2) Olin College: With a slightly larger student body of 360 students this small Massachusetts school has a strong focus on entrepreneurship mixed with engineering. Students do research projects throughout their time in the program. Students are also able to take courses at nearby Babson College. http://www.olin.edu/
Agreed, Great schools. We have alumni at both Webb & Olin. , Let me know if you are interested in connecting with one of our alumni.

#13. RICE UNIVERSITY: HOUSTON, TEXAS
Rice University boasts an engineering program that is very strong overall. The school features only two engineering programs at the undergraduate level which carry through to the doctorate level, and these are Biomedical Engineering and Environmental Engineering. Both programs are ranked more highly than Rice’s overall engineering ranking, which suffers slightly because only two options are offered. This focus, however, is a boon for students seeking high quality programs in either of those engineering fields. The school’s high ROI and reasonable accessibility make it an attractive choice for any student seeking a top-flight biomedical or environmental engineering education.
Rice is our primary school that the DiscoBots collaborate and work closely with college student mentors. I also highly recommend Rice to people !
