2023 Best Value Mechanical Engineering Schools in Utah
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Mechanical Engineering Technology School for You
In 2020-2021, 53 degrees and certificates were awarded to mechanical engineering technology students who went to a Utah college or university. This makes it the #125 most popular major in the state.
With all the programs available today, it can be tough to choose which one is the best for you. As online education oppotunities continue to grow, you're not restricted to just schools in your local area anymore. Even some of the 'big name' schools are offering online courses. Also, there are a number of trade schools with offerings that you might find attractive.
To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Mechanical Engineering Schools in Utah ranking. This report analyzed 2 schools in Utah to see which ones offered the best value programs for ME tech 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.
