Ranking the SEC schools academically?


I go to Florida and can attest to the graduate research programs. They're all top notch. But aTm is great too. Known for engineering. Florida for research in the sciences, with a solid engineering program.

LSU also:

•LSU is designated as having very high research programs and activity (RU/VH) by the prestigious Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, the highest ranking awarded to doctorate-granting institutions.

•LSU currently ranks among the top 30 public universities in total research awards. The University’s total federal funding; from agencies such as the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, and the Department of Homeland Security; has increased more than $90 million over the last five years.

*LSU's Petroleum Engineering Department annually ranks in the nation's top twenty programs and the Graduate School in the Craft & Hawkins School of Petroleum Engineering ranks in the nation's top five.
