Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Course Advisor has created the Best Value Engineering-Related Fields Schools in Massachusetts to help you in your search for the best school for you. This report analyzed 4 schools in Massachusetts to see which ones offered the best value programs for engineering-related fields students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
Our ranking of value is based on the quality of a program as defined in our per sticker price dollar. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
In our regional and nationwide rankings, out-of-state tution and fees are used in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
