    Alternatively, motors lab for the EEs, yeah, in person, unless you have a 25 HP motor and 480 VAC three-phase in your garage (like scottie).

    I'd argue 80% of an eng'g degree can be done online; the rest can be done in summer residencies (2-4 weeks twice). And in summer you might get more direct attention from faculty.
    I did a mostly online engineering degree at UND and cant recommend against it strongly enough. A person learns as much from their classmates as they do from the professors.

    Why the hell did you go to UND for *checks notes* engineering?

    It was 2010 and I had a great college job. I considered Wisconsin, Michigan and Washington. NDSU doesn't have a Chemical Engineering program

    This is an unfortunate mistake (one of many in ND higher ed). All the relevant research is being done at NDSU and the state would be much better served if the program was there too

    Agreed, most of the programs graduates go on to work in Ag. It is the best individual department at UND though

    Disturbing trend we've noticed the last couple months. Our kids are juniors in high school so they are getting information packets from universities. They get stuff from UND at least once a week, sometimes more. They have gotten multiple items from a wide range of of universities from all over...even couple Ivy league schools. They have gotten 1 thing from NDSU. One. Both kids still have NDSU as their #1 pick so far, but that interest is starting to wane for them. Even my wife and I who want nothing to do with UND admit that UND is killing it as far as getting their name out there, and NDSU is doing next to nothing. Really looks like one university knows what they are doing and one can't get out of its own way. Really sad.

    Can confirm similar situation in Moorhead.. NDSU spams kids with less junk mail. Not sure if that is a regional thing? In that schools market more aggressively with addresses outside of the home community? Otherwise, yes, NDSU doesn't market as aggressively by mail.

    All 3 of my kids were/are being blasted by snail mail and social media stuff from NDSU. NDSU wants my kids to enroll there. NDSU wants your kids to go to UND.

    I've heard this for a number of years. Apparently, our recruiting folks and ML went to the same trainings....
