Colleges and Universities A-Z Brown University

<p>So I’ve been applying under engineering even though I’m not at all sure that’s what I want to do, but it’s easier to start in engineering and get out than to start on the outside and get in.</p>

<p>However, let’s say, theoretically, that by some miracle, Brown accepts me. Is their engineering any good? Would I be getting as good of an engineering education as the University of Illinois?</p>

<p>engineering at brown is great for people who want to learn engineering and also experience a broader liberal arts environment</p>

<p>brown has the oldest engineering program in the ivy league and the second oldest in the country--it is well-established, and very strong. however, it is small compared to places like cornell so it will not pop up at the top of rank lists. nonetheless--students place into great jobs and grad schools, so this shouldn't be a concern. it's basically a matter of figuring out if it is the right environment for you.</p>
