Any thoughts on U of Arizona Engineering?

Matt, looking at the internship/recruitment offerings is definitely the way to go. I’d be interested to hear what you come up with. Son actually got contacted from one of his applications from an Arizona based company. He had already taken another job, so he politely informed them he was no longer available, but to please consider him in the future. The company did not offer relocation and they wanted to make sure he was aware of this before they even offered him an interview. It was either in the Tempe or Mesa area, so I don’t know which one of those is served by U of A or ASU. But the Arizona area is a good place for engineering, lots of internships posted for major companies there, so I would see which school offers more emphasis on the course of study you’re interested in, ie, aerospace, biomedical, if you want to specialize even further than general electrical or mechanical. BTW, I do know kids from Louisiana that have gone to ASU, because they offered a nice NMF package when they graduated. Thank you for opening my eyes to U of A. I will alert son to look into them for grad school as well. Good luck to you and keep us posted!
