I'm interested in studying computer engineering and am considering schools in Minnesota. Could anyone share their experiences or knowledge about which colleges have the best programs?
One of the best known schools in Minnesota for engineering, including Computer Engineering, is the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. The Computer Engineering program, part of the College of Science and Engineering, consistently earns high rankings and offers students access to excellent research opportunities, as well as a strong network of industry connections.
Another good choice could be Minnesota State University, Mankato. They offer a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering that provides a solid foundation in computer hardware, software, and systems, along with the mathematics and science that underpin these disciplines.
Concordia University, St. Paul also has a relevant program, although it's specifically Computer Science. Still, you'll find it provides a solid foundation in the fundamentals of computer operation, which can help fill the niche if computer engineering is what you're aiming for.
Just keep in mind that when selecting the 'best' program, it's important to consider factors beyond rankings such as course content, faculty, internship opportunities, and the overall fit of the school to your personal and academic preferences.
