Did you start this thread? Someone is trying to convince us a thread to bash Emory is somehow Emory boosters fault...

+100, it was most likely started by a GaTech mom or student. As an Atlanta native, I know when they're around. The second half of the thread has way too many GT references; the Emory bashers are obsessed with the fact that it doesn't have an engineering program or is "STEM lite." Also, they point to things many outside of Georgia wouldn't know, like the SAT scandal from over a decade ago, among other things. GT grads are very pompous but are frustrated that they aren't even the best school in a 20-mile radius, let alone the region. In this thread, they went from bashing Emory to asking whether Emory and GT should merge. It's very transparent.

I think where this GT/Emory debate goes off the rails is that even GA residents might not always appreciate this: GT is one of the top engineering schools in the world and arguably the top school for certain disciplines. Engineers and most prospective engineering students recognize this and treat it as such, regardless of the school's overall ranking or reputation when compared to more liberal arts-focused schools like Emory. When you're looking at programs like computer science, aerospace engineering, or industrial engineering, GT competes directly with MIT, Stanford, and Carnegie Mellon and not with liberal arts colleges. It's almost like comparing a world class specialty hospital to a general medical center; both serve important but different purposes.

Emory is the world class specialty hospital. You do know only 6% of all students study engineering? And GT isn't even the best at all the disaplines. Also, you're gaslighting. No one is attacking GT for not having a medical school, yet people attack Emory for not having an engineering school. Why is that? Because despite their hurt feelings they know Emory is the better school and think it not being comprehensive is a way to bring it down a notch. No reason to do so for GT because its not elite.

+1, we would hope a college would be good at would it does when all it does is one thing. Emory had breadth and depth and GT just depth. Thats why Emory is and will always be ranked higher.

Can you list what Emory does well (i.e. majors) at the undergraduate level in the Top 10 besides something like nursing? Most people select schools by major. Please supply ranking links. Honestly, just curious because I don't know.

What does GT do well besides engineering?

It's called The Georgia Institute of Technology for a reason. When you have established yourselves as a Top 1-4 school in your field and 1-5 at every engineering discipline I think that's achieving your goals at a high level. Hence, why 68,000 people applied this last cycle with an overall 12.7 % acceptance rate and 9% rate for OOS. Why so much hate for your next door Atlanta neighbor?

How does GT being world class at engineering / STEM impact Emory? Emory is very good at a lot of things, it's just not world class at anything.

Emory is world class at plenty
https://premium.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/emory-university-139658/overall-rankings

Gatech isnt worldclass at all the stem feilds...just engineering. Its Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Earth Science programs are lacking for a science institute.

This is a facetious argument; Emory is best at healthcare, and all need a graduate degree.

Being #1 for nursing and #8 for business means top 10 for the two most popular majors in America. 2 majors that will only get more popular as CS/Engineering becomes even less popular due to AI.

They'll ignore this pp. They have a weird against against the school. Emory has very much future proofed itself at the things its chose to do well. The others are bragging about aerospace engineering as if AI wont be able to figure out how to build the best rockets in due time. We'll always need nurses, and they'll always be business men.

Look, I think GT is a great school...but MIT is called the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and has top ranked programs in political science, business, economics and many other non-STEM disciplines which is why it always ranks very highly overall.

If I were GT, I would just get rid of nearly all the humanities and liberal arts. The reason their overall ranking lags so much is because these departments are quite weak in general.

+1, we would hope a college would be good at would it does when all it does is one thing. Emory had breadth and depth and GT just depth. Thats why Emory is and will always be ranked higher.

Can you list what Emory does well (i.e. majors) at the undergraduate level in the Top 10 besides something like nursing? Most people select schools by major. Please supply ranking links. Honestly, just curious because I don't know.

What does GT do well besides engineering?

It's called The Georgia Institute of Technology for a reason. When you have established yourselves as a Top 1-4 school in your field and 1-5 at every engineering discipline I think that's achieving your goals at a high level. Hence, why 68,000 people applied this last cycle with an overall 12.7 % acceptance rate and 9% rate for OOS. Why so much hate for your next door Atlanta neighbor?

How does GT being world class at engineering / STEM impact Emory? Emory is very good at a lot of things, it's just not world class at anything.

Yeah don’t get this poster’s hate. We are a GT family. I feel only love for our next door neighbor. Don’t think they are representative of most people at Emory

Did you start this thread? Someone is trying to convince us a thread to bash Emory is somehow Emory boosters fault...

+100, it was most likely started by a GaTech mom or student. As an Atlanta native, I know when they're around. The second half of the thread has way too many GT references; the Emory bashers are obsessed with the fact that it doesn't have an engineering program or is "STEM lite." Also, they point to things many outside of Georgia wouldn't know, like the SAT scandal from over a decade ago, among other things. GT grads are very pompous but are frustrated that they aren't even the best school in a 20-mile radius, let alone the region. In this thread, they went from bashing Emory to asking whether Emory and GT should merge. It's very transparent.

I think where this GT/Emory debate goes off the rails is that even GA residents might not always appreciate this: GT is one of the top engineering schools in the world and arguably the top school for certain disciplines. Engineers and most prospective engineering students recognize this and treat it as such, regardless of the school's overall ranking or reputation when compared to more liberal arts-focused schools like Emory. When you're looking at programs like computer science, aerospace engineering, or industrial engineering, GT competes directly with MIT, Stanford, and Carnegie Mellon and not with liberal arts colleges. It's almost like comparing a world class specialty hospital to a general medical center; both serve important but different purposes.

Emory is the world class specialty hospital. You do know only 6% of all students study engineering? And GT isn't even the best at all the disaplines. Also, you're gaslighting. No one is attacking GT for not having a medical school, yet people attack Emory for not having an engineering school. Why is that? Because despite their hurt feelings they know Emory is the better school and think it not being comprehensive is a way to bring it down a notch. No reason to do so for GT because its not elite.
