Methodology: The world’s best universities for engineering and technology, 2018 ranking by the CEOWORLD magazine is based on six major indicators of quality, overall Score (100%) is the sum of:

1) Academic Reputation
2) Admission Eligibility
3) Job Placement rate
4) Recruiter Feedback
5) Specialization
6) Global reputation and influence

Data for these indicators were collected from publicly available sources, research, survey, and university’s website. It measures the quality of education, job placements of students, and the recruiter’s feedback, without relying on university data submissions. Students, industry professionals, and recruiters were asked to rate institutions on a scale of 1 “marginal” to 100 “outstanding” or “don’t know.”

However, this is by no means a comprehensive list, while the institutions above are the CEOWORLD magazine’s list of the best engineering and technology universities in the world, 2018, there may be many other colleges that offer excellent programs.

* This ranking should not be viewed as the most important aspect when choosing a university, and are merely one element to consider.
* The top-ranked college receives 100 points.
* Universities within the same rank range are listed alphabetically.
* The rankings are the result of a rigorous analytical exercise, incorporating multiple data sources, without relying on university data submissions.
* Detailed survey data and information collected directly from 188,000 individuals, across 6 data points.
* Surveys completed by 96,500 students, 69,800 industry professionals, and 21,700 recruiters around the world.
* Magazine surveyed 188,000 people in 46 countries between September 5, 2017, and January 23, 2018.
*The overall score is numerical scores given to the universities based on students, industry professionals, and recruiter feedback — measuring the quality of the school. Total scores are out of 100.
