Generally, I look to the USNWR edition about US Graduate School rankings in various subjects and departments as an indication of the strength of a program for undergraduates. If its in the top 10 or so for a Phd, M.A, or Law/Medicine degree, then its likely a very strong undergraduate program. (Though I know that is a generalization and may overlook schools that dont offer graduate degrees in that field or others).
