[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid doesn't have top stats and wants to be an engineer. He is applying to lesser ranked flagships and regional universities. They are all ABET accredited. For example, one of his schools is Iowa State. If he does well, we don't think it will hold him back at all. [/quote] Iowa State is an excellent engineering school and reasonable tuition for OOS. I would think that about any job would be available to an Iowa State graduate. I wouldn't worry about job prospects from a large state flagship like Iowa State. [/quote] Yes it is and of course they will get good jobs initially or eventually. However, the initial career opportunities just won't be as good compared to those graduating from one of the the top engineering schools but doesn't mean it won't balance out later based on the ISU grads performance.
