AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on selecting an engineering school in Virginia and the East Coast. The individual is applying to Virginia Tech and UVA, with aspirations to also apply to MIT despite recognizing the competitive nature of admissions. They express a desire to explore additional options beyond these schools, specifically looking for reputable engineering programs on the East Coast. Recommendations include Georgia Tech, RPI, RIT, CMU, Penn State, and Cornell, with a note that while U of Michigan is highly rated, the perceived quality of its graduates is questioned. The conversation emphasizes the importance of finding a strong engineering program while considering both in-state and out-of-state options.

Ok so I live in Virginia and want to go to school for engineering, the problem is picking one. I am applying to Virginia Tech and UVA and I should get into those. I am going to apply to MIT just to see if I get in (I have a strong resume but I know it takes a hell of a lot more than that). But I don't just want to constrain myself to those schools, but if I go out of state I want to stay on the east coast. So what are the best engineering schools on the east coast that I might want to check out?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Georgia Tech.
 
What major?
RPI and RIT are good.
CMU,PSU, and maybe BU.
 
Try Cornell.
 
Penn State and U of Mich are rated pretty highly, although I could never tell from their graduates.

Thread 'Help with my plan to get into research about bound states'

Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...
