EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in New York State ranked based on their research performance in Engineering. A graph of 26M citations received by 776K academic papers made by 136 universities in New York State was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
