Other Schools in Oregon: OIT

<p>Does anybody know anything about the Oregon Institute of Technology? The school shows up on US News and World Report's best undergraduate engineering programs. They just started offering a BS in Mechanical Engineering. I haven't been able to get anybody's opinion of the school. Any impressions/perspectives would be appreciated. Thanks!</p>

<p>here in Oregon, it doesn't get much attention. (= zero prestige factor). That's all I can give you.</p>

<p>My Nephew was accepted at OIT and the education their is great, but you are in the middle of nowhere and studying will occupy the bulk of your time, not because the work is that difficult, but more because there is nothing to do outside of class without driving a little ways, mostly to play in the snow. I lived in Klamath Falls in the mid 80's and it is a fairly slow town.</p>
