<p>At the graduate level (which can be used as a surrogate for an undergraduate ranking, given that there aren’t any widely used rankings of undergraduate programs), Penn’s Computer Science Department is currently ranked among the top 10 or 20 (depending on ranking) in the country:</p>

<h1>3 in National Research Council (NRC) S-Rank-HIgh ranking (<a href=“http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/computer-science-rankings”>http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/computer-science-rankings&lt;/a&gt;)</h1>

<h1>7 in the NRC R-Rank-High ranking (same link as immediately above)</h1>

<h1>19 in US News ranking (<a href=“http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/computer-science-rankings”>http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-science-schools/computer-science-rankings&lt;/a&gt;)</h1>

<p>Are facilities crowded or is there space for everyone? Is it more theoretical or hands-on? Are the professors good?</p>
