| Please please please call the mental health services at Emory. I am glad you love your school but you are unhinged and unwell. I'm not saying this in a snarky way either. Please get help. |

Uh Short Line is best because it offers a safe landing between the expensive green blue properties. Emory is second. |

Resorting to insults after being silenced. Priceless! |

I know you go to UMich but it can't be too hard for you. Google Emory career placement. You'll find it. |

Handy link. If you look at the sidebar on the left, at Undergraduate, click on New Applicants to see numbers accepted and enrolled as well as test score ranges. |

As a parent with a kid at Emory I find this thread amusing. I think there are several things going on here. Emory offers Engineering but it is through a dual degree program with GA Tech. http://college.emory.edu/dual-degree/engineering/explore-engineering.html
The poster who keeps saying that Emory doesn't have engineering is being a little stupid. Emory offers engineering but in partnership with GA Tech. As a side note the new President of Emory is an engineer and one of his charges is to help Emory strengthen its engineering offering - so my guess is that they will try to build out a program that takes place just at Emory. Not sure this is a high priority now given Covid but I'm sure that was part of the appeal of hiring the new President - he came from UT-Austin. Just wanted to bring some facts to the conversation. FWIW my kid is a political science major (pre-law) and loves Emory and is having a good experience - despite Covid. And I too do not think of Emory as a engineering school but to say they don't offer engineering is just stupid. |

Outsourced to GeorgeTech is not the same as made by Emory. |

Duh, I can google. It does say anything about that list being non-business majors tho. |

Emory does not offer engineering. You cannot take Engineering courses at Emory. You take three years of classes at Emory and then transfer to Georgia Tech for two (or three) years. It’s the exact same program at Montgomery College, a local cc offers. A student who did it thru MC and a student who did it through Emory would get the exact same engineering diploma. |

| My son is a dual degree student at Emory and Georgia Tech. Emory does not have an engineering program so students do their engineering degree through Georgia Tech. It’s a 5, often 6 year program, so if you don’t want to go to two different schools for five or six years, look elsewhere. Also keep in mind that you can apply to Georgia Tech from any other school, not just Emory. There are many other colleges that have dual degree programs with GT, not just Emory. |

It's basically a 3-2 engineering program. Hundreds of schools offer them. It's not an engineering program at Emory. It's pre-engineering at Emory and then trying to transfer to an engineering program at GA Tech. Admission to GA Tech's engineering program is not guaranteed. If this qualifies Emory as "having an engineering program" then hundreds of SLACs also have engineering programs. Bowdoin, Amherst, Oberline, Reed, Grinnell, Macalester and every other LAC that I can think of offer the same thing. Emory doesn't have an engineering program. |
