Good morning, When is the family bbq? My son doesn't know and although I asked him to find out...crickets. Just trying to make sure I have that date available. Thx!

So frustrated that the Fafsa award package still isn't out. My son leaves for Kelly Mine Camp 2 weeks from today! They keep extending when it will be available....I have no idea how much school is going to cost me🤦‍♀️

Hello Everyone I have a room in a house available for rent. Fairly low cost ($266.67 +Utilities) has washer and dryer and a full kitchen it's not super close to campus but is in town and is a short drive or fairly reasonable bike to campus. If you are interested let me know and we can get in touch.

My son isassigned to the "B" side of the room (even room number). Did he get the smaller side 😕? We could not tour Torres Hall.

Anyone in Earth Science department?

Hi!! I’m a girl & planning to go to NMT next year to get a degree in petroleum & natural gas. I’m tied between that & population health at UNM, so I just wanted to come on here & see if tech is a good school to go to, especially for that field. Any advise is greatly appreciated:)

Hi there! Anyone either going or is a recent graduate at NMT? My son was placed in Torres Hall. How is the social life in that building and is it decent (I know it's a small campus and town)? Any advice regarding the college for an upcoming freshman? He starts in August and going for electrical engineering.

Hello,

I m moving to Rio Rancho and there is no any university near so that I can pursue MS or is there?! Let me know if there is.

So given that I want to attend NMT but online learning. Anyone with masters online learning experience?

Also what is the GPA requirement to get into ME masters program at NMT?

Hello, I'm looking to major in Mechanical Engineering and now I'm trying to find a "good" college. I have enough money saved to attend NMT. The other schools that I'm considering my parents will need to take loans to help pay which is about $40K.

Hello, looking for comments about Desert Willow Apartments. Can anyone share comments about these apartments please.

Thank you

Received admission offer to NMT math ms program. Unfortunately i wasnt offered TAship in the first round of offers. Won’t be able to fund my graduate studies without TAship. How likely is it that I’ll be offered funding and TAship some time later?

Hey everyone,

I just submitted my transcripts today and I wanted some opinions on NMT.

I am from Los Angeles, California and I know Socorro is incredibly small. I do have a car though, so I can drive to Albuquerque.

I will be majoring in electrical engineering, though I will probably switch to mechanical if I'm accepted.

I'm wondering if you think I will fit in. I am definitely a social person, and I like sports (football and basketball). I dirt bike, snowboard, camp, etc. I also want to get into hunting if I go here.

I definitely do like parties, and I heard there really isn't a lot of them here. I was really drawn to this school because of the ERMC as well as it's connections to national labs in New Mexico.

Other schools I applied to are CU Boulder, UCF, UTK, Auburn, Oregon State, and NCSU.

Last question. Are there any known basketball courts in Socorro?

Hey everyone,

Just applied here last night as a transfer for EE. I read today that last year they were trying to implement some segregation by race, gender and major.

Is this true? I don’t think I will go here if that’s the case.

Thank you!

Hello, I'm considering majoring in Electrical Engineering. Can anyone share comments on the Electrical Engineering program and professors? I'm also considering Computer Science.

Thank you

Hello, quick question, what software is used in MENG 421 Finite Element Analysis ? Is it Matlab, Solid Works, Abaqus, or Ansys?

Hello, wanted to hear comments on getting a Masters in Electrical Engineering. What is the department like, the professors, the number of grad students, and the housing.

Likes, dislikes.

Hi all,

I’m an incoming freshman for the 2023 fall semester and I’m wondering if I should start out with intro to computer science (101) or introduction to programming (113). I took AP computer science principles my sophomore year of high school and scored a 4 on the exam which gives me possible credit for 101, however I’m still waiting on my calculus results to see if I can get into the co-requisite. Is it worth it to go straight into 113 if I can or would it be too much of a learning curve without 101.

For reference, i took AP computer science principles through Code.org which covers things such as variables and basic data types like arrays as well as functions. The internet and representation of data was covered as well, with a sort of light section on encryption and compression.

I would appreciate any perspective y’all could offer, thank you for your time !

I heard a rumor that there is a shirt out there in the world that reads something to the tune of

"New Mexico Tech -- Giving the world the shaft since 1889" and now I have to have it.

Do any of you fine Miners happen to have a picture of this shirt you could share so I could recreate the graphic and make myself this shirt? TIA!

Title My test scores placed me into algebra, and I have been wanting to go to tech but I don't know if it is even worth it, since I need to do 4 classes in order to finally get into calculus 2. And since i need calc 2 for almost every cs class. Is it even worth it?

I'm scheduled to take Numerical Methods & Analysis next fall but not sure who will be teaching the class. Can anyone comment on the class? What software do I need and is there a final project?

Thanks

Looking ahead for next fall, I'm taking Advanced Strength of Materials with Ryu. Can anyone comment on the class? What software does the class use if any? Is there a final project in the class? What could I do over the summer break to prepare?

Thank you

Hey, I am somewhat new on campus, and I don't follow what's going on with the administration changes. Is (former) President Wells really sick, or did the board of regents fire him? And why is President Lopez back? I heard he left on bad terms 7 years ago. Some one who's been here longer please explain!

I'm an international student looking to apply to new mexico tech's grad programs but my undergrad gpa is kinda far from "stellar",what are my chances? All suggestions are welcome,thanks in advance

Hello, looking at getting into Baca next fall. Can anyone comment on living in Baca please.
