<p>redbeard,
UVA doesn’t have better poli sci and business, at least not according to graduate rankings. FYI: UMich’s poli sci is ranked #3. </p>
<p>VirginiaAlum,
The graduate ranking for “overall” engineering is indeed pretty screwed up. However, the departmental rankings are pretty good and Michigan is well-represented in those. I think a Michigan team just won the intercollegiate solar car competition this year. </p>
<p>Someone mentioned about US News selectivity rank and I think US News is incorrect to put UVA below Michigan. It should be reverse. The error is pretty obvious to me. The US News misranked quite a few schools in this category.</p>
