Colleges for Engineering

Engineering is a field that encompasses many specifications including, but not limited to, aerospace engineering, computer engineering, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering and nuclear engineering. Engineering itself is the art, profession and application of economic, social and material factors to design various machines, systems and structures. A bachelor in engineering degree is obtained from many four-year universities. Choosing the right engineering school starts your path to a rewarding career.
  1. Harvey Mudd College

    • The engineering program at Harvey Mudd focuses on preparing students for engineering with the analysis, synthesis and practice of engineering. The program does not offer other engineering majors besides the broad scope, which it believes encompasses enough knowledge to enter any field with provided electives. Class size is anywhere from 20 to 80 students. As of 2010, the costs for tuition and fees is $43,390.

    California Institute of Technology

    • California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has an entire engineering and applied science division that has various engineering departments within it including aerospace, applied physics and materials, bioengineering, computing and mathematical, electrical, environmental and mechanical and civil engineering to allow you to have the specific program designation you desire. It offers both four-year undergraduate and graduate degrees. It is a smaller school with less than 1,000 undergraduate students enrolled in the entire campus as of 2009. The yearly tuition of Caltech, as of the 2010 to 2011 school year, is $34,989.

    Massachusetts Institute of Technology

    • The Massachusetts Institute of Technology Engineering School was founded in 1861 and 60 percent of the students that attend MIT are in the school of engineering. There are eight individual departments in the school of engineering including aeronautics, biology, chemical, civil and environmental, electrical, computer science, mechanical and nuclear science and engineering. It has 4,700 students as of the 2009 to 2010 school year. The cost to attend MIT in the 2010 to 2011 school year is $39,212.

    Colorado School of Mines

    • The division of engineering at the Colorado School of Mines has more than 1,100 undergraduate students focusing on civil, electrical, environmental and mechanical engineering resulting a bachelor of science degree. The average GPA of students admitted is 3.8. The annual tuition for Colorado residents is $11,550 and out-of-state residents is $25,890 as of 2011.

    Polytechnic Institute of New York University

    • The engineering department at NYU-Poly offers bachelor of science degrees in chemical, biomolecular, civil, electrical and mechanical engineering. The number of students in the entire campus is 1,768, resulting in a student-to-faculty ratio of 13 to 1. The annual tuition costs were $31,538 in the 2008 to 2009 school year.
