<p>Hi all, I have narrowed down my list of colleges that I would like to major in Comp Eng to the following colleges:</p>
<p>University of Michigan - Ann Arbor
University of Illinois - Urbana-Champaign
University of Wisconsin - Madison
Purdue University</p>
<p>Would Wisconsin provide better job placement than Purdue? Specifically if I am interested in going to ibanking or being a securities trader.</p>
<p>U of I,Umich</p>
<p>For ibanking what Jason said, although it'll still be a little harder to get into ibanking from those schools than MIT etc. BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE! For "engineering jobs" they will all provide about the same job opportunities with the above mentioned schools giving you a very slight advantage.</p>
<p>So wisconsin and purdue aren't as respected as U of I and UMich huh?</p>
<p>not quite as highly... Wisc. is prety close though.</p>
<p>Wisconsin is pretty close</p>
<p>Purdue always puzzles me.Because Purdue ranks high while it's actually a less selective school.
I don't know why.</p>
<p>by the way,I think you should try some schools in Texas or California if you really care about job placement.</p>
<p>All four are great engineering schools and will give excellent job opportunities.</p>
<p>Jason1117 - You mentioned that I should add some California/Texas schools to my list. As I am out of state I don't think I will fare well at UCLA/UCB and am not really attracted to the Texas campus, but my father is an alumni at UCSD, is the job placement good at UCSD for comp. engineers?</p>
<p>the qualifier that needs to be added is "if you do well". There is a high percentage of students at these schools with < 3.0 GPA's who do not get many job offers.</p>
<p>What about CUNY City College ? Isnt that a great school for engineering ? How about Biomedical Engineering? Can anyone tell me if it is a plus into getting into medical school with a Bac. in bio med of course w/t pre meds? WHy and why not? if any one has any feedbacks of course opinions but mainly facts i would appreciate it. Thanks</p>
<p>Another thing, do most of City College students whom apply to med-school get accepted, what is the percentage? What do you know about the correlation of CUNY students getting into Med- school , mainly the Ives</p>
<p>U Mich > U of I > Wisc > Purdue</p>
<p>drramonblanco i will private message you. i am attending city college.</p>
<p>where are you from?</p>
<p>I think most of schools you guys mentioned will open some doors for you.
And the rest of it totally depends on you. College is what you make of it.</p>
<p>engineeringwise UIUC>UMICH>Wisconsin>Purdue</p>
<p>Nope. UIUC = UMICH = Wisconsin = Purdue</p>
<p>nah dude , UMich and UIUC are definitely better than Purdue and Wisc.</p>
<p>(Umich=UIUC) > (Purdue=Wisconsin)</p>
<p>Wisconsin consistently ranks ahead of Purdue for a broader range of engineering disciplines, and in a few it's one of the best in the country (biomed/nuclear). I would on the whole say that UIUC takes the cake, while the differences between the other three are pretty minimal. But of course, this is CC, and we MUST HAVE A DEFINITIVE SET OF ELITE SCHOOLS!</p>
