<p>Looks like not much activity in the OU thread, but I would like to learn more about the undergraduate Chemical Engineering program at OU? </p>

<p>I wonder how studying ChemE at OU would compare to privates like Rice or Vanderbilt? </p>

<p>I know OU's program doesn't get much attention (like UT-Austin, Wisc., ULCU, and Univ. of MN-Twin Cities) so do you have the chance of graduating with a similar good undergraduate engineering education from OU or do the rankings really tell us something? </p>

<p>Do the professors and TA's speak good english and is help available when needed? </p>

<p>Do the students collaborate on assignments or tend to do their own thing?</p>

<p>Does the ChE program seem stable or on the up vs. going down hill?</p>

<p>What is the scoop from those who may have an inside view...</p>

<p>Yeah there isn't very much activity on this for OU. But I was just browsing around and was hoping I can give you some advice in terms of a career. Just because the school is not well-renowned compared to UT-Austin, Minn, or Wisconsin doesn't eliminate your chance of getting a great career. It's all about your ability to network. I've had friends that went to small schools but had a chance to work for the big companies through networking. But just remember, having good grades says a lot especially for undergrad. It shows that you are passionate about your major.</p>

<p>The engineering department is not so great out here. I would go somewhere else.</p>
