It was affordable and had a very good chemical engineering program. I originally planned to get my masters in biomedical engineering after I finished, so this program led to that very well. I liked the people I met in Las Cruces, and the head of the department was very helpful.

There was an engineering fee, and a fee to be apart of the club. The engineering fee covered equipment costs and computer maintenance. The club fee covered a t-shirt and the food for each meeting during the year.
