@vsmath - The only “negative” depending on your perspective is size. To me, it’s a positive, but I do get that some students prefer a much larger university. The nice part is that it is part of the Claremont Consortium, so it isn’t as small as it might seem at first.

As marvin already stated, Mudd grads don’t have a problem finding jobs. Here is something you might be interested in:

If you scroll to page 8 you will see where (both grad schools and employers) Mudd students end up.

I don’t know the specific opportunities for robotics, but I would not be surprised to learn that many there that share your son’s passion. And I believe this semester the core engineering class (for all sophomores) had an underwater robotics component.
