Dartmouth Engineering | AB Current page from Dartmouth Engineering.
When we visited (several years ago but less than 10), one of the professors we talked to, emphasized an almost liberal arts approach to engineering. The professor was a Cornell trained engineer, and he said Cornell was great as a technical engineering school but he felt Dartmouth provided a better whole student experience. You can see that emphasis on their web page. There is a set of engineering types who will thrive and seek a very focused specialized engineering education. I think others like the science and practical problem solving skill sets of engineering, but they have wider interests.
