<p>I am interested in applying to Duke Engineering, and was wondering about the strength of the overall school. I know that the BME department is well-known, but how strong are the other departments, especially Electrical and Computer Engineering?</p>
<p>DukeDoc99 is an engineering professor and a great resource for both ME and ECE. </p>
<p>I’d recommend looking at the list of companies that recruit Duke engineers and see if they interest you.</p>
<p>OK thank you. Where could I find a list of the companies that recruit Duke engineers?</p>
<p>Tech Connect ([TechConnect</a> | Duke Pratt School of Engineering](<a href=“http://www.pratt.duke.edu/industry/techconnect]TechConnect”>TechConnect Networking Events @ Duke | Duke Pratt School of Engineering), [Sponsors</a> | Duke Pratt School of Engineering](<a href=“http://www.pratt.duke.edu/industry/techconnect/sponsors]Sponsors”>TechConnect Networking Events @ Duke | Duke Pratt School of Engineering)) is certainly one place to look in terms of the companies that recruit here, though it is by no means exhaustive.</p>
<p>ECE is a strong department, both in its own right and in its connections with other departments (in particular, work that spans ECE & BME and ECE & CS). Here’s the executive summary of some of the metrics - [About</a> | Duke Electrical and Computer Engineering](<a href=“http://www.ee.duke.edu/about]About”>From the Chair | Duke Electrical and Computer Engineering) - though of course those kinds of things do not tell the whole story!</p>
