I am trying to decide which university to go for engineering majors and

finance minor.

I have great interest in engineering but I also want to study many liberal arts

courses to enhance my english and broaden point of view.

Since I am an international student, it will be hard for me to get job in U.S.

but, I really want to get a job in U.S. Does undergraduate major play

significant role in getting job? I think undergraduate student study broadly

many areas and then go to professional school.Which school will be better to

get jobs?

Can one help me outline the pros and cons for each university.

Points to be considered are:

1. Brand name. How will it matter?

2. Jobs and acceptance to grad school

3. Engineering reputation

4. How good the engineering program is…(rankings for Engineering are CMU 7th, WUSTL 46th)

5. And other minor factors (like weather, location etc)
