<p>I am 100% in love with cars and want to study mechanical engineering. My dream is to develop internal combustion engines for cars. I'm applying to Cal Poly SLO, UIUC, Iowa State, and University of Alabama. Does anyone know any other schools that have mechanical engineering degrees with good automotive programs?</p>

<p>I see that you’re applying to Alabama. Have you looked at this wonderful opportunity:</p>

<p>“”
Students in the program will first complete two years of engineering and German language course work at The University of Alabama, as well as an internship the summer before their sophomore year with Mercedes-Benz U.S. International in Vance, Alabama.</p>

<p>The students will then travel to Hochschule Esslingen for one semester of course work and one semester of professional practice during their 
junior year.</p>

<p>Mercedes-Benz is not the only consumer in the program. Other industries in the Esslingen area include Daimler, Bosch and Behr.</p>

<p>Balasubramanian said the mission of the exchange program is to prepare students for the variety of German and multinational companies in the southeastern United States.</p>

<p>“The students work as interns in a German automotive company or supplier,” he said. “They get a deep insight into how a German company works, and we hope that when the students come back from their year abroad that they then go to work for a German multinational in Alabama or the Southeastern region.”

<p>The exchange program for UA is actually one of the main reasons why I am applying there.</p>

<p>They were also selected by GM for this design competition. (The list of schools participating in this event could give you other options).</p>
