A.B. Engineering vs. B.E. Engineering

<p>Can anyone comment on the desirability of an A.B. degree versus spending the extra time getting a B.E.?</p>

<p>Do recruiters come to Dartmouth and hire A.B.'s without the expectation of the candidate getting their B.E.? If so, what is the salary difference between the two degrees? </p>

<p>Also, is the curriculum much less challenging or just somewhat less challenging than a B.E.?</p>

<p>Thanks, I have a rising H.S. Junior who is looking at the different programs.</p>

<p>Check the Engineering Majors forum. I believe this was answered there.</p>
