Watch: University of Cincinnati renovates Siddall Hall
Siddall Hall, a University of Cincinnati housing facility, is expected to reopen for the Fall 2024 semester after 18 of construction. Take a look.
U.S. News & World Report recently released a ranking of America’s best engineering schools, and a handful of Ohio universities received some love.
The outlet individually ranked the top 90% of schools. The remaining 10% only received a ranking range, rather than a specific number. Ohio has eight schools in the top 90%.
Factors that include research expenditures, faculty resources and ratings from other engineering schools and employers were taken into account for the ranking, which was curated from fall 2023 to early 2024.
Overall, the ranking carries an emphasis on research rather than reputation or selectivity, as it’s meant to encompass both undergraduate, graduate and doctorate programs.
Here’s which Ohio schools received top honors, along with where they fell in the national ranking.
