I'm planning on taking a 3-year Advanced Diploma in a college for Electromechanical Engineering Technology. If I do well in this program, then I will transfer to an undergraduate engineering program at some university.
I've been thinking, if the Technology program is equivalent to just some of the basics of engineering, what could I teach myself during the free-time I'll have while in college? It would be so nice if all the self-taught materials will ease off some of the mental stress from the undergraduate program. I know it's going to very stressful based off all the talks going on in the forums, and the fact that I am not gifted in anything. I really have no idea. Do you folks think I should just relax, and just focus on doing well in this course? Maybe spend the time mastering CAD or anything else related to the course, instead of trying to self-teach myself X,Y,Z random topics with no teacher to give me feedback on incorrect understanding?
Here are the topics that I'll be learning:
Term 1
Math (no other details given)
Concepts and Mechanical Applications - CAD1 Applications
Applied Mechanics 1
Health, Work and Safety
Mechanical Drafting Fundamentals
Applied Electricity
Technology: Apocalypse or Eden? (This, I am not sure what it is...)

Computer Assisted Design for 3D models
Computer Applied Mechanical (??)
