Has Michigan State moved its engineering department to Detroit? I thought it was in East Lansing?
One school that I’ve read good things about in terms of having a good hands-on education is at U. of Louisville. As Kentucky’s biggest city, there are lots of internship opportunities if she wants to try and find something during the school year. There’s also some good merit aid options there, too. And as a public school, odds are much better for a lot of your D’s coursework transferring.
