<p>Some college supplemental essays (especially engineering schools) ask applicants to describe any research projects undertaken. Does EE count as a research project?</p>
<p>If it’s an engineering type question, I am guessing they are referring to research in the sense of scientific research projects. If you did an experimental EE, I would say it definitely counts.</p>
<p>It’s a research question in whichever subject you write it in…It’s something completely original that has no real guidelines as to what you can and can’t do. </p>
