2. Texas A&M University — Texas A&M's Dwight Look College of Engineering is another excellent choice for electrical engineering.

3. Rice University — Known for its strong emphasis on research and a collaborative learning environment, Rice University's School of Engineering is a great option for an electrical engineering major. The program focuses on interdisciplinary research and allows students to work closely with faculty members on important projects.

4.
