Most Similar Schools Abroad
- For automation, manufacturing and mechanical engineering outside the home country, Donbas State Engineering Academy in Ukraine is a natural reference; it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and is smaller, enrolling about 5,000 students against roughly 8,000 here.
- Students considering a move abroad can look at National Metallurgical Academy of Ukraine in Ukraine, where automation, manufacturing and mechanical engineering also form the core, and it is slightly smaller, at about 7,000 students against roughly 8,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Students considering a move abroad can look at Luleå University of Technology in Sweden, where manufacturing, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics also form the core, and it is larger, enrolling about 19,000 students against roughly 8,000 here, and is also a public institution.
- Seen from abroad, National Institute of Technology Jamshedpur (India) is a close relative on subject matter, since manufacturing, materials and software engineering are central to both, and it covers AI and machine learning as well, and is smaller, enrolling about 5,000 students against roughly 8,000 here.
- A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on manufacturing, mechanical engineering and electrical and electronics is PSG College of Technology in India, and it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and covers AI and machine learning as well.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
