School rankings are some times quite deceptive. MIT ranks first in general
in a lot of areas, but in chemical engineering, for example, U. of
Wisconsin ranks first. It is more important to choose a good program and a
good advisor than to choose a school which has high rankings. I believe our
economics department ranks above Iowa State, that does not say much because
there are so many good programs in economics, unless you go to Harvard or
MIT or Standford or Berkeley, your future as an Economics PhD is somewhat
uncertain (I know of many economics PhDs who cannot find jobs after
graduation). But those good economics programs are extremely difficult to
get in because they try to get more local students rahter than foreign ones
these days. Besides, I always think your background fits EE better than
economics.
