Massachusetts Institute of Technology ended its four-year run at number one, replaced by Stanford University.
For the survey, we asked more than 1,500 readers who have hiring experience to score the country's top colleges based on how well they prepare their students for success after graduation. We used tuition as a tiebreaker, with cheaper tuition pushing a school to a higher spot.
Below, we filtered the responses to include only survey participants who say they work in the technology industry.
There was some minor shuffling in the bottom half. United States Naval Academy and United States Military Academy both inched forward three spots, pushing University of Chicago and University of Pennsylvania off the list and booting Yale to No. 9. University of California - Berkeley leapt from No. 17 on the main list to No. 10.
We also asked readers which college major will help students be most successful after graduation. While the general pool of respondents answered that business is the most helpful, our tech-industry readers said engineering was the most helpful (41%) followed by computer science (31%).

1. Stanford University
2. Massachusetts Institute of Technology
