[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These rankings are usually based on faculty productivity.  Number of publications, amount of research grant money brought in.  That is highly correlated with the size of the faculty, of course.  More professors means more papers and more money.[/quote]
"Top academics and officials at computer science programs rated the overall quality of undergraduate programs with which they were familiar on a 1-5 scale. A school’s undergraduate computer science rank is solely determined by its average of scores received from these surveys. To be included in this standalone peer assessment survey and ranked, a program must either have been accredited by ABET, housed in an institution that grants Ph.D.s in computer science or engineering, or have recently awarded 20 or more bachelor's degrees in computer science."[/quote]

Considering the ABET requirement,  I guess that would a number of SLACs from consideration. Interesting to, that in the case of NYU, CS program at Tandon Engineering would be included, but most receive degrees from the CAS.[/quote]
My SLAC alma mater graduates about 50 CS majors per year.[/quote]
