U.S. News ranks graduate programs in engineering, business highly



MIT’s graduate program in engineering has again been ranked as the best in the nation in U.S. News & World Report’s annual rankings. The Institute has held the No. 1 spot since 1990, when the magazine first ranked such programs.
In the annual U.S. News ranking of the nation’s graduate programs in business, the MIT Sloan School of Management was ranked No. 5, also unchanged from last year.
U.S. News awarded MIT a score of 100 among graduate programs in engineering, followed by No. 2 Stanford University (92), No. 3 University of California at Berkeley (86), and No. 4 California Institute of Technology (79).
MIT’s graduate programs lead U.S. News lists this year in six engineering disciplines: aerospace engineering; chemical engineering; computer engineering (tied with Stanford and Berkeley); electrical/electronic/communications engineering (tied with Stanford); materials engineering; and mechanical engineering. Two other MIT graduate programs were also top-five finishers: nuclear engineering, at No. 2, and biomedical engineering, which tied for No. 4 with Duke University.
In the rankings of graduate programs in business, MIT Sloan ranked fifth, behind Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, Harvard Business School, the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and the Booth School of Business at the University of Chicago.
