Does anyone have the full list (not just the top 5) of best undergrad programs in the Engineering Science/Engineering Physics specialty? It was on the 2008 list but not on the 2009 list. Thanks.

anyone know if UCI is considered a good school for aerospace / mechanical engineering in the industry? despite the low ranking XD and how much do employers emphasize which school you went to?

Has anyone seen a ranking that combines/compares the engineering programs at PhD and non-PhD schools? We're considering UIUC and Bucknell.

Any list of undergrad engr without Calpoly SLO or Rose Holman is not worth the paper is printed on - this one has neither.
