Feeders into top engineering graduate schools?

<p>While it is true that Reed has the fourth highest percentage of its graduates later earning PhD's in the Sciences and Engineering category, the total number of engineering PhD's is small (15 for 1986-95, latest data available). Note also that Reed has no engineering department, but rather a 3/2 dual degree program with Caltech, Columbia and Rensselaer. Reed's PhD data is at <a href="http://web.reed.edu/ir/phdrank.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://web.reed.edu/ir/phdrank.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>
