LACs that offer engineering?

<p>Does anybody know where I can find a list of liberal arts colleges (or small universities) that offer engineering? Thanks.</p>

<p>Harvey Mudd College!</p>

<p>I do not know about engineering, but would the ABET website help?</p>

<p>Swarthmore</p>

<p>there are 3:2 programs at numerous schools also.</p>

<p>Lafayette is a great small lac that has a fine engineering program.</p>

<p>I just checked. You can go to the abet website and go to whatever discipline you want ie: biochemical, ceramic etc. and the schools that offer it will come up, so it should include the LACs too. You can just rule outthe larger universities.</p>

<p>The 3:2 programs are offered many places but from I've heard tend not to be very successful. </p>

<p>After 3 years at a wonderful LAC many students realize they can spend 1 more year in a familiar place with all of their friends and get a degree. Or they can depart for some other school they've never been and spend 2 more years, plus there's the struggle of learning the new system, profs, making new friends, etc. </p>

<p>You <em>could</em> do it, but I think few people who start a 3:2 actually complete it.</p>

<p>I second the vote for Lafayette. They also offer some merit scholarships.</p>

<p>Union College
Schenectady, NY</p>

<p>Yale has engineering.</p>

<p>Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut.</p>

<p>University of Hartford has a great engineering program...and it's a small university.</p>

<p>another recent LAC-engineering thread FYI:

<p>some good discussion on various schools & programs, as well as a link to ABET, an important consideration IMO to selecting a program.</p>

<p>Thanks everybody. I'll go through the list on US News. My subscription is just about set to expire anyway, so I'll quick print it out. In the early stages for son #2. Somehow, it feels a lot less frantic though.</p>

<p>Look also at Bucknell & Lehigh. Also Colgate has a co-op engineering program with Columbia.</p>

<p>Money will be an issue for this child, so from the list I need to look at each school for price/scholarship info. This son will probably qualify for neither financial aid nor, most likely, substantial merit money in an engineering program. So this might be a little tricky...</p>

<p>york has a pretty good engineering program as well... and they're not expensive. i'm pretty sure that all of their kids have to do a full year of co-op before graduating.</p>

<p>they just competed in a competition and did really well <a href="http://www.ycp.edu/news/2828_5432.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ycp.edu/news/2828_5432.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Doesn't help Weenie with a son, but Smith has engineering and seems to be spreading some merit money into attracting candidates.</p>

<p>Hi weenie, just curious why you are looking for a LAC w engineering...I do not mean this to be a negative question, I'm just curious. My S visited one LAC to investigate their 3/2 program and found that attending a larger university would enable him to dive into EE much quicker....he realized that he did not want to wait 3 years to get seriously into his major.</p>
