Tons of good engineers come out of Cal Poly. I think it has been ranked "best value in engineering education" for 20 years. It seems to have a very practical engineering oriented bent. I.e. people go there to actually become engineers. When I was a TA at MIT all the engineering majors planned to work in finance or IP law.

- menloparkbum 17y ago2000. There were tons of people building stuff but still something like 40% of them went into Finance. I was TAing in EECS and almost everyone wanted to work on wall street. It looks like it's trended down a bit but still 29% of MIT grads go into finance. Also 13% go into "consulting" and 3 of the top 5 employers are McKinsey, BCG and Booz-Allen. http://web.mit.edu/facts/graduation.html http://web.mit.edu/facts/graduation.html
