Aerospace vs Mechanical Engineering

<p>RIZKY-
My son is at Buffalo (since you mentioned that school). He’s a dual/double major: Aerospace AND Mechanical Engineering. He will graduate this May (on time with almost twice as many credits as you need to graduate due to AP credits accepted) with a BS in both majors!</p>

<p>The engineering dept at UB is fantastic. Son has had great experiences. Great advising. Son attended the Fall Job Fair and obtained summer internships between Soph and Junior years and between Jr and Sr years. (Different places each summer.) He also did paid research on campus with the graduate school! He already has 2 job offers upon graduation. (His girlfriend also had two summer engineering internships, and has a job offer as well.)</p>

<p>Son was accepted to 15 of 15 schools and after narrowing them down, he felt that UB was the smartest option for him (and this is from a kid who would not have to take out loans at any school!) He was amazed at what he saw in the labs and what was going on at UB. UB is so great for the sciences… and they have so many. New computer science/engineering building oped as well. </p>

<p>All I can say is we have been very happy with UB. No regrets on sons or our part. (this from educated professional parents with other son attending/graduating a private school). </p>

<p>Feel free to post specific questions if you have them. You can also post on the SUNY BUffalo thread on this site for more input from parents and students.</p>
