<p>If anyone knows the most recent rankings for engineering and/or computer science, can you please tell me where Penn state and ohio state stand? Which of these schools has the best engineering/CSE program?</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>Those are for graduate programs. Completely different from undergrad. And the method for ranking is EXTREMELY flawed.</p>

4

<p>I believe that rankings for undergrad cs programs do not exist. Also, all rankings could be considered flawed. Nothing is absolute.</p>

5

<p>yeah, and they are from about 6 years ago. A lot of movement ahs happened since then. There was a thread here with engineering rankings for a bunch of majors.</p>

<p>i guess it is for graduate, but doesn’t it give you an idea?</p>

<p>Thank you collegemom, do you know where those ranks are from and from which year?</p>
