Tags: I got into UT Austin's CAP program, which school is best for engineering?
January 5th, 2009
Chemical Engineering most likely.
which should i go to, i can chose any of the campuses, but i think i'd perfer to go to UT San Antonio or UT Arlington, but im willing to go to whichever school has the best program.
opinions/advice?
I don't think any of the UT CAP schools are known for engineering. The difference between UTA and UTSA for lower division engineering classes is most likely minute at best. Honestly, it doesn't matter which college you go to because only 2 or 3 of the 10 classes you take will be engineering classes.
If I were you, I'd go to whichever school is cheapest.
Personally, I used to go to UTA and I never really liked it. UTSA is supposed to have the least percentage of commuters out of all the UT satelite schools, so as a result, there's more to do on campus. Also, the UTA campus isn't exactly in the nicest area, meanwhile UTSA is in one of the nicer areas of San Antonio.

esp. in the west?
Thanks a lot!!
UCLA, they've got one of the best environmental engineering schools. I'd go there over any other school. I went there a for environmental engineering and it was a great experience. Got a job with local environmental agency right after I graduated. Good Luck.
What is the best engineering undergrad school in the US?

You must show proof!
This is a trick question, in which you will get an answer loaded with bias… As with any discipline, and any level of school, you get out what you put into it. Unless you are going for prestige (MIT, Cal Tech, Purdue, etc…), any school that has degrees up to PHD in your desired discipline will provide you with the necessary education to excel.
US News and World Report is a very popular source, but for Engineering, I think they don't really do their research and continue to overlook some very good schools. I would look at the ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) to see which schools are accredited. When I was in college (early-mid 90's), there were multiple levels of accreditation…three schools of which were in the highest level. MIT, Cal Tech, and New Mexico State University.
Also, another way to find out what resources a school has is to see how much research money the program earns.
Edit:
I agree with the two posters below me, and accreditation is important, because there are many companies who won't hire grads from non-accredited schools… Just something to remember. However, most 4-year engineering schools are accredited, so you shouldn't worry too much.
If I were you, just go to the University of ~~~ or ~~~ State University in your state. Most of them will prepare you well and will cost much less for you or your parents than going somewhere out of state or somewhere private.
