USNWR - FSU Graduate Programs 2010 Edition

<p>Some improved rankings…

See: [FSU.com</a> :: Florida State graduate programs among nation’s best](<a href=“http://www.fsu.com/pages/2009/04/24/best_grad_programs.html]FSU.com”>http://www.fsu.com/pages/2009/04/24/best_grad_programs.html)</p>

<p>Of course there is no mention that FSU’s engineering and business programs have fallen into the abyss of “unranked” schools.</p>

<p>Ratings come and go…I suppose you noticed FSU Law improved 15 spots recently?</p>

<p>FSU engineering needs to split from the joint association with FAMU. It dilutes what each university could do.</p>

<p>Regarding state engineering colleges - all dropped in rank and FSU’s e-school dropped out as this year the rank now stopped at 90, where last year it included FSU at 92.</p>

<p>Ratings summary, last year - this year (graduate engineering):
UF - 24 now 25
UCF - 80 now 86
FSU 92 now unranked as the ratings stop at 90.</p>

<p>Miami & USF are not ranked in Engineering BTW</p>

<p>Rogracer, your passion for excellence would fit perfectly at the [University</a> of Florida](<a href=“http://www.ufl.edu/]University”>http://www.ufl.edu/) . We have the best [url=<a href=“University of Florida - Wikipedia”>University of Florida - Wikipedia]history[/url</a>] of students who care.</p>

<p>Dabigdawg, stop being ■■■■■■■■.</p>

<p>Florida State has a more interesting history than UF. It is an older school and has been richly involved with the state of Florida since the beginning.</p>

<p>Recruiting rogracer is a worthy cause, however. ;)</p>

<p>[This</a> Wikipedia article](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Florida_State_University]This”>History of Florida State University - Wikipedia) contains even more detail regarding FSU’s history than the [main</a> FSU page on Wikipedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_State]main”>Florida State University - Wikipedia).</p>

<p>Who cares whose past is more interesting? The only thing that matters is right now and tomorrow!!! UF’s research and endowment is much much much more interesting than FSU’s ;)</p>

<p>But I think you completely missed Dabigdawg72’s sarcasm!</p>

<p>It is important to be part of something that lasts and was significant and is significant to Florida. In a way, it is more important than having a med school or law school for a longer time (which is where a lot of $$ comes from for that endowment). But you are completely correct that the past is prologue.</p>

<p>What makes Harvard a Harvard? Probably more than anything else - time.</p>
