Rising Junior from Georgia - Unsure of His Chances [4.0 GPA, environmental science, geophysics]

ABET has only one category for “Geological and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.” Minnesota’s actually is called Geoengineering; but the other two that I mentioned clearly discuss energy and carbon sequestration as areas of emphasis and faculty research. Some programs may indeed be better for this focus area than others; that would be something for the OP to look into further. And I know that the OP hasn’t necessarily decided to pursue an ABET engineering degree at all. But it was mentioned and seems like a good option to keep open.
