[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smaller schools for engineering:

Colorado School of Mines
RPI
Rochester University
WPI
Rose Hulman
RIT
Olin
Harvey Mudd
Stevens Institute of Technology
Bucknell
Lehigh 
Lafayette
CWRU

I think UIUC engineering is a reach for everyone.  UMD and Purdue are probably matches.[/quote]

Can someone rank this list?[/quote]

By size?
Ease of transportation back and forth?
Friendliness to service animals?
Likelihood of getting a single?
By strength of your child's particular engineering focus?

Oh, you mean you prefer someone else to rank based on what they deem to be important? [/quote]

internship/job placement/average salaries[/quote]

By starting salary (number is overall rank by Payscale for bachelors degree from engineering schools):

4. Mudd (FYI -- this is a reach school for everyone; also starting salary is higher than MIT, CIT, and Stanford)
12. Hulman - 6. Stevens (same)
13. WPI
8. Colorado SoM
15. RPI
34. RIT
(the rest are not in the Top 40 starting salaries for undergraduate engineering degrees)

By Mid-career:

4. Mudd
6. Stevens
8. Colorado SoM
12. Hulman - 13. WPI (same)
15. RPI
34. RIT
(the rest are not in the Top 40 starting salaries for undergraduate engineering degrees)
