Methodology | Within the US News Best Graduate Schools Rankings 12 broad areas are considered, and each of the broad area list includes a few specialties and programs, e.g. Best Business Schools Ranking includes two programs and 13 specialties (with a separate list prepared for each of them), Best Fine Arts Schools Ranking includes seven specialties, Best Health Schools Ranking includes 14 specialties, etc. Each broad area has its separate methodology and in case of three broad areas, a separate methodology is considered for each program/specialty. For each broad field there is a separate methodology. For example the U.S. News’ Best Social Sciences and Humanities rankings, the U.S. News’ Best Sciences rankings, the U.S. News’ Best Library and Information Studies rankings are based solely on the results of peer assessment surveys sent to academics in each discipline. The individuals rate the quality of the program at each institution on a scale of 1 (marginal) to 5 (outstanding). The U.S. News’ Best Law Schools rankings evaluate institutions on their successful placement of graduates, their faculty resources, the academic achievements of entering students, and opinions by law schools, lawyers and judges on overall program quality. The U.S. News’ Best Engineering Schools rankings compare schools on their research activity, faculty resources, academic achievements of entering students and assessments by other engineering schools and employers.
