After twelve consecutive years of high rankings, UW-Madison’s College of Engineering has ranked #8 for online graduate engineering and #5 for veterans for 2023.
“As a leader in online graduate engineering education for over 25 years, we’re grateful and proud to be recognized for fostering an outstanding experience and building relationships with each individual learner,” says Ed Borbely, Associate Dean for Interdisciplinary Professional Programs in the College of Engineering. “We work closely with alumni and employers to continuously innovate and ensure that our active learning programs continue to provide depth and breadth across engineering and management disciplines. Our team creates an environment that fosters an inclusive community of learners and achievers who are there for each other throughout their careers.”
The College of Engineering has a range of options for pursuing advanced degrees, from traditional residential programs, accelerated programs, and fully online degrees. Across this range, the College offers possibilities for students no matter where they are in their careers and lives. One particular advantage of fully online degrees is that the programs can fit into students’ lives without disrupting their careers—a clear benefit in this time of economic uncertainty.
