<p>I am thinking about doing chemical engineering for my undergraduate studies at Cornell. I was wondering how industry receives engineers from Cornell. Also, I am thinking about pursuing an MBA after my chemical engineering degree, does anyone have any information on how the following MBA programs view graduates from Cornell:
1. Wharton
2. Harvard
3. Sloan</p>

<p>i'm also in a gridlock here, between ucla, northwestern, upenn, and cornell. cornell is probably the best engineering school of all four of the schools that i've been accepted to, but i dont know if its rigor is for me. a little snippet from the princeton review said that a cornell engineering student is likely to go to the library after class and not leave until 2 AM. now, i know that is exaggerated, but is it really that rigorous? give me an example of a really tough week, that would be great</p>
<p>on top of that, ithaca is a far different location from philadelphia or los angeles. i know there are job fairs and internships that are abundant at those schools for prospective engineers, but what are those opportunities like for cornellians? it'd great to hear back about that</p>

<p>umm, interested in knowing too... (in other words, bump)</p>
<p>1) Very rigorous course-load, among the most qualitative in America.
2) Very competitive class making you work harder.
3) Hands on approach to engineering
4) Good induatrial interface
5) Very good facilities
6) World renowned proffessors (eg Bill Nye)
7) Oppertunity to pursue a number of other interests aka flexibility
8) Research tie-ups with GM and Eastman Kodak.
9) Renowned department with many achievments:
[ul][<em>]Won Int'l RobobCup maximum number of times.
[</em>]Won SAE 9yrs in a row.[/ul]
to name a few
10) Beautiful campus.
11) Good food
12) Very good recruitment options and commendable job fair.'</p>
