<p>Hey..I've been browsing through my many applications, and now that I actually have to narrow it down, how reputable is the engineering program? Can I be pretty much gauranteed a job or...is it more only CS?</p>
<p>Reputable? Here are the US News rankings among Universities with PhD programs. You can certainly quibble over each ranking, but top 15 in all types of engineering gives you an idea of CMU's engineering reputation. Solid if not flashy. I don't think CMU engineering grads are lacking for job offers. </p>
