Gooing to University of MN TC next year. Hopefully major in chem engineering...

Go to UMD instead, we got a better chemical engineering dept here, not to mention a brand new chemestry building.

Are you kidding me? ChemE at UMN-TC is always ranked top 5 program in the world.

Dept of Chemical Engineering
College of Chemistry
UC Berkeley

It kind of depends on your area of emphasis.

I am going into hardware design, so I've taken classes on computer architectures and hardware design in general. Currently I'm working with a team on a pipelined cpu that can do several vector operations, similar to mmx.

We also have to take some circuits and electromagnetics courses. I'm not sure if they are required, but I've also taken some semiconductor physics classes, and some signal processing classes.

Also, for the most part computer engineers will be programming in assembly for whatever system they are working on, rather than in C++ or some other high level language.
 
Rowan University
Electrical and Computer Engineering major with a concentration in Honors studies. Also, I plan to try and get minors in computer science and physics.
3.444GPA, currently a 2nd semester freshman.
 
Went to Cal State Stanislaus, BA in Physical Education

Going to grad school at University of Kentucky in the Fall, majoring in Sport Leadership (Kinesiology and Health Promotion Department)

GPA: 3.5 cumulative
 
Graduated last may from SUNY Brockport, 3.6 GPA, Major in Mathematics and Secondary Education (7-12) with Middle School extension (5-6).

Needless to say, I am now a financial analyst for a life insurance firm in Tampa, FL.
 
I graduate in two months from Northern Kentucky University... B.A. from the College of Informatics in Public Relations, minor in marketing. Major and minor GPAs are right around 3.8-4.0 (out of 4.0) but my overall GPA is somewhere around a 3.2.
 
Rice University, applied mathematics (BA May 2006).

Currently, it's a tossup between Caltech, UCLA and Columbia for grad school in math or applied math. They're all flying me out to visit, so I'll decide then.

Also, a lot of schools differ in GPA scales, so it might not really help for some to post grades.

Caltech is a great school :thumbsup:

cool
Applied Math is awsome, Caltech, UCLA and Columbia are all fantastic schooos, wherever you go, you will get a great education
 
University of Maryland, College Park (grad Dec 05)
Aerospace Engineering
GPA sucked

Now making good money 🙂 (guess those grades didnt matter)
