I’m sure there are many others. This is just a sample.

There is one exception. The great lieral arts colleges are not the best schools for physics.

There are a few minor changes. While Harvard is ranked above MIT — MIT’s physics department is better. But Harvard will still be in the top ten.

The great state schools (e.g., Berkeley, UNC, Virginia, Georgia Tech and anything in the Big Ten) all have great programs. Choose them over lesser state schools.

I was making another list, when I realize they were all in the Big Ten conference.

I not sure how good their reputation is, but got good projects and facilities.

This is a very good site. Yes, I know it has graduate programs, but has detailed information on what kinda of faculty they have and their areas of research.
