<p>Hi, I'm currently deciding between Duke and Cornell for ECE and/or CS. I was wondering if there were any detailed career reports for Duke's program like the ones they have for Cornell. I know many of Duke's engineering graduates work in other fields, like ibanking and consulting, but does anyone know if ECE/CS graduates get jobs at top firms like Google, Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft? Thanks</p>

<p>Yes, they do. I-banking and consulting is much more prevalent among MEs that ECEs. Here’s a breakdown for ECEs:</p>
<p>[Where</a> ECE Students Go | Duke Electrical and Computer Engineering](<a href=“http://www.ece.duke.edu/where-ece-students-go]Where”>Where Our Students Go | Duke Electrical and Computer Engineering)</p>
<p>36% Software Development and IT
14% Product Development and Research
14% Consultant/Analyst
7% Investment Banking
21% Engineering grad school
7% Military</p>
<p>Snapshot of 2007 graduates:</p>
<p>Graduate School</p>
<pre><code>* Stanford
- Yale
- Univ of Pittsburgh
- Northwestern
- Clemson
- Duke
</code></pre>
<p>Employers</p>
<pre><code>* Lockheed Martin

<p>Edit: It sounds like you already made up your mind going to Cornell since you requested housing there (based on your last post). Cornell is obviously a great program as well.</p>
<p>You can’t go wrong with Cornell engineering. Good luck</p>
<p>Just from my circle of friends, I know CS or ECE majors going to Facebook, Microsoft and Google. And there are def a lot more ECE kids that I haven’t met soo to answer your question: yeap! :)</p>
