U.S. News & World Report recently posted their “America’s Best Colleges 2008” web feature.  Some of the information they provide is free; more detail is available to paid subscribers of their Premium Online Edition.The rankings are based solely on a peer survey of deans and senior faculty that asked them to rate each program they are familiar with on a scale from 1 (marginal) to 5 (distinguished). 

They do have specific data for the Best Undergraduate Engineering Programs .

They make a distinction between institutions whose highest degree is a bachelor’s or master’s and those whose highest degree is a doctorate.

They also present list of colleges and universities by selecting the major you are interested in.  Click on the “folder” next to Engineering to expand the category to include the various engineering disciplines.

The information and tools provided by U.S. News & World Report on this web site can prove useful in your search for a quality college or university that meets your needs, and starts you on a path to being a licensed, professional engineer!
