The College of Engineering was No. 4 in the nation (up one spot) in this year’s edition of America’s Best Colleges, published on September 13, 2016.
All engineering specialties offered at Georgia Tech placed in the top 10 of their kinds with two just falling outside of the top four in their disciplines, a unique distinction for a program as large as Georgia Tech College of Engineering’s.
“I’m proud to see our College recognized year after year as one of the country’s best,” says Gary S.
