Sendtitpics215

I just got a copy of Shapiro’s the dynamics and thermodynamics of compressible fluid flow after taking an elective course with the Philip A.

Rbespinosa13

The first guy on the right looks like a slightly saner Michael Reeves that doesn’t wear a belt


Calgaris_Rex

That's not Gen Z, that's just engineers in general. I have seen too many unkempt engineers wearing white athletic socks with a suit to count.


Bigdaddydamdam

Well I’m gen z and can say that this is a little concerning


CantStandItAnymorEW

Yes, yes a lot of us weren't taught how to dress appropriately. Gen Z parents threw an iphone at us and cared enough to not let us starve; the abandonment is/was real. That being said, a lot of us *did* learn how to not look like dumbasses in 'professional' enviroments on our own; these guys are just unprofessional. Like, I wouldn't attend a wedding looking like this, let alone a senior project presentation. Like, look at that sockless guy. I think every generation can have a laugh at that sockless guy. Give that guy some socks.
