For the third year in a row, Georgia Tech’s School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering is ranked 2nd in the nation (1st among public universities) for its undergraduate program in the latest rankings of U.S. News & World Report.
All 10 of the College’s undergraduate programs remain ranked in the top five for the fifth year in a row. For the first time, seven of the College of Engineering’s undergraduate programs are ranked second or better in the nation
Overall, the College is ranked No. 4 in the country — continuing a seven-year streak in that spot — and again tied with the California Institute of Technology. Among public universities, the College is No. 2 in the country.
Individual engineering discipline rankings are based solely on surveys of deans and faculty members at other universities. The U.S. News rankings are one indicator of the quality of an institution and can influence undergraduates, professors, prospective students, peer institutions, and the media.
The U.S. News rankings for undergraduate programs are released each September. The graduate school rankings are announced in the spring.
