The major reason for choosing this college was the cost of program - cheaper in comparison with other schools offering similar program. Secondary factors include - brand value, alumni network, geographic advantage. And the reason I chose Engineering Management is because of my interest in tech and skill in management. Also wanted to break into product management. Overall experience was just about satisfactory. Studying at this university and particularly this course had a lot of cons for a few pros. Would recommend to consider only after thorough research.

This university had a program that isn't offered in many places and they are the best school for it. This college has overall been a good experience. I do feel that this is a business rather than an educational organization. There's lots of cash grab situations and a lot of waste of money but overall it gets me a job.

  • Dislikes:
  • Sometimes, I feel the course is too fast and rigorous. I need more time to understand and finds it difficult to keep up with speed. To conclude, the rigidity and difficulity of the course structure is the key thing which I dislike. There is no other thing which I dislike about my University. The aenvironment, supply of resources, office supplies everything you need is provided.

I am living it and loving it. It is a blend of all exciting and stressful at the same time.

My college experience has been amazing and very smooth. You have guidance at each step. Joining the university community was instant once you accept the admission. Everyone in the university is there to help you if you get stuck somewhere. You just have to focus on your studies and goals and everything else will work accordingly.

  • Dislikes:
  • I think the location of the university a bit of a negative. Its right in between nowhere. Sometimes can be difficult for students to get better opportunities. Having a college in big cities is a big plus because they get better opportunities

I think it was a good experience. Honestly its the student that it depends on how they work through the 2 years of college life. Being focused is very necessary. I talked to professors and tried to get some small projects under them, so as to better understand their subject and understand if I would like to work in that field or not. Starting early is good. No one here is going to push you to study.

Penn State University is well known as a university that provides high-quality education, and its college of engineering is distinguished as a top engineering education across the country. Additionally, Penn State is local to my home here in Central Pennsylvania, so it was moreover convenient to attend here. A combination of top class education and the Penn State close location led me to attend here.

Liked the party scene and the school isn't absurdly expensive plus I liked how big it is and it's close to home somewhat. It's known to have a great opportunity for careers after graduation as well because the curriculum is hard.
