Does anyone have any thoughts about the engineering program at these two schools. My son will probably study Mechanical engineering. We just went to admitted students day at Case and were very impressed. We will go to the same program at U of R tomorrow. It seems like both are strong research institutions with Case having some more strength in engineering applications and U of R being stronger with theory. Both are around the same size, Case is more urban with U of R a traditional campus. Financially Case would be a bit cheaper but we can swing both. Any thoughts?
thanks…another month to decide!
