[QUOTE=artcarney_agr;467145]I don't think the University of Phoenix counts........[/QUOTE]
Never said it did. My Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Associate Degree in Electrical Engineering and Associate Degree in Business Management none say University of Phoenix and none were obtained on-line. Back in 1986 I don't even think there was on-line colleges giving degrees away.
[QUOTE=bplgocards;467144]I went to UK and UofL to study engineering. In all honesty, UofL is miles ahead of UK.[/QUOTE]
What lack of Brainpower keep you from finishing at UK or maybe it is TOO much brainpower that you were smarter than the program? I don't know what form of engineering you studied but moving from a school ranked 73, Kentucky, to one ranked 117, Louisville, in Electrical Engineering, no way means U of L is miles ahead of UK. Just another example of Louisville fan SPEWAGE not supported by facts. The school that I attended and graduated from happens to be #25 on the list, right between Cornell and Virginia Polytec. You keep beating Southern Illinois University of Carbondale at #117, and some day you will be almost as good as Cornell in Electrical Engineering Academics

So....where did they come from? You hiding something? :)
Keep them coming boys. When you start bringing facts to the debate you may just shut me up.

Ohio State University Class of 1989

Rankings mean very little in the grand scheme of things....
I went to Louisville over UK for the simple fact that UK does not offer an accredited Master's program in Civil Engineering.....just a bachelor's degree......I believe the same thing applies to Electrical Engineering. Having that little extra document gets you ahead of UK grads pretty easily. :)

Master degree?
[QUOTE=artcarney_agr;467158]Master degree?[/QUOTE]
If you are asking if I have a Master's, the answer is NO. Grew up in Winchester KY, went to school at OSU on a partial scholarship, paid the rest myself with loans. Worked full time all thru school, got married 3 months after I started shool and had my first kid. Earned my ASEE, BSEE and ASBM in 4 years total and was offered a job 2 months before I graduated back in Lexington as the Lead Technician for a company that did work for IBM before it became Lexmark and the rest is history. I will say that the piece of paper on the wall pretty much says you started something and accomplished that goal. I was only in the Engineering aspect of it for a couple of years then more and more on the management side. Probably wish I had earned an Industrial Engineering degree instead because I ended up learning more about that than I did in school. Best training I ever go was that my company was picked for a co-op program in 1990 with Toyota and University of Kentucky. For 8 months, I spent 1 day a week in either Toyota or UK with Engineers from Toyota and Professors from UK going over real world environment issues. Pretty cool to see what seasoned professionals with way more experience than me at 23 years old did to solve problems in the business world.
Ohio State,,I wouldn't have wanted to tell anyone also....

My thoughts exactly! :)
I co oped full time in an industrial plant in Louisville. It's mandatory to get a degree from UofL, unlike UK. I too study electrical engineering BTW. Ranking don't mean anything. Tell me why Louisville is the ONLY school, ONLY IN THE USA, to have accreited bachelor and master degree engineering programs?

For a year btw. Also there was a reason UofL would not accept and of my math/science/engineering credits from UK when I transfered, they are a joke.
I went to the great St. X high school in Louisville and took calculating as a junior and passed theAP test as a senior with the highest possible score. UK's math curriculum was weaker them the math I took as a sophomore in high school. Fact.
