So far, I am considering CalTech and Berkley. Any other good universities in teh US that has a good engineering course? By engineering, I mean overall. However, I am not looking for things like ceramics engineering or food engineering. Try somewhere along the lines of aerospace engineering, or computer engineering.

Anywhere else thats good other than Caltech or Berkley? (I dont really want to go to MIT, dont ask)

My school, Rowan University, doesn't have Aerospace but it does have the following 4:
Electrical and Computer
Civil and Environmental (my major)
Chemical
Mechanical

We're ranked pretty high in undergrad in the nation though I forget the exact numbers. Rowan is a teacher's college for the most part; it used to be called Glassboro State Teacher's College. However, about 10 years ago Henry Rowan (some big oil tycoon) decided to donate $100 million to create an engineering program at Rowan. Us engineers comprise less than 5% of the student body but we know what we're doing. We provide a clinic based program where you get you start gaining application experience from Day 1.

Anyway, I'm in a bit of a rush because I have to go to work but if you're interested, I could go more in depth as to what Rowan has to offer.

MIT is top engineering school in the nation according to a magazine I got on colleges last week.

air force has some decent programs but yeah west point i would say has the best engineering program of the military schools

dunno about aerospace but u of i has a decent engineering program my bro goes there for electrical engineering

Well, I was planning to be an engineer, but my prospects sort of went up, but I'm planning to go to Berkeley (or Stanford, I know, laem) too. Hm. As for Engineering, I can't really argue with CalTech, JPL is the capital of that world. Lol, they can make a car powered by a balloon ( one balloon, normal size) go 200+ feet. Now thats engineering. Also, this might be pm material, but where u live? I live in walnut creek, east bay. Post in mesh's thread for duelers near you, cuz Cali only has two at the moment ( me and knarl ) Also, good luck getting into "Berkley". Laughing

GA TECH... one of the best engineering schools in the country

in the top 20 for best quality schooling for your buck too... in atlanta... so its fun, if you dont mind dealing with the traffic... good school though, you should consider it

ga tech and va tech are pretty good and arn't too hard to get into.

berkeley is a great school, but um, yeah, hard to get in.
