  • Beyond national borders, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar stands out as a comparable school for transportations, geotechnics and optics; it covers sound engineering and ergonomics and UX as well, and is slightly larger, at about 4,000 students against roughly 3,000 here.
  • University of Ecology and Management in Warsaw, in Poland, takes a similar route through transportations, geotechnics and optics; it is also a private institution and does not run the doctoral programmes found here.
  • For a study option in Germany with a comparable spread of transportations, optics and signal processing, Westsächsische Hochschule Zwickau is the reference point: it is public, whereas this institution is private, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes.
  • CentraleSupélec brings a France setting to the same core fields, optics, signal processing and fluid dynamics, and it is public, whereas this institution is private, and also offers graduate certificate programmes.

*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: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. 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 …).
