<p>Which school is better based on academics only and nothing else?</p>
<p>purdue is considered better for engineering but its highly competitive to get into their program…</p>
<p>Penn State overall</p>
<p>yea but why is penn state ranked higher? Purdue has a better engineering program. there pharmacy program is number 4 in the nation. There sciences and mathametics are regarded as top notch. as far as Aronautics and everything… well thats self explanatory. The research on campus is great. They have relations with IU Med school and many other programs.</p>
