Lehigh vs UIUC

<p>I was just at Lehigh and like a dope, I can’t recall how they use TAs. They do pride themselves in the fact that their faculty are focused on undergraduates.</p>

<p>I can say though that the rest of the small engineering programs that we visited, WPI, Olin, Bucknell and Lafayette all use professors for lectures, discussions and labs. Grad students do not teach. The reason to select a smaller program is just that. </p>

<p>I suspect Lehigh isn’t much different. That can be verified with a simple call to the ME department. You’ll likely get Barbara. She’s VERY helpful and friendly</p>

<p>BTW, I did visit the aerospace lab and they’re doing some pretty cool stuff, undergrads included. Below is a link to the Google Lunar X project they are working on with students at Penn State.</p>
