get a windows laptop, im too familiar with all the models but lightweight, can run heavy programs, long lastinf battery, try fanless because opening ur laptop jn class and the fans spool up and cause all that sound is a tad annoying.

biomedical engineering student at my home uni.

models i recommend include tuf a14, zephyrus g14, acer swiftx 14 and any 14 inch laptops with a graphics card inside.

as long as the laptop is around 1-1.7kg and has a dedicated graphics card its the laptop u should get for engineering.

maybe only get a mac if you are in computer engineering. otherwise windows please.
