We have separate rankings for undergraduate engineering program at schools that offer doctoral degrees in engineering and at schools whose terminal degree in engineering is a bachelor's or master's. Research at the graduate level often influences the undergraduate curriculum, and schools with doctoral programs in engineering tend to offer the widest possible range of offerings. Students who prefer a program focused on undergraduates can consult the list of top programs at schools whose terminal degree is the bachelor's or master's. Forty- five percent of those surveyed returned ratings of the group whose terminal degree in engineering is a bachelor's or master's; 59 percent did so for the doctoral group. We

Specifically, doctoral students in the dissertation writing phase noted that their graduatedegree takes them away from things they enjoy (median value of 6) and that they had very little time to doanything but their graduate engineering research (median value of 6), which could be leading to lowermotivation towards degree completion, consistent with previous findings across the literature [1
