program ranking of universities
The Chronicle of Higher Education just published its ranking of all programs (fields) of universities in the States.
http://chronicle.com/stats/productivity
This ranking is based on the productivity (publications, citations, grants and awards, nothing else), rather than people perceptions (department head's evaluations) as US News and World Report.
Of course one should never take any ranking very seriously, but it is interesting to take a look at this website.

Dear Zhigang, It also
