Can’t speak for medicine, but I can definitely say that engineering doesn’t require a massive ego. It can reward it but I’ve worked with some very good, humble engineers in my time. Also one of two massive dickheads of course because as I say it can reward ego at times. In reality the majority of engineers I’ve known have been perfectly decent individuals. In reality I think it’s being any kind of expert that can do this to you - Michio Kaku and Neil Degrasse Tyson famously both have engineer brain.
