yeah, wow this is the first time i think i've seen academic rankings with arkansas below one of the two missippi schools, and in this one it's far below.


Arkansas is ranked ahead of both Mississippi schools unless I'm missing something.

As for Auburn engineering, I thinks it's clearly ahead of Bama's although Alabama has been gaining some ground the last couple of years. Alabama's hurt some by having some key engineering focus spread out between the Tuscaloosa and Huntsville campus (UAH). Aerospace engineering which for obvious reasons is very strong at UAH spreads the UA system thinner in this area than AU where all the engineering focus is on the main campus. The same thing could be said regarding biomedical engineering at UAB.

There was talk about AU opening a branch campus in Hunstville a few years back. I do not know what happened to those plans.
