[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just look for 2nd/3rd tier schools. If your kid is serious about becoming an engineer, go to big schools w/ lots of research opportunities (preferably R1 schools). i don't necessarily agree with "white knuckle" schools. if you attend a school with high performing kids, it's just that much more work to keep up so you want to attend schools with similar peer groups. [/quote] I'm not sure these are any less "white knuckle" - if UMD CP is any indication - the engineering programs are intense, the coursework is tough and at a fast pace. YOu will get an excellent degree, but you have to be a student that can fully engage in that type of environment. They are perhaps not as crazy as Cornell etc but I dont think I would put them in the "slower paced or less stressful". RIT was a school that came to the top our our search. [/quote]
