I have seen rankings for graduate schools in the various fields in those CPC Career Planning Guides that seemed to manifest themselves in large quantities at the college Placement Office. I believe the source of the rankings was the National Academy of Sciences (although I am not sure). Other career placement guides also had rankings (from different sources), and just like in athletics, they differed by a litle, but not much. The last time I looked was in 1987, so I'm not sure if they still list the rankings. -------- Department of Computer Science | Rajeev "Raju" Pandey Computer Science Building 100 | Oregon State University | Internet: rpandey@cs.orst.edu Corvallis, OR 97331-3902 U.S.A. | UUCP: tektronix!orstcs!rpandey (503) 737-3273 fax: (503) 737-3014| UUCP: hplabs!hp-pcd!orstcs!rpandey -------- Department of Computer Science | Rajeev "Raju" Pandey Computer Science Building 100 | Oregon State University | Internet: rpandey@cs.orst.edu Corvallis, OR 97331-3902 U.S.A. | UUCP: tektronix!orstcs!rpandey (503) 737-3273 fax: (503) 737-3014| UUCP: hplabs!hp-pcd!orstcs!rpandey
