Hi I'm a senior in high school planning on majoring in Aerospace Engineering. Should I go to University of Maryland or Georgia Tech? I want to go to graduate school after, and then work in the space industry. Thanks for your input!

Answer 1 :
Georgia Tech is by far the better choice.
Answer 2 :
The University of Maryland is a better university overall. It ranks higher than Georgia Tech on academic rankings of world universities and it offers more programs. But there are a few things that you should consider: 1.) Location - Which is closer to you? 2.) Tuition - Which is cheaper? 3.) Benefit - Which do you see benefiting you better in the long run? Good luck and please feel free to email me if you have any more questions.
Answer 3 :
Do not take an Aerospace Engineering at the undergrad level. Save it for a Master's after completing an undergrad in Mechanical Engineering or Engineering Physics or Materials Science. Both schools offer degrees in Materials Science Engineering. Georgia Tech gets a "B" rating from the ACTA Education Foundation for its above-average commitment to comprehensive General Education. Maryland—College Park gets a "C". Surprisingly, Georgia Tech gets a Red Light (Do Not Attend) from the book "Choosing the Right College" for the school's oppressively liberal Administration, which regularly tries to marginalize conservative and Christian groups, to the point of being admonished by judges in federal court for stepping on students' rights with bogus "speech codes" and denial of use of school property.
