[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d hire the WPI grad in CS or CompE before hiring from the other places you mention, even if the WPI person had somewhat lower GPA. It is a stronger program in those majors. [/quote] I would be interested in why you think that. I have noticed that WPI is not ranked very well for CS, across many different ranking entities. The consolidated Brown CS ranking has WPI at 105. I have been curious about that low ranking. And I know ranking doesn’t mean everything—but it might mean something. [/quote] Is it because WPI is a more undergrad-focused institution? I think it's an R2. Wouldn't do as well in measures of publications, etc.[/quote]
