ME & AE: List the value of these schools

Transfer Students
1

<p>These are the schools to which I am applying as a junior transfer:</p>

<p>Cal Poly SLO
Cal Poly Pomona
San Jose State
UC Davis
UC Santa Barbara
UC Merced
UC Irvine
UC Berkeley
Boise State
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University: Prescott, AZ campus</p>

<p>I am planning on working as a propulsion engineer in the aerospace industry, so I have applied as a mechanical engineering major to all of these schools. UC Davis and UC Irvine offer a program to double-major in Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering since they largely overlap, and Embry-Riddle offers a propulsion concentration for Mechanical Engineering. LIST these schools in order of best-to-worst reputation/quality/hiring rates.</p>

<p>I seriously doubt that Merced has any reputation in the industry since its engineering program is so new</p>

<p>Yeah I’m aware that Merced is new. I just applied there as a backup UC because the application fee was waived.</p>
