I assume that you are looking at the US News rankings of undergraduate colleges for engineering, where RHIT has been #1 and Mudd has been #2 or tied for #1 over the past several years. The methodology that US News uses for ranking undergraduate colleges in engineering is based on the judgement of deans and faculty members of peer colleges. No other factors, e.g. test scores or selectivity, are considered. So that is how the rankings shake out, according to these other schools. The response rate was 28% for that survey. Also note that HMC was rated for its programs in mechanical and electrical engineering, though it doesn’t offer degrees in specific engineering disciplines, which shows how familiar these other peers are with the Mudd program.
