When I was in engineering undergrad (1993-97), popular non-scitech reads were: Adams, Pratchett, Vonnegut, LOTR, Catch 22. And I hate to admit it...Ayn Rand (to our credit, mostly hated)
Has the list changed much since? What did engineering students in the 00’s and ‘10’s read?

Yes, it has changed a lot. Now, there are several women writers and writers of color. I would definitely put aside this white-guys list for good. :)

Not what I asked. I asked what engineers actually read in those decades, not what you think they ought to have been reading.

I was an engineer in those decades too. :) My response was based on what I (and others like me) were reading.
