Purdue has a high engineering rank, then why does its overall rank obscure?

Thank you Father of the Boarder.

Anyone has the complete ranking lists for Chemical Engineering Graduate Programs. Just wanted to find out where the programs I have applied to are ranked. Four of them are in top 10 but wanted to find out others too.

this one is @ Flibb:

I have wondered that too, for a long time.

Then I went there on some business, and I could instantly tell. It's just in the air... I hate to say it, but the place is magic.

You should check it out. Go there, especially if you've got some years left in your undergrad, because seeing it will inspire you.

@ Engineering Specialty Rankings: Nuclear
Surprising variation from the US news rankings.... I have no idea whom I can rely on now :P
*confused*
And are there any Univs that focus on fusion technologies on undergrad level?
(class 11 student from India planning to go into hardcore fusion technolologies research in the US)
Thank you in advance for your help!
