And I’m not trying to sell UCLA on anyone. My prior remarks in this thread were defending the school. The engineering faculty is reknowned. Why it isn’t higher in the rankings is beyond me. Besides the fact of… rankings/smankings for the most part for undergrad; grad is a different story entirely.

The area does produce a brain drain for faculty, but the students may find the Westside more appealing to attend school for four years. And again, they won’t be hurting for opportunities when they graduate because UCLA engineering grads are highly qualified. (Add consulting as another option of UCLA e grads.)
