[quote=Anonymous]As a hiring manager, I do not care much about rankings. Top few might be better, but my experience is that what really matters for on the job performance -- so what I mostly care about when hiring -- are: Which specific degree? Which specialty within that degree? Did the student take the rigorous upper-level in-major courses? What concrete skills do they bring? If they did a senior project, what was it? ABET sets a high floor. In my experience, almost all engineering programs are rigorous. No one accidentally gets an engineering degree. It takes a lot of hard work, even for the bright capable students. [/quote]
