The research covered the background of more than 800,000 graduates to determine which universities produced the most talent for major tech companies, and what university major companies tended to hire from most.
Using LinkedIn, SHL calculated the number of graduates from each institution working at 15 of the world's largest tech companies. The companies included Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Dell Technologies, IBM, Intel, HP, Facebook, Nvidia, Oracle, Adobe, Amazon, Samsung, Nintendo, and Sony.
The report identified the following universities as having the most graduates become employees at major tech companies, along with the number of employees.
University of Washington (16,786 employees) University of California--Berkeley (13,260 employees) Stanford University (12,973 employees) University of Texas--Austin (11,049 employees) University of Southern California (9,071 employees) Arizona State University--Tempe (8,320 employees) Carnegie Mellon University (8,274 employees) Georgia Institute of Technology (7,961 employees) University of California--Los Angeles (7,829 employees) University of Illinois--Urbana-Champaign (7,671 employees) ADVERTISING
The University of Washington blew away the competition with the most students becoming employees at major tech organizations. When looking at the breakdown by tech company, Washington graduates were the most popular choice for staff at Amazon and Microsoft.
At Silicon Valley-based companies such as Apple, Facebook and Google, however, Stanford grads appeared to be the most common.

The most coveted jobs are in Silicon Valley, and most selective US universities are members of the Ivy League. So it stands to reason that tech giants like Apple, Google, Amazon and Facebook would scoop up best and brightest from those bastions of power and privilege.
Think again. None of the eight Ivy League schools—Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth and the University of Pennsylvania—cracked the top 10 on a list of the universities sending the most graduates to tech firms, according to an analysis by HiringSolved, an online recruiting company. The company used data from more than 10,000 public profiles for tech workers hired or promoted into new positions in 2016 and the first two months of 2017.
Here are the schools with the most undergraduate and graduate alumni hired by the 25 biggest Silicon Valley employers in the last year:
1 University of California, Berkeley
2 Stanford University
3 Carnegie Mellon University
4 University of Southern California
5 The University of Texas at Austin
6 Georgia Institute of Technology
7 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
8 San Jose State University
9 University of California, San Diego
10 Arizona State University
The two universities at the top are no surprise: Stanford and Berkeley are major computer science and engineering powerhouses in the Bay Area, and tech firms have close relationships with their faculty and administrators (former Stanford president John Hennessy founded a microprocessing company). They’re followed on the list by two private universities with strong engineering programs. The rest of the top 10 are public universities.
What most of the schools in the top 10 share is size. The public universities on the list are among the largest in the US—Arizona State has almost 72,000 students, Texas has about 51,000—and their volume of engineering and computer science graduates make the universities attractive destinations for recruiters from firms hiring in big numbers. San Jose State alone has more than 7,000 engineering students in its 13 graduate and undergraduate programs—more than the total enrollment of Dartmouth. The exception is Carnegie Mellon, with an enrollment of about 14,000.
It’s not until the next 15 universities that the first Ivy school, Cornell, appears, along with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, one of the world’s premier universities for engineering.
11 University of Michigan
12 University of California, Los Angeles
13 North Carolina State University
14 California Polytechnic State University-San Luis Obispo
15 Cornell University
16 University of Waterloo (Canada)
17 Texas A&M University
18 University of Washington
19 Purdue University
20 Massachusetts Institute of Technology
21 Santa Clara University
22 University of Phoenix
23 University of California, Santa Barbara
24 University of California, Davis
25 Penn State University
Along with the big state schools, the next 15 also includes some anomalies, like the University of Waterloo, a Canadian school with strong ties to tech employers, and the University of Phoenix, a for-profit, online institution that has come under fire for its poor job placement record but still claims 213,000 students. Santa Clara, a small Catholic school, is located six miles from Apple’s headquarters.
While some of universities on the list are as selective at the Ivies, most are not. If the list tells us anything, it’s that admission to an elite university isn’t a prerequisite for a career in Silicon Valley, and what you know is more important than where you learn it.

Stanford的学生压根看不上FANNG,但S 几乎在每个公司都名列前茅。藤和MIT有华尔街和东部公司可去,所以在FANNG里不占多数。
万一我女儿去了咋办?
一拨是比较容易被金钱打鸡血的,一拨是比较喜欢弄出点东西顺带赚点钱的。
不过你们不会去的 LOL
要搬的就搬吧, 别的人也不要申请加州学校了, 加州正好人少点
然后再和其他学校比较 :)
去年我带闺女打球特地参观了ASU,印象很不错除了太热。
太低估儿子了

S 据说喜欢去Startup
小中男,都是去UCD. 一个是中国转学来读高中的,我儿子说他要不是英语不好,肯定进top UC CS. 一个小香港男,个子特别特别小,聪明得不得了,会不会是浓缩的都是精华啊!
其实很多州大的学生就业还是不错的,只是去高大上公司的要少些。去自己能excel的学校比较好,心理压力小些,毕业后找个比较合意的工作,再读个MBA,前途不比读藤的差。支持你!
