That’s a great question because the answer is purely qualitative - everyone will have their own opinion. My impression is that as a university it’s well-regarded in the Midwest but may not be well-known in other parts of the country. It is, however, highly regarded as a Jesuit university. It also (I believe) has a very loyal alumni network.

And for specific programs (engineering being one) it is highly-regarded. My son will study engineering and I have no concern for his job prospects in the Midwest. But if he wanted to move eventually to Seattle or Phoenix, we might not be looking at Marquette.
