[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First figure out what kind of engineering they’re interested in. Big state schools are often great for engineering. [/quote] This. And as a contrived example, not all engineering programs offer all engineering degrees. Make sure the schools the student applies to actually offer the specific engineering degree sought. Also consider the likely specialization(s) within the degree when picking colleges to apply to. If one wants to be an EE working in semiconductor materials (rather than in VHDL logic design or 3-phase power) then pick colleges where that specialty is well supported in the ECE Dept. Unless headed for a finance job, avoid degrees in "General Engineering". As an employer, I never hire those simply because they don't bring _specific_ skills that I need to their workplace. [/quote]
