Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to mechanical engineering/mechanical technology students as compared to other majors.
Major Demand - The number of mechanical engineering/mechanical technology students who choose to seek a associate degree at the school.
Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized mechanical engineering/mechanical technology related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for mechanical engineering/mechanical technology students working on their associate degree.
Since picking the right college can be one of the most important decisions of your life, we've developed the Best Mechanical Engineering/Mechanical Technology Associate Degree Schools in Ohio ranking, along with many other major-related rankings, to help you make that decision.
