Which of the following is the best for HEP experiment?
Posted: Sat Mar 06, 2010 6:15 pm
My friend is interested in HEP experimental analysis (not hardware... mostly for searches for new physics), how would one rank the following schools?
Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Boston U, Rochester, Columbia, Rutgers, U Mich
I think Cornell, U Mich and Johns Hopkins are the better ones but I have no idea about the others...
Cornell seems to be the most prestigious according to US news (and also an ivy) and has a load of HEP faculties, though how much does that really factor in?
Furthermore, are there any big name advisors in any of the school that one should be aware of? I'm mostly theory and can't really help my friend...
My friend would like to kill the obvious ones.. and decline em so more spots might open up for other people...
Thank you very much for the help!
