<p>I got accepted to these schools for engineering
- Binghamton
- Penn state Erie</p>
<p>and still waiting for 'good' news from</p>
<p>Virginia Tech
RIT
RPI
Northeastern
Carnegie (reach)
NYU (reach)</p>
<p>but first, which of my accepted schools are better in engineering?</p>
<p>it depends on whether youre going to grad school or not</p>
<p>carnegie hands down.</p>
<p>cmu>vt=rpi>rit>nyu>northeast</p>
<p>I thought Penn state was the best of your accepted list, which no one else seems to understand</p>
<p>yea, but it's not a main campus(universtiy park)
o well, ill still have to wait for others..</p>
<p>I have to say RPI = CMU > Virginia Tech > RIT > The others</p>
<p>or actually... CMU is greater than or equal to RPI > VT > RIT > The Rest</p>
<p>Carnegie is actually a better overall school and has a terrific electrical engineering department and one of the world's finest Computer Science schools, but I have to say that overall RPI is a better engineering school. Carnegie also has a nice business school and other departments. I probably would've gone there, but I don't want to be more than a 4 hour drive from my home.</p>
<p>I have friends at RPI, CMU's engineering department is definetly better, with the exception of biomedical engineering, which is a new major anyway. Also if you want to do something like aerospace, then RPI would be the better option. CMU just offers the most lucrative/popular engineering majors...I guess</p>
<p>Carnegie Melon is also "on-the-rise," and supposedly gets great attention from recruiters.</p>
<p>again...it really does matter whether or not you plan on going to grad school. some schools have a more theoretical teaching style, while some are more application based</p>
