I have friends who graduated with varying engineering degrees. I've been in the IT business for about a decade, and I've steadily moved my way from a lowly PC technician, to my current position as a "Network Engineer".
These days, I build and maintain voice/data networks that support the IT infrastructure of one of the largest Wireless/Telecom companies in the nation.
I'm happy to call myself a Network Engineer when people ask what I do, but my friends with engineering degrees like to tell me I'm not a "real engineer".
What do y'all think?
