Hi, My name is Bhargav Akula, a current senior from Plano East Senior High. I am currently starting my college applications and was going to apply as a Chemical Engineering major. I just wanted to know if there were any colleges that you would advise that I apply to. Thanks!
That you can afford and get into…need some more info then.
I know two seniors who are going to Texas Tech for Chem E and are excited to be attending a good program at a reasonable price.
What are your stats? Rank? Obviously you are already finishing with the apply Texas schools. What is your budget?
The conventional wisdom on CC seems to be that as long as an engineering program is ABET-certified, a lot depends on your qualifications, budget, and personal preferences. A ChemE degree from many such programs should open up decent job prospects. But UT-Austin should be great, if you can get in and afford it. If you qualify for a lot of need-based aid and your stats are very high, check out Rice.
(By the way, it’s usually a good practice to avoid sharing personal information such as your real name and where you go to HS. It’s enough just to indicate your state. )
Your request needs to be defined more. Lots of great programs but what are you looking for in a college? Financial? Ranking? Past two years it’s all about chemical eng application s in our household both my sons applied to chemical/ petroleum
