What are some good Computer Engineering programs?

Applying to College
1

Hi, does anyone know any colleges with good CE programs apart from already well known T30 schools. I am looking for programs that are more balanced between EE and CS since some of the programs I’ve looked at are very EE heavy only.

I’m sure there’s many.

In engineering, look beyond top whatever - and look deeper.

Figure out what you want - where, size, weather, etc. Price, etc.

If you looked at ABET schools, there are 306 - and I’d dig deeper. I’m not sure ABET matters for CE - others would have to answer - but I suspect outcomes will be strong and opportunities similar at many schools

There’s a lot of ways to pick a school - but top 30 means nothing once you step on campus - you have to be there four years, day after day.

I suggest creating a “chance me / match me” thread and filling out the information in the template. That’ll help the community provide appropriate suggestions. It’s hard (and unhelpful) to make recommendations without knowing anything about you.

At Ohio State the ECE department is for either the EE or CE program of study. CS/CSE is a different department.
