Missouri University of Science and Technology is one of the nation’s best public universities when it comes to career placement for its graduates, student internships and overall value, according to the Princeton Review’s latest “The Best 390 Colleges – 2025 Edition,” released last week.
Missouri S&T is again ranked third among the nation’s top public universities for best career placement. The ranking is based on student ratings of career services collected by Princeton Review and graduate salary data from PayScale.com. Missouri S&T’s career opportunities and employer relations department is staffed with professionals who provide resources for students at all stages of their education and career goals.
S&T is ranked seventh on Princeton Review’s list of best public universities for internships. This rating is based on college student ratings of accessibility of internship placement at their university. One factor that contributes to successful internship placement is S&T’s career fair, held twice each year for students seeking internships as well as full-time employment. All students, including first-year students, are encouraged to attend career fairs.
S&T is ranked 17th among public universities for best value, or return on investment (ROI). For this ranking, the Princeton Review analyzed academic quality and selectivity, affordability, and availability and quality of financial aid packages, as well as salary and career prospects of graduates.
The Princeton Review chose 390 colleges for the 2025 rankings. They created in-depth school profiles for those 390 colleges based on candid feedback from over 160,000 students, covering academics, administration, campus life and financial aid. View Missouri S&T’s profile.
