Good solid grad department. However, as with many other depts, some profs would just assume keep you here for life.

Chemistry

UT has a great mechanical engineering grad. school as evident by its top 10 ranking (which will move up in the coming years). They fund better than any school I was accepted to including Michigan, Stanford, and Duke. At these other schools, I was given enough just to live, but here at UT I actually have some spending money. Additionally, the school is more catered to grad. students then to undergraduate students and it isn't that competitive despite being prestigious and having well-known faculty (my advisor is from CAL-Berkeley). My research project is incredible and much more interesting then the projects available at the other institutions I was accepted to. The best thing about UT is that it is in the heart of Austin. Grad students are all 21 (so we can drink) so UT is the #1 social school in the country in my opinion. The nightlife is ridiculously unbelievable. If you're not careful, it would be easy to flunk out of grad school. The girls in Austin are the hottest in the nation, without question (this should convince you alone that should come here if your male). If you come to grad. school as a single person like most are (if not married), this is the school to go to because there are so many places here to meet people.
