<p>What are some good colleges in the Northeast for Engineering? esp (Aerospace)</p>
<p>I have heard about Rutgers, UMD...what others are out there?</p>
<p>cornell////</p>
<p>Princeton, Cornell, UMD, MIT, Penn State</p>
<p>Also, look into RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) in New York. And although not technically in the Northeast, Virginia Tech is also a school you should look into.</p>
<p>olin maybe? and urochester i believe is pretty good, just some that haven't been mentioned, although i don't know specifically about aerospace at these two schools.</p>
<p>Rose-Hullman isn't far out of the Northeast, and it's amazing.</p>
<p>Yes, Indiana is right next door ;)</p>
<p>Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, Pittsburgh, Penn, Rutgers</p>
<p>And, uh, unless the 500 miles of land occupied by Ohio and Pennsylvania were blown up without me knowing and Indiana somehow wiggled its way over, it <em>probably</em> would not be considered even close to being close to the northeast.</p>
<p>^^ but part of the state is on eastern time :p</p>
<p>the northeast ends for me at PA, but MD could be included. Indiana, not so much.</p>
<p>Olin purely focuses on Engineering, for someone who wasn't clear on that.
I second Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, MIT, Olin, RPI, URochester, Rutgers, and Princeton.</p>
<p>BU and Northeastern's engineering schools are also very good, although the colleges listed above are much bigger powerhouses.</p>
<p>BU has better engineering than we're given credit for.</p>
<p>i don't know about that, but i very much enjoyed your recent BU High School Engineering competition. it was fun. i would go to BU for engineering.</p>
<p>I didnt say one of the best or amazing, I said better than we're given credit for. Most people dont look to BU for Eng.</p>
<p>Why are you so set in staying in one part of the country?</p>
<p>Princeton is the best in Aerospace, followed by Cornell</p>
<p>Cornell is excellent.
Maryland benefits from its proximity and affiliation with NASA.</p>
<p>Cornell, Princeton.</p>
<p>Try doing a search on this site: <a href="http://www.tryengineering.org%5B/url%5D">www.tryengineering.org</a> You can specify the type of engineering and location. It will return only ABET accredited programs in aerospace engineering if you so specify. </p>
<p>Cornell certainly has wonderful engineering programs, but it is not ABET accredited for aerospace engineering. It is, of course, accredited for Mechanical engineering, which is the background of many engineers working in the aerospace industry.</p>
<p>But, since you specified aerospace engineering, you may also want to look at RPI, Clarkson, and Syracuse in NY which do have specific accredited aerospace majors. </p>
<p>The Try Engineering site is also jammed packed with other useful information and resources for students interested in engineering. There is also a very helpful "ask the engineer" section where real engineers answer questions, including those on what to look for in an engineering program. </p>
<p>The Sloan Career Cornerstone website is also another good place for reliable research on engineering programs. Here's the link directly to their page on aerospace engineering, which has a list of all ABET accredited aerospace engineering programs. You can also learn about the differences between different types of engineering to decide if mechanical engineering at Cornell is what you want to do: <a href="http://www.careercornerstone.org/aerospace/aerospace.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.careercornerstone.org/aerospace/aerospace.htm</a>
Good luck.</p>
<p>PSU has a great aerospace.</p>
