Hey all, I'm looking to major in aerospace engineering (mechanical where AE is unavailable). I am trying to focus my college list. Right now, naturally, I'm considering the top engineering schools.
Here's the thing: I'm a liberal arts kinda girl at heart. I'm very good at writing, involved in yearbook and mock trial, etc. I love science and engineering, but I definitely hold an appreciation (and natural affinity) for the humanities and all that stuff. You know.
What I'm looking for is a school that can give me a top-tier engineering degree as well as a liberal arts education, to some extent. I'm not looking for extremes; for example, I'm not interested in applying to Olin, simply because I feel like I'll be a little claustrophobic there. Am I making any sense?
Here's my list so far. Not all of these schools fit the criteria I talked about, but I'd like feedback. I obviously need some help. I've only just begun to consider what I've outlined above, so I'm not really sure about anything right now.
Stanford
Yale
Princeton
Caltech
UPenn
Rice
UC Berkeley
UCLA
UC San Diego
Carnegie Mellon
Georgia Tech
Cal Poly SLO
UC Davis
Purdue
Thanks for reading.
