OP here, I think it might be. I went to Northwestern, which has great engineering and is not that much bigger, and I think he wants a smaller experience than I had.

maybe Marquette or MSOE? its not really that cold out here anymore. basically like dc in the 1980s.

They give great merit aid as well.

I grew up in DC in the 80s, and I travel to MKE monthly for work. MKE is colder than DC in the 1980s.

But those are both good schools.

One more suggestion: Gonzaga. Small class sizes in the engineering program, ABET accredited, undergrad enrollment 5k, in a small city. Various levels of merit scholarships for good students.

Here's a handy website for looking up engineering enrollment size for different majors and demographics: https://shinyapps.asee.org/apps/Profiles/

R1 Unis have a lot more research happening. Keep that in mind.

Santa Clara University. They have a brand-new, one-hundred-million-dollar engineering building. All the classrooms have glass walls so you can see what’s going on during the tour. Their are no TA’s, so professors are doing all the teaching. My son got $24,000/yr merit aid. He’s doing civil engineering. Great internship and study abroad opportunities.

Thanks for reviving this. My daughter is also interested in a smaller program. Does anyone have any experience with engineering at Smith?

Lehigh’s undergrad pop is under 5k, which you said would work.
