[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When do you think this makes sense? I have a highschooler who seems to be drawn to both, but they don't seem to overlap, except maybe at a couple schools, and then maybe not so well. Somebody here must have had their child do engineering at a LAC, right?[/quote] Swarthmore and Harvey Mudd are the best intersection of the two. A close compromise would be Ivies or similar -sized top privates: they each have about 250-500 engineering students per year, not counting cornell which is both larger and more siloed like publics with engineering. With 250-500 in the engineering school each year it feels smaller like a LAC in many ways yet the benefit is the huge research dollars and benefits of a 5000-10000 size uni that SLACs do not have[/quote]
