<p>Deciding between UCDavis vs UCSB for Mechanical Engineering</p>

<p>Any comments on the pros and cons of one or the other. This is an openended question to gather information, but here are a few items of interest:

  • undergrad research projects & opportunites
  • quality of professors - education, connections to industry etc
  • career services for undergrads / quality of companies that come on campus to recruit undergrads
  • getting into grad school
