I STRONGLY recommend reading the book "Putt's Law and the Successful Technocrat" 
to get an idea why a different way of decision making is absolutely
crucial, if any cool technical achievements are supposed to be
meaningful at all.

I've spent way too much time and piled up academic degrees much too high
and deep before I came to this insight.

Just my 2 cents' worth [actually 3 cents, I'm from Euro land]

Christoph <- Hmmm ... seems I need to donate the book to the noisebridge
library
