BU vs. a whole bunch

<p>amherst, bu, stonybrook, university of rhode island, north eastern, wpi. Which would be the choice for better engineering.</p>

<p>Honestly, Northeastern because of their co-op program. You can get a very good engineering education at BU, though, and the department has its own Career Development Office for lots of help constructing resumes, networking, and finding jobs. That said, BU’s co-op is not very much alike Northeastern, but it does exist and is a viable option for those interested. There are also a lot of research opportunities available in the Engineering department though, even for freshmen. </p>

<p>That being said, if finances will be an issue, UMass Amherst is significantly cheaper, especially if you are in-state.</p>

<p>like the person above said, Northeastern has an amazing co-op program so that would be an ideal choice. however, if you’re planning on majoring specifically in biomedical engineering, then I would choose BU because BU has one of the best biomedical engineering programs in the country (top 3 they say)</p>

<p>If you are sure about engineering I would say WPI. But if you even have the slightest doubt go to BU because you’ll have more flexibility when it comes to switching majors.</p>

<p>Northeastern because of the co-op like someone else said.</p>

<p>I have a friend who is currently attending Northeastern and their engineering program is amazing. Plus the Co-op will help a lot in the future with jobs.</p>
