UGA - New Engineering program

<p>Your declared major won’t impact your admissions decision. Ga Tech definitely has the more established engineering program and has more majors to offer. Currently UGA offers engineering degrees through the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and the Faculty of Engineering.</p>

<p>Both programs are located in Driftmeir and even though they have 2 separate websites they seem to be all together in Driftmeir. The Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering offers Agricultural and Biological engineering degrees. The Agricultural major has elements of mechanical, electrical and civil engineering. </p>

<p>The Faculty of Engineering offers degrees in Biochemical, Computer Systems, and Environmental Engineering.</p>

<p>According to an article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, UGA will start the civil engineering program in fall of 2012 and the mechanical and electrical programs in fall 2013.</p>

<p>I recommend visiting UGA and meeting with the engineering faculty. My daughter and I found them very accessible and helpful. Their websites have a lot of information about the degrees and the courses required for each degrees.</p>
