My school is best known for engineering. There is an awesome engineering program with its own campus, Centennial Campus. I am not an engineer, therefore, I do not possess a lot of knowledge about this academic study but I do know that they are great at what they do.

North Carolina State is known worldwide as a top engineering school. A lot of the funding for the school goes to their world-class engineering programs. At the same time though, none of the other programs are lacking. When you tell people that you attend State it means something, it carries a lot of weight in the community.

To me, NCSU is most known for its prestigious engineering graduates it produces, as well as its ground breaking research performed in varied fields of technology and industry.

My school is best known for the hard working students. Anyone looking to hire an NCSU student knows they would be hiring someone with a very strong work ethic and great personable skills. We are also best known for our football tailgates as well!

The NC State Wolfpack may be best know for the fact that it is one of the few college team names that doesn't have a letter S in it. However, what I have quickly learned is the that the Wolfpack is more than just a mascot, it is a philosophy. Once you are a student here you become part of the pack, and the pack is like a great big extend family. Go Pack!

NCSU is a research based university that offers strong engineering, science, and business programs, and is competitive with Duke and UNC, the other top schools in the "Research Triangle". NC State is about fifteen minutes from downtown Raleigh, which is the fastest growing city in the US, but also just as close to a ton of outdoor nature parks and forests.
