2023 Best Value Computer Engineering Schools in the Middle Atlantic Region
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Computer Engineering School for You
Out of all the majors we analyze each year, computer engineering was ranked #56 in the country. In fact 17,987 degrees and certificates were handed out in 2020-2021.
There are lots of options to pick from today when trying to decide which program is right for you. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.
To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Computer Engineering Schools in the Middle Atlantic Region ranking. Our analysis looked at 35 schools in the Middle Atlantic Region to see which programs offered the best value experiences for CE students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. 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.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
