Engineering Program?

<p>I have a friend who moved to Florida in time for her son's senior year of high school. He has been accepted to FIT, USF, UCF, and Penn State. He has heard that the Engineering program at FIT is the best of these schools. Anybody know anything about it?</p>

<p>Never mind! He said Florida Institute of Technology! That's why his mom was complaining about the cost....</p>

<p>FIU does have an engineering program , and I never heard of FIT until recently. How exactly do they determine how good the engineering program is ? People seem to put UF over FIU all the time but if the coursework for the majors is about the same. What makes one college better than the other one?</p>
