<p>hey,</p>
<p>I'm a junior in mechanical engineering and conducting researches electrical controls (with lots of sensors), vehicle dynamics, and vibrations. And I was looking for a graduate school for this kind of topic. To be honest, I cannot specify any further since I want to open my opportunities for new fields.</p>
<p>As you can see, I'm not going to apply for grad school until I become a senior. However, I just wanted to know where I should be shooting for. Of course big names should be great, but I'm mostly looking for a school that I can enjoy my researches. So far, Penn State's ARL is one on my list since those defense-related researches have been my primary focus. I will probably want to go for Ph.D if I enter grad school. </p>
<p>My advisor gave me too general thoughts.. So, if anyone can give me some idea for it, I would appreciate it. Thanks!</p>
