Description

Oregon State University ranks fifth in the nation in the number of bachelor's degrees awarded annually in engineering. School leaders say they were surprised when the University of Oregon announced plans last month for its own engineering school.

Phil and Penny Knight delighted the University of Oregon last month with their latest big-ticket donation, $1 billion to establish an engineering school in Eugene that plans to add dozens of faculty and hundreds of students.
