<p>Northwestern University!</p>

4

<p>Illinois, Mich., Purdue, Wisconsin, Northwestern.</p>

5

<p>Can you rank them from 1 to 5?</p>

6

<p>The Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology is ranked #1 in engineering for colleges whose highest degree is a bachelor's or master's degree. It's in Terre Haute, IN</p>

7

<p>Depends on the major.</p>

8

<p>^ very very true</p>

9

<p>Purdue isn't at the very top but it's well respected and it's one of the largest engineering schools in the U.S.</p>

<p>Is Pittsburgh in the midwest? If so, then Carnegie Mellon would top the list. Pittsburgh is a little bit east of midwest, putting it in the Middle East.</p>

11

<p>I don't think Carnegie Mellon tops Illinois, other than CS, CSE, EE, and other things related to robotics and CS, it is really not better than the big midwestern publics.</p>

<p>oh, and Collegehelp, we in Pittsburgh generally refer to ourselves as in the Mid-Atlantic, not Middle East (LOL)</p>

12

<p>Wisconsin-Madison, I went to an engineering program at the University of Wisconsin, and I must say that the school has excellent engineering resources.</p>

<p>Washington University is not bad for engineering either</p>

13

<p>university of Iran is also good</p>

14

<p>Boomer, I would go with the following groupings:</p>

<p>GROUP I
Carnegie Mellon University
University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign
University of Michigan-Ann Arbor</p>

<p>GROUP II
Northwestern University
Purdue University-West Lafayette
University of Wisconsin-Madison</p>

<p>Other notable Engineering programs:
Case Western Reserve University (primarily for Biomedical Engineering)
Pennsylvania State University-University Park
Rose Hulman Institute of Technology (LAC-style Engineering school)
University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (primarily for Chemical Engineering)
Washington University-St Louis (primarily for Biomedical Engineering)</p>
