[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid didn't choose GMU Engineering because he wanted to be farther away from home, which I totally understand, but when we visited, I remember being very impressed by Volgenau.  Shiny and new with lots of local companies working with them and giving them money.  I remember the dean telling us that students in the engineering school were in such demand that they only accepted paid internships.  The school didn't even consider working with companies that offered unpaid ones.   Plus, campus is a nice place.[/quote]

DS was invited to Engineering Day last year and that’s what impressed us as well. Impressive facilities and major companies from the area all involved in internships. We had a nice luncheon and the professors were all there and we sat at a table with two of them. Then we heard presentations about each and got to go around and meet the dean or director for each. They also just formalized the cyber security engineering degree program. Wouldn’t surprise me if DS was swayed to change to that as well.

Now that he’s accepted, he asked for a full Mason wardrobe for Xmas. I think he’s made his mind up :) Not waiting for any other acceptances to come in.[/quote]
