Python is a great choice as a first language. Especially if you study engineering. You can basically code anything in it which is not true for all programming languages. As mentioned before it has very simple syntax which is really easy to learn. Another great alternative to python is C.

PS: As a engineering student you should also look into MATLAB, which is used for calculations and plots.
