[quote=Anonymous]I just want to point out that unlike the overall college and university rankings, U.S. News uses no formula for the undergraduate discipline rankings. Instead, they send out surveys to deans and senior faculty at the engineering schools and ask them to rate other programs on a scale of 1 to 5. Then they average the score and list them in order. Response rate to these surveys was 34% for non-doctorate-granting programs and 49% for doctorate-granting programs. [url] https://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/articles/undergraduate-ranking-methodologies[/url] I wouldn’t put too much emphasis on these rankings. They aren’t even trying to provide an objective assessment of these programs in any way. [/quote]
