<p>I am a senior in high school trying to decide wether or not i should go to Purdue. My question is how are the majors outside of engineering. Even though I was accepted to Purdue engineering if i feel like i want to switch majors while i was there i want to know if i would still get a good education in other colleges.</p>
<p>Majors outside of engineering at Purdue are mediocre, go to an all rounded university with a stellar engineering schools, schools like Cornell, Cal, Michigan, and maybe even Illinois come to mind. Unless you are crazy enough to get into stanford that is</p>
<p>So computer science at Purdue is mediocre? Might want to rethink that comment.</p>
<p>OP said “how ARE THE MAJORS outside of engineering” and the intent for the question is if he “feel like he wants to switch majors”. It is safe to assume OP means all other majors as a whole. Nice try.</p>
<p>You said majors outside of engineering were mediocre. Should I not assume that you mean all majors outside of Engineering are bad? If not then you might want to be clearer instead of generalizing. CS falls outside of Engineering and CS at Purdue is one of the top 15 in the country if I’m correct so I would assume that it is a major that is NOT mediocre. I’m not answering his question. I am correcting your answer.</p>
<p>well thanks for correcting my “answer”. I am changing my statement to “Majors outside of engineering at Purdue are mediocre IN GENERAL, with SEVERAL EXCEPTIONS, therefore OP should go to an all rounded university with a stellar engineering schools, schools like Cornell, Cal, Michigan, and maybe even Illinois come to mind. Unless you are crazy enough to get into stanford that is”</p>
<p>THANK YOU. On a side note, CS does not necessarily fall outside of engineering. At Michigan, CS is part of Engineering.</p>
<p>Are we talking about Michigan? No we are not. And I do realize that CS does fall into Engineering at some schools (NCState for one). If you had said several exceptions then it would have been fine. Its just making generalizations that will provide an untrue picture of Purdue. I’m going to stop now though because we are just taking up thread space with a pointless and trivial argument.</p>
