The school has had an ambivalent relationship with applied sciences through its history. They considered closing the engineering departments in the early 90's when I was a student. I am glad to see the school investing in this area, even if it less out of intrinsic interest and more out of market demand and perceiving it as a growth area.

It is the same as NYU did in 70s. But now NYU merge NYU-Poly as its school of engineering.
I am always amazed at what criteria are used by school administrators to decide which departments to fund. It is very surprised to me as a foreigner born that U.S. doesn't need engineers from Ivy League....

#9It's worth mentioning that this is still bare minimum even compared to other Ivy League colleges. Harvard plans to expand their faculty by 12 members with Balmer's recent grant and Cornell is in the process of adding faculty for their new campus in New York City (Cornell Tech - which is basically a startup incubator).

That's because the Ivy League engineers have come out of Germany, China, India, and ostensibly out of Russia and other ex-soviet block members.
