Heyo, I'm knee-deep in college research and it's a bit overwhelming. I'm leaning towards engineering and want to set myself up for success. I'm curious, which university graduates the most students from its engineering program each year?
From a sheer numbers perspective, universities with large undergraduate populations tend to produce many engineering graduates. Among these, we see Arizona State University (ASU) often cited as the top. ASU's Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering is one of the largest engineering schools in the United States and graduates thousands of students each year in various subfields of engineering.
Following ASU, other universities notable for graduating a high number of engineering students include Purdue University, Pennsylvania State University, and Texas A&M University. These universities have robust engineering programs with a wide array of sub-disciplines that attract a large number of students.
But remember, the number of students graduating from a program isn't necessarily the only or most important factor to consider when choosing a school. You'll want to also consider factors such as the strength of the particular subfield of engineering you're interested in, the resources available to students, faculty, class size, research and internship opportunities, location, and of course, the overall fit of the college for you.
