Aerospace Purdue or UT Austin

<p>I would appreciate advice on the difference (strengths and weaknesses) between these two colleges for an Aerospace undergraduate degree. UT is in state for us while Purdue will be out of state. We have visited both campuses and have a feel for campus life. Any comments on the programs themselves and how good their co-op programs are will be helpful. Thanks in advance</p>

<p>UT in-state is much cheaper than Purdue for comparable programs. As far as recruiting for engineering, similar companies recruit at both. Although for ASE, I would think UT will have an advantage since NASA is in Houston, and many major aerospace defense contractors are located in Dallas. Whereas, there aren’t too many aerospace contractors in Indiana.</p>
