<p>P.S. There are some state schools that are up there too, but I don’t know and don’t care about their rank. Notably UC-Berkeley, UIUC, you get the point.</p>

4

<p>anyone know where its best to study neuroscience?</p>

5

<p>Stanford. Look up a crazy-haired gentleman named Dr. Robert Sapolsky. You’ll immediately see why I’m right.</p>

<p>P.S. Oh, I’m sorry, he’s a professor of neurobiology. Slightly different, but the research has a lot of overlap.</p>

6

<p>I was about to say, you’re completely leaving out state schools that are as good if not better than those listed. I know Berkeley has top econ/compsci/physics/mechE departments.</p>

7

<p>I think the best place to study all three of them, econ, physics, cs and engineering
are</p>

<p>mit
stanford
princeton
caltech
harvard</p>

<p>thanks tokyorevelation9, i hadnt really considered the west coast, but am now intrigued :)</p>

<p>for undergrad neuroscience:</p>

<p>MIT
Brown
UCSD
Duke
Harvard</p>

<p>I don’t think you can study Economics at Caltech…</p>

<p>Economics Best Undergrad</p>

<p>University of Chicago
Harvard
MIT
Columbia
Stanford</p>

11

<p>I think I’ll note that Cal should be in at least one of those categories… I’m led to believe as such anyway; and I’m not even a Cal fanatic - not going there, opting to go elsewhere. But only were it private, huh?</p>

<p>If Brown is really regarded that highly in Computer Science, guess I learn something new all the time! I had no idea anyway.</p>

12

<p>Cornell should definately be in the top 5 places for studying Computer Science.</p>

13

<p>Cornell would be tied with Princeton in computer science. You sacrifice smaller class sizes at Cornell, but thats about it.</p>

<p>Looks like a MIT and Stanford sweep!</p>

15

<p>But MIT is to intense…whenever i think MIT i think smart Asians…</p>

16

<p>Alexandre dead on!!!</p>

<p>i was actually angry not to see cal on cs list…</p>

University of Southern California
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo

18

<p>Proudtrojan, I am pretty sure Rice belongs on any top 5 undergraduate architecture list.</p>

19

<p>shouldn’t caltech be amongst the best places to study maths?</p>
