Portland State University is a great small university spread out in the middle of downtown portland. That's it's biggest charm and biggest failing. Parking is such a nightmare that classes can be 1/2 hr late while you try to find a spot. Also the student staff in Neuberger hall is not at all friendly. Apparently english is the third language for most of these folks and they looks at you like you're from another planet everytime you try to register or submit any sort of official paperwork. The professors for the Electrical Engineering dept are very competent and helpful as are the MBA professors - PSU has a reputation for liberal arts majors, not for engineering/MBA's but the potential is definitnely there.
