Engineering on the rise
As UMR's popularity continues to rise, so does our reputation.
U.S.News & World Report announced its college rankings today and the UMR undergraduate engineering program is ranked 48th on the list among schools that offer doctoral degrees. That's up three spots from last year's ranking of 51. If you only count public colleges and universities, UMR ranks 26th.
The annual U.S. News guidebook, America's Best Colleges 2007, hits newsstands next week.
UMR also nabbed the No. 54 spot on the guidebook's listing of the nation's top doctoral-granting public universities. We rank 112, when private institutions are counted.
