<p>triwtt: I graduated from IIT, lived on campus for three years, and my IIT friends graduated from various programs. IIT also has excellent architecture, industrial design, and computer science programs, and sufficient arts/sciences professors to fill general ed requirements. IIT isn’t flashy, and not savvy regarding its college marketing and self-promotion, but it has a strong reputation among Midwest industry and business. (It also has a business school and a law school.) It has the least traditionally-designed campus of American colleges, but don’t necessarily “judge the book by its cover”. Its worth serious consideration and a visit on a open house day.</p>
