I think a similar post was posted a while back and ASU made the cut. Maybe it was for a previous year.

I expected the three Silicon Valley schools. Was slightly surprised that GA Tech and UIUC were at the end of the list. Might be due to the size of the student body?

I can't remember the methodology used for that one. This one looked at almost 300,000 resumes of employees at 100 different major tech companies.

The reason Harvard, Yale, or MIT didn't make the list is mainly because of their low enrollment figures.
Harvard undergraduate enrollment is 1662 vs. UCLA at 30,000+

That's partially the reason. Some of these state universities are just ranked higher in computer science and engineering.
Ranking and location is probably more of a factor than student body size. But, also keep in mind that just because a school has a lot of undergraduate students doesn't mean that it has a lot of computer science, IT/IS, and engineering students. For example, even though UT has almost 10X as many students as MIT, it only has a little over twice as many computer science students.
Here are the undergraduate enrollments.

University of Washington - 36,302

I'm not sure where you got that figure for Harvard, but Harvard has over 7,000 undergraduate students. They might admit around 1,600 students each year, but you'd have to compare that figure to how many students UCLA admits each year, and UCLA is not admitting over 30,000 students every year.

Obviously, a lot of this is due to location; many companies are located where they can find a lot of graduates to hire.

Maybe only I was surprised that the article attached to the list is from 2017, but okay. I am interested in the dependence on the number of students to those specialties and the number of hires, that is, diplomas of which universities have more weight regardless of the volume of students

Except, student body size doesn't explain why every school is on the list. Several of the schools have just as many students as the Ivy League schools. Location also doesn't fully explain the list because some of the metro areas with the most tech jobs don't have any schools in the top 10.
