[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]JMU is a great school, not as well known for engineering.[/quote] In all honesty, JMU is not known for engineering at all. Engineering is not a single discipline…it is multiple disciplines, and universities typically have a school of engineering with departments for some mix of: Agricultural, Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, Aerospace, Mining, Biomedical, Systems (which can mean different things to different people), and now, Computer, etc. What JMU has for engineering is basically Mechanical with a little Civil (for sustainability). If that resonates with your college bound student, it could be a fine choice. If your student has their sights set on other than Mechanical, is undecided, or if they are prone to changing their minds, then JMU should not even be in the conversation…and that is not a knock.[/quote]
