2. ETH Zurich - The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, commonly known as ETH Zurich, is recognized globally for its high-impact research and innovation in engineering and technology fields.

3. Technical University of Munich - Known for its strong emphasis on research, TUM offers comprehensive engineering programs across various disciplines, and is well-reputed in Europe and around the world.

4. University of Toronto, Canada - Recognized as one of the best engineering schools in North America, University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering gives students access to a huge array of engineering disciplines.

When considering international schools, it's also important to think over potential language barriers, cultural adjustments, and the process for securing student visas. You may also want to look into the university’s partnerships with industries, career services, internship opportunities, and outcomes for their graduates. Finally, you should consider the cost of education and living, and the availability of financial aid or scholarships, as these can vary greatly by country and university.
