Lehigh vs Tufts Engineering

<p>How do these two schools compare in engineering? Which is more widely known, which is stronger, etc.? Thx for your help!</p>

<p>Hey hey... I live down the street from Lehigh! (and I'm going to Tufts! hehe). In my surrounding area Lehigh is highly regarded, and no one has heard of Tufts... which stinks for me. Lehigh is AMAZING for engineering... like that is their specialty. In general, I think that Tufts has a better nationwide reputation as an overall institution, but in the engineering field I think that Lehigh is better recognized and respected because they specialize in engineering.</p>

<p>Agreed. But I do think that you will get a broader education at Tufts, but the course selection will not be as nice as that as Lehigh's. It's your decision to make, but you can't go wrong with either. Good luck!</p>

<p>Agreed with everything said here.</p>

<p>Lehigh is lovely and rural/suburban; Tufts is very much suburban/urban. It's also larger (right?) and doesn't quite have the party atmosphere of Lehigh. IMO, you're not going to go wrong with either one, so consider environment.</p>
