Hello everyone,
I'm considering transferring from UCF (double major in Aerospace Engineering and Electrical Engineering) to FIU (double major in Physics and Electrical Engineering). The transfer would be due to personal reasons, not anything academic-related. The change from AE to physics is because, the way credits transfer, it would set me way back to transfer into FIU's Mechanical Engineering: Aerospace Track program, compared to transferring into Physics. Since I've always wanted to study physics and originally had it my a major, this really isn't a big deal to me. I still don't know exactly what I want to do in graduate school and after.
I was wondering if anybody has personal experience with both of these schools and could compare their engineering departments, or tell me about FIU's physics department?
I don't want to transfer if it is going to limit my grad school/career options, but as far as I understand it, the effort you put into undergrad and your research activities are much more important than what school you actually went to (please correct me if I am mistaken).
Thanks for your help.
