text: which do think is a better school for electrical engineering, ut austin or maryland college park?   you need to ask each school what their graduatuation rate is.  i don't know if ees take a national licensing exam but it seems reasonable, so find out what each school's pass rate is.  the higher results belong to the school you want to go to.  also consider expenses, tuition and living.  then make your own decision instead of relying on what other people say.  after all, you will be the one attending.
