[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an engineer, I interview young engineering grads, and I wouldn't have known U Mich is any better than UVA unless you told me. Just know that more local companies recruit on campus, so if his ultimate goal is back in Virginia then UVA may be the better choice.[/quote] I am a hiring manager in the engineering world and agree with this. I would not make much of a distinction between the 2 if going straight from BS to professional career. I can't speak to how graduate schools would regard the 2 experiences. Decent GPA, internships, and having some significant projects (either through internship, college courses, and/or on personal time) to demonstrate proficiency far outweigh the name of the school if getting a job right out of undergrad[/quote]
