I wouldn’t say that, unless the OP’s student has a very rare condition. San Luis Obispo has a pretty robust medical community with many specialties and subspecialties represented. Rural Arkansas it is not.
Speaking of Cal Poly, I would look at the Mechatronics concentration in Mechanical Engineering. If you make a venn diagram of EE, ME, and CS, it falls in the intersection of all three. That’s what my son did.
It’s an interesting school, because it’s larger at roughly 20K students, but it feels small. Classes are all small and taught mostly by instructors with terminal degrees, including labs and discussions. My son’s physic series was capped at 42 for lectures and calculus was (I believe) 35.
Expect it to be roughly $200K all in from OOS.
Feel free to PM me if you have questions about the school, community or major.
