U-M places in top 10 rankings among graduate programs

Topics:

The U.S. News & World Report has finalized its 2024 Graduate School rankings for medicine, law and engineering following an earlier release of the 2024 rankings.

The College of Engineering was ranked No. 9 on the list of best engineering graduate schools.

Some other potentially noteworthy College of Engineering rankings in the top 5 were:

  • Nuclear engineering (1).
  • Industrial/systems engineering (2).
  • Environmental engineering (2).
  • Civil engineering (5).

Like many other peers, U-M’s law and medical schools did not participate in the U.S. News data collection for the 2024 or upcoming 2025 editions.

For the 2024 edition, more than 50 of the nearly 200 institutions did not participate in the statistical survey for law school rankings, although all schools were still ranked, with U-M’s Law School ranked No. 9. Ninety-two of the 196 institutions, including the U-M Medical School, did not participate in the statistical survey for medical school rankings and were therefore unranked.

The April 9 release of the graduate program rankings did not include engineering, medicine, law or clinical psychology programs, with the publication stating it was delaying the release of that information so it could “appropriately address queries from participating graduate schools.” The clinical psychology rankings are now expected next year.

Here’s a snapshot of U-M’s rankings that are part of this year’s announcement:

  • The School of Social Work ranked No. 1.
  • The College of Pharmacy ranked No. 2.
  • The Marsal Family School of Education ranked No. 3.  
  • The Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy ranked No. 4. 
  • The School of Public Health ranked No. 5.
  • The School of Nursing’s Doctor of Nursing Practice program ranked No. 8, and its master’s degree program ranked No. 7.
  • The Stephen M. Ross School of Business ranked No. 12.
