McGill Engineering has been ranked one of Canada’s top two
Engineering Schools in the 2010 listing published by the
QS World University Rankings. Last year we ranked third in
Canada. Internationally, McGill Engineering placed 29th this year, coming
ahead of such well-known U.S. schools as Columbia, Yale, Northwestern, Penn
State and Texas A&M University. McGill Engineering is noted for the
expertise of its professors, the talent of its students, the exceptional
quality of its teaching and research and the contributions of its alumni. Our
Faculty is also a leader ― within McGill and across Canada ― in encouraging
interdisciplinary, inter-Faculty and inter-institutional approaches to
problem solving.
