- Although I might be somewhat partial to this school, I do think rather highly
- of many of the engineering programs... Aerospace & electrical in particular
- have _many_opportunities at Utah State University, as we are affiliated with USAF and NASA
- on many design projects such as CIRRIS, the Tethered satellite experiment
- (recent), and many other programs, a majority of which were developed here...
- In fact, USU has had more experiments aboard the Shuttle than any other
- University! On campus, we also have the Space Dynamics Lab which is
- responsible for IR sensor design, and hybrid rocket motor designs with help
- from the local Thiokol corporation (maker of the Shuttle's SRB's) Besides,
- tuition is low! :-) Any questions, E-mail me and I'll try to help.
-
- Good luck!
