<p>I work in one and my advice is to look for specific things that interest you and see who has a stronger field ie robotics or bioengineering. Harvard has recently grown it’s department but all faculty there have to fund research so the primary focus is not always under grad teaching. If you are really engineering bound why not Stanford or UC Berkley if you want a multi focused school - otherwise MIT, Cal Tech etc are all ranked higher that H or Y</p>
