<p>hey guys! i'm applying to Lehigh for engineering (prob mechanical)</p>
<p>any ideas about these programs??
-Integrated Business and Engineering (IBE)
-Integrated Degree in Engineering, Arts & Sciences (IDEAS) </p>
<p>advantages/disadvantages</p>
<p>any input is much appreciated!</p>
<p>I attended a special program there and I talked to one of the grad students about the IBE program. He personally didn’t like it because it is 5 years and you come out with a split degree (engineering and business) when if you were to just go to school for four years and then go to grad school you could get two seperate degrees, which is more powerful than one split degree. So for an extra year (making it 6 years) you could potentially have two seperate degrees instead of one.</p>
