re: Where does LSU's engineering program rank in the list of SEC schools?

it varies by program. For example, currently, LSU's Construction Management and PETE programs are the best in the SEC (PETE best in the country), but computer science lags behind ULL. Vanderbilt leads the way in most engineering disciplines, but I know LSU's Chemical Engineering program is up there. Overall, I could be mistaken, but I think LSU's engineering program as a whole is top 5 in the SEC with Vanderbilt and Texas A&M for sure, but I don't know who else rounds out the top 5 (probably Auburn and Florida).

Florida is amazing, a lot of you are seriously under rating them. They have a great engineering department and one of the best in nuclear.
Tennessee has an Oak Ridge partnership and are seriously upgrading their facilities. They should be up in the top 5.

A&Ms PETE program is #1 in the country. LSUs usually hovers around #3 going back and with Stanford. Still damn good but not #1

Where does LSU's Mechanical Engineering Program rank in the SEC and nationally? Anybody know?

A&M has the top ranked PETE department in the country (well, it's a toss up between them and UT)
LSU is probably top 5 or 10, but there aren't a lot of schools that offer the degree.
Overall I think LSU has a good engineering program, with good industry support.

Still not used to seeing it associated with Engineering. LSU's CSC program pretty much sucks though.
That said according to this list LSU is higher than ULL
LINK
LSU #99
ULL didnt make list.
Most people in the industry have no clue about ULL's program no matter what they tell you about how good they were in the early 90s. After they redirected a lot of their funding their program has been falling steadily. (Im sure they find a way to blame LSU though)
Bottom line unless you go to an Ivy League School, MIT,Stanford,Carnegie Mellon or Texas or one of the Cal schools and maybe Michigan nobody really cares where you went in CSC. They treat everyone else based on their accomplishments alone. You would get laughed at out of the building if you tried to claim that your CSC degree from ULL had more meaning.
