Auburn University’s Samuel Ginn College of Engineering was again recognized as a national leader in higher education, ranking among the nation’s top public institutions in U.S. News & World Report’s 2024 Best Undergraduate Engineering Programs.
The publication, which ranks undergraduate programs throughout the nation each fall, ranked Auburn Engineering No. 30, up three spots from No. 33 last year.
“Our consistent ranking among the top colleges across the country continues to validate the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering as a national leader in education and research, and it recognizes our mission of providing the best student-centered engineering experience in America,” said Mario Eden, dean of engineering. “Not only is this ranking a testament to our continued commitment to excellence, but it demonstrates that peer institutions recognize Auburn Engineering among the nation’s elite.”
Auburn Engineering also ranked No. 3 among public institutions in the Southeastern Conference and again No. 1 in the state. The college produces one-third of the state of Alabama’s engineering graduates annually and boasts several prominent alumni, including four astronauts and Tim Cook, CEO of Apple.
Diversity within Auburn’s eight engineering departments – aerospace; biosystems; chemical; civil and environmental; computer science and software; electrical and computer; industrial and systems; and mechanical – provide students with 13 different undergraduate degree opportunities, in addition to a host of graduate programs.
Auburn Engineering also ranks as the No. 31 public engineering graduate program and the No. 16 engineering graduate online program among all institutions.
