<p>Arkansas Tech in Russellville, AR is an interesting one. I have traveled a lot around the state of Arkansas but it is a state that not a lot of people have been to. Nice place to go fishing and camping :)</p>

<p>The name of this school is a bit misleading, it is not an institute of technology, it is more of a regular university that offers only 2 Engineering majors: ME and EE.</p>

<p>It is a school that lacks any type of national reputation but it definitely does well regionally. </p>

<p>Surprisingly, there are quite a few schools with Colleges of Engineering in AR, not too bad for a state that is mostly rural: </p>

<p>University of Arkansas(Main Campus in Fayetteville), University of Arkansas-Little Rock, Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, Harding University in Searcy and University of Arkansas-Fort Smith.</p>

<p>How does your DS like Olin? It’s a school we hear very little about.</p>

<p>@Gator88NE - DS really likes Olin. But it’s a niche fit… for most peopleit is too teeny/limited (under 350 students total), and very competitive admissions (10% accepted). . However the project oriented approach he enjoys can be found at other schools too. There is an Olin thread in Colleges section if you want to learn more. </p>

<p>@LeftWinger‌ I’ll be attending Michigan Tech this fall and they’re definitely out there, but good. You can’t get much more isolated than the UP.</p>
