...and should my engineering job ever become obselete, I have no other "formal" training anyways, and would also have to start back at square one. College core courses are somewhat different between majors(at least in GA).

If this ever happened, I would NOT go back to school, but fall back on my hobbies; photography, performance tuning, and climbing/mountaneering. Each of those can earn you a living, albeit a lower level than say real estate or engineering job.
