National Reputation Growing for College’s Value, Academic Quality, Science Facilities, and Career Placement
For the 24th consecutive year, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology has been ranked the nation’s No. 1 engineering college that’s focused on bachelor’s- and master’s-level education.
This recognition comes from U.S. News & World Report’s 2023 Best Colleges Guide after its annual survey of college engineering deans and senior faculty across America. They were asked to rate programs at accredited undergraduate engineering programs on a scale of 1 (marginal) to 5 (distinguished). Rose-Hulman tallied a 4.6 score, tops out of 230 colleges nationwide in the category.
Rose-Hulman also once again earned No. 1 rankings nationally in two academic department categories: Electrical engineering and mechanical engineering.
These rankings follow Rose-Hulman earning all-time marks for internships (No. 1), science lab facilities (No. 1), career services (No. 3), student support and counseling services (No. 3), residence halls (No. 5), and career placement (No. 6) in student surveys gathered to determine the nation’s bets colleges and universities for the 2023 edition of The Princeton Review’s “The Best 388 Colleges” book.
Rose-Hulman President Robert A. Coons states that these resources – among several national distinctions by publications and organizations – showcase the institute’s growing national reputation as a leader in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education and a top value in higher education, with a strong return on investment.
