<p>the hi-tech companies look for people from ABET programs for engineering, and expect a degree in a particular field (ME, EE, etc). So I don’t think the generalist programs are that great for jobs prospects in actual engineering.</p>
<p>As for 3-2 programs, they don’t seem to work. After 3 years at a school a kid just needs 1 more for a degree. Or, they can leave the familiar surroundings and friends to spend 2 years in an unfamiliar environment. From what I’ve heard, most kids elect to stay.</p>
