For UG prestige, definitely Harvey Mudd, but it is undergrad only.

For faculty/PhD/research prestige, I guess RPI. (What else even is there? WPI, RIT, Stevens, anything else?)

Olin, Cooper Union

I don't think you can call MIT and Caltech engineering schools. They have a lot of pure science/math majors.

everyone knows an engineering school means math/sci/eng. it'd be really really faggot to call them "stem schools"

Harvey Mudd is a great school with students on par with mit and caltech but the name recognition just isn't as good. Cooper Union and Olin are also very good but small. RPI has good students and a reputation equal to the strength of its student body. I don't think it's necessary to go to a specialized school. I think going to a state flagship with a strong engineering program like Purdue, Michigan, or UIUC will get you the same job and you will have more fun.

MIT has like 1k kids per class, and GT is a BIGSTATE school with 5k kids per class. a smaller institution seems different than a specialized huge bigstate.

RPI should honestly be the top of the list. it's the only true engineering school of those listed.
