<p>I'm looking at Wichita State University's AE program and am wondering if anyone knows anything about it. Is it good? Where does it rank? Do people get hired from it?</p>
<p>Also, how is Wichita State University overall? Food, dorms, social life etc? Thanks for any replies. </p>
<p>It’s ABET accredited and has been since 1949. <a href=“http://main.abet.org/aps/AccreditedProgramsDetails.aspx?OrganizationID=427”>http://main.abet.org/aps/AccreditedProgramsDetails.aspx?OrganizationID=427</a> Boeing has a major location in Wichita so I imagine there are good internship options. </p>
<p>That’s what I’m thinking. I hope the academics themselves are good. I hoping someone or a parent of someone who has gone to WSU will relate any experiences there. Many thanks!</p>
<p>Boeing has pulled out of Wichita. I used to work for Boeing in Seattle and would go down to Wichita a few times a year. There were lots of Wichita State Aero grads, and the program seemed to be well respected. </p>
<p>Thanks for the input. I think Cessna has a base there?</p>
<p>Yep, aerospace engineering at Wichita State has a good rep.</p>
<p>you could ask at the Wichita State forum, OP, if you aren’t satisfied with these responses.</p>
<p>Could you link me to that forum? I couldn’t find one on Wichita State, but perhaps I was looking in the wrong place. I am pretty new to CC. (What does OP stand for?) Thanks so much.</p>
<p>They are very well known for their aeronautical research.</p>
<p>Thank you, fractalmstr. I saw that they are like the 2nd most funded for that in the nation on their website. I just hope their undergraduate program is as equally important to them. From a a few reviews I’ve seen, it looks like the AE program always comes up as one of their best, so I’m pretty confident about that. </p>
