@DyrannosaurusRex Of course Penn engineering is weaker in absolute terms than Cornell engineering, but this difference refers mostly to graduate school. At the undergraduate level, the overall quality of the school, the resources per students, class size, career outcomes are rather more important as long as that school has a good department in the field you are interested in (and penn def does have a good engineering school, and in quite a few departments, like bioengineering, robotics, nanotech it is actually top notch). Penn is def more flexible and encourages interdisciplinary study (double majors, double degrees etc).
