Does anyone know Fordham University's engineering ranking?

I'm considering applying for engineering at Fordham University, so I'm curious about how well-ranked their program is. Does anyone have information on their ranking, or can anyone share their experiences with the engineering program there?

Fordham University doesn't have a dedicated engineering school, but it does offer a dual-degree engineering program in collaboration with Columbia University and the Case School of Engineering at Case Western Reserve University. In this program, students spend three years at Fordham followed by two years at either Columbia or Case Western, to ultimately earn degrees from both institutions.

Since Fordham itself doesn't have its own engineering program, it doesn't have an engineering-specific ranking. However, both Columbia University and Case Western Reserve University have well-regarded engineering programs. As of the 2022 U.S. News & World Report rankings, Columbia's engineering school ranks #15, while Case Western Reserve's engineering school ranks #53.

If you're interested in pursuing engineering through this dual-degree option, you'll want to consider the reputations and specific strengths of Columbia and Case Western Reserve rather than focusing solely on Fordham's lack of a standalone program. Keep in mind that this path may be quite competitive, as it offers the opportunity to study engineering at two well-regarded institutions.

Of course, you will also need to be accepted to Fordham as a whole before applying to this specific program. If the dual-degree option seems like a good fit for your engineering goals, and you're looking for tips on how to maximize your chances of acceptance at Fordham, check out this blog post from CollegeVine, which breaks down how to tackle their school-specific supplemental essay prompts: https://blog.collegevine.com/how-to-write-the-fordham-university-essays. Best of luck with your college search!
