If you’re an official wondering where to send the next batch of bright engineering students, or if you’re a student looking to study engineering abroad, UK-based QS can help.
The company’s annual survey of the world’s top universities has named Massachusetts Institute of Technology as the world’s top engineering school in 2009, followed by University of California Berkeley, Stanford University and University of Cambridge.
Each institution’s score is based on six key indicators: Academic Peer Review, Employer Review, Faculty Student Ratio, Citations per Faculty, International Faculty and International Students. The Academic Peer Review element accounts for the largest portion, 40%, of the overall score.
Nunzio Quacquarelli, managing director of QS, says: “QS was founded in 1990 as a student project with a view to helping bright young people make the right education and career decisions. Nearly 20 years later, our mission and passion is still to help bright young people fulfil their potential through educational achievement, international mobility and career development.
QS, whose main are offices are in London, Paris and Singapore, organises the QS World MBA Tour and the QS World Grad School Tour.
Here is the list of top 10 engineering universities.
