<p>Although they might be a little different since you want to do EE
I do have to say that Rice’s EE is very much an interdisciplinary program because of the free electives they want you take. So you can take classes outside of engineering.
Rice is small, so you will have smaller sized classes. This allows better collaboration between students and with the faculty. Also the faculty will know you better so when you need him/her, they know you by name and probably can help you better. Rice has a small grad school population. This translates to more of an undergrad focus by the faculty. They are more dedicated to teaching you than advising their grad students.
Also you are in Houston, which is a city with a vast number of internship program. And they LOVE Rice students.</p>
