44. Other: push poll.
They are different fields, but engineering is just applied science, and applied science uses a whole lot of math, and I wouldn't say those three fields have any "different ways of knowing". As for art and religion, they can provide interesting and different perspectives, but to call those "different ways of knowing" is to dissemble on the idea of knowledge.

When you can truly discern between inspiration, thought, and knowledge, you will approach the ability to rationally discuss the concept of "different ways of knowing".
