In Your Opinion: Best Engineering/Science Schools

[qIat]

We're talking about overall engineering (except for industrial engeering), and sciences as related to mathematics and physics. You know, the "revered" subjects.

Give me your top 3 for each group, U.S. schools only please.

Don't link me to rankings; I want YOUR opinion.

(feel free to copy and paste and then put in your answers)

For Engineering (industrial excepted):

1-MIT
2-CalTech
3-Berkeley/Stanford (my conscience got the better of me )

For Science (mathematics/physics):

1-Princeton
2-CalTech
3-Harvard

 

[MacBaine]

University of IL in Urbana Champaign is one of the top engineering schools in the world.

 

[Rivergater]

stanford needs to be in that list for engineering.

i'd round that out to be tier one.

can't argue with you on the math list.

 

[bolido2000]

Carnegie Mellon

 

[cchen]

columbia is one of the best schools for pure math and science

move CalTech to #1 and you've got it right

University of Toronto!

 

[tontod]

Georgia Tech is a really good Engineering school.

 

[OutHouse]

Colorado School of Mines

 

[ga14]

Duke has a great math program.

 

[Novgrod]

the university of chicago has the best engineering school in the world. well it doesn't because it doesn't have an engineering school, but they're pretty good at math and really excellent at physics.

otherwise another vote for CM.

University of Waterloo

Yeah and their football team is tops too. Oh wait, what's that? I believe the score was 51-7! Pahahaha

 

[iispeedyii]

school sux

its hard to say which one is the best, unless you attended a bunch of the engineering schools.

 

[gopunk]

MIT

i know in reality it may not be better, but i view it as the best... everything else is second place imo.

 

[StormRider]

University of Maryland at College Park is one of the best! Probably underrated by most people but I think we can go toe to toe with anyone.

 

[cressida]

don't go to school ... experience is best

 

[WhiteKnight]

For Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins.

 

[saltedeggman]

University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, i believe ranked #2 nationwide in EE (that is electrical engineering) and that is also my major

 

[Zebo]

Calpoly San Luis Obispo

Price/performance leader if you can get in.

They are #1 in areospace and are just as heavily recriuted as CalTech

Word!

 

[elanarchist]

Cornell has the finest College of Engineering in the Ivy League.
