<p>I can vouch for that, at least at my college. I’m doing robotics research and am practically designing and building one of the robot projects by myself. The dept. chair is supervising me, but as far as physically building and designing; it’s entirely me.</p>
<p>Also, because it is an LAC and few students here have engineering experience, I think it made it a lot easier to get accepted into the program versus at a large engineering university where I’d be competing more.</p>
