Rawrn3ss Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) I really really want to do a Biology EE but I have no time or the resources during the summer to do one. I was thinking about doing a biology based history essay instead. However, I'm worried that mixing two extremely different subjects could lower my mark. My topic was going to be about vaccinations and how they suppress our immune system throughout time. The only problem is that vaccines haven't been around that long so the history aspect wouldn't be very enriched.

__inthemaking Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 You could do that, but I would say that's strictly history. For any sciences EE, you HAVE to perform an experiment and your essay will be in the form of a lab report (complete with graphs, diagrams, tables, trials, conclusions, etc). Personally, I don't think that's a good topic to do because with history EEs, you need a topic that can be backed up or opposed by a variety of historians (speaking from experience--I did a history EE). You have to be able to support your claims, and take one side of an argument. I'm not sure if there ARE sides to the argument here. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawrn3ss Posted June 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 Thanks. But disregarding the topic, is mixing subjects for an EE advisable? Are such EE averages lower than one that is entirely surrounding one subject? Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lily Bean Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Mixing subject is NOT recommended and yes apparently if your essay doesn't lean one way or another in term of subject you'd lose mark in the subject specific criteria Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
