[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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

[b]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. [/b]

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.[/quote]
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.[/quote]
