<p>Are there any resources that rank colleges by Major/Department?</p>
<p>There are all sorts of rankings if you search CC. But, I think the focus on ranking at the undergrad level by departments really misses a lot. One should choose a college for many reasons. When you go to grad school, dept rank may matter much more. The exception might be some specialized program. As an undergrad I don't think that going to the top ranked dept in subject x out of say the top 20 or 30 colleges would change much in your education on average. The other things that make up the experience will. Not a fan of rankings.</p>
<p>I think undergrad is a bit more about location and getting a 'college experience'. Of course, the college's department is also important, but in my opinion that's more for graduate schools. </p>
<p>But just google college rankings and you'll find them...though I think they rank colleges by major as graduate schools, not undergrad.</p>
