Their EECS data is plentiful and impressive, I must say, but it’s probably a bit misleading (only the best outcomes would be reported anyway).



They likely report whatever responses come in. Of course, these days, CS is doing very well in general (including in other http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/internships-careers-employment/1121619-university-graduate-career-surveys-4.html ; based on class sizes, it appears that most EECS majors are emphasizing CS these days). Other majors (e.g. molecular and cell biology) are not doing so well in the survey. MS&E is a relatively small major, so the survey data is sparse for that reason (EECS is the largest engineering major).

Take a look at the course catalogs and curricula to see how easily you can construct a four year curriculum for yourself at each school.
