<p>How well are engineers recruited to ibanks at the ivys and top universities? do they have an advantage or disadvantage over lib-arts grads, and what happens at schools like Emory or Michigan that have business schools? Would engineers get i-bank jobs in that situation?</p>
<p>any major can get you an ib job if you show interest in it.</p>
<p>what i'm concerned about is if recruiters would go to a school like michigan and only go after ross grads and overlook the engineers</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>Penn's SEAS: <a href="http://www.vpul.upenn.edu/careerservices/seas/survey2005.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.vpul.upenn.edu/careerservices/seas/survey2005.pdf</a></p>
<p>For engineering degrees without a wharton degree:</p>
<p>Goldman: 1
Citigroup: 2
Merrill Lynch: 5
UBS: 2
Deutche: 1
Lehman: 2</p>
<p>Obviously, Wharton takes the lion's share, but the numbers for engineering look pretty decent, since fewer engineers are interested.</p>
<p>Columbia SEAS recruits really well also and MIT Engineers get recruited the most by consulting firms and IB's. I would say this is the ranking for Engineers recruited for IB and top consulting:</p>
<p>1)MIT
2)Columbia SEAS
3)Stanford/UC-Berkeley
4)Cornell/Carnegie Mellon
5)Umich/Upenn</p>
<p>Those schools are top for recruitment by financial firms and afte MIT, most of you may not believe, but Columbia SEAS has really amazing placementand I know for a fact that it had more recruitment than Upenn SEAS.</p>
<p>LOL - I like how people like to make "rankings." Are you going to back that up with real data or merely with anecdotal evidence and hearsay recycled from earlier posts?</p>
<p>I have reall data, here look: for Columbia Seas: <a href="http://www.ieor.columbia.edu/companies.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.ieor.columbia.edu/companies.html</a></p>
<p>It said on teh link somewhere that at least 1 graduate or more got jobs with every company and that is only the Industrail engineering and Operations research at SEAS not the entire school. You can find the recruitment of MIT just my going the website of any IB, the yalways feature more than enough MIT grads an MIT has the best engineering to IB placement. You already found UPENN SEAS info yourself and the rest are in reasonable range. Citadel recruits at Carnegie mellon (CIT) for example. Also, cornell engineering has good placement with PE firms even so it was reported in earlier post on CC. Umich engineering gets recruited simply because of its powerhouse ROSS which attracts many IBs and all IBs have a tech department which indulges itself on Umich grads. As for Stanford and UC-Berkeley engineering, they practically rule the West coast, especially stanford engineering which places people into IBs a lot because for their background in techinical areas and because of all the M&A's which take place in Silicon Valley and teh same for UC-berkeley. God, I hate it when people make you "prove" things. I must defend my CC honor lol.</p>
<p>"cornell engineering has good placement with PE firms even so it was reported in earlier post on CC"</p>
<p>can you get a link for that, because very few PE firms recruit from undergrad, and most that do go mainly to Harvard/Wharton.</p>
<p>dude, its in the business section just search PE or something I really don't havethe time to search it for you.</p>
<p>I didn't find anything on it, but I seriously doubt that any PE firm recruits Cornell engineers.</p>
<p>but are engineers recruited for more technical back office stuff or the same jobs that a wharton or HYP grad would get?</p>
<p>I'm not sure, but I'm guessing most engineers would apply for more of a trading/quant role, which is usually front office.</p>
<p>^Look, in a previous link before it said by someone on CC that their Father was head of a PE firm in the midwest and that his father had hired like 3 or 4 Cornell engineers with a 3.5+ GPA because they were really good. Also, Check the link I posted for Columbia Industrial Engineering, I think 2 or 3 PE firms actively recruit there. Maybe not Blackstone, but others.</p>
<p>yea. there are more PEs than Blackstone.</p>
<p>Check out Roark Capital. it's a PE firm in good ole' atlanta.</p>
<p>What I mentioned earlier was that you simply can't use anecdotal evidence to make a ranking like that. Also, the list of companies you gave would look about the same for most top engineering schools.</p>
<p>Either way, the top PE firms, which is what everyone aims for, do not recruit cornell engineers, but still cornell engineers are very well placed.</p>
<p>blackstone only recruits on 8 campuses I believe.</p>
<p>you guys understand how hard it is to make it into PE in general right? You are talking about making it into TOP PE firms when people who attended top graduate business schools can't get a job at any PE firm. You have to understand that working for any PE firm is rediculously harder than nearly any investment bank or consulting firm.</p>
<p>i think it was harvard, wharton, umich, and uva</p>
