Hi everyone....I now have 2 admits

....one from Stony Brook for MS in Computer Engineering and the other from Buffalo for MS in Computer Science...
Both match my interests so choosing is a matter of which one is better in terms of quality and job prospects...
Can anyone help me out?

If the voters could also comment on the reasons for their choice...

*BUMP*
Really need to know quick
Thanks!

AFAIK Computer Sc. @ Stony Brook is very good, i don't thing Stony Brook is very good in Computer Engg. Computer Science @ SBuffalo should be very good.
What would you like to study Comp. Sc. or Comp. Engg?

I concur with skremon.

@all voters:
Before casting your vote, please remember that the SUNY-SB admit is for Comp. Engg. and not CS.

TheGeek · 04-15-2005, 07:13 PM

@ Gforce...made the Computer Engineering and CS bold...should be easier to spot

Anyways, both SB and Buffalo do research in my interest fields i.e. Networks and Security even though the generally held perception is that Computer Engineering means hardware and Computer Science means software. That is the reason the dillemma is huge

What do I do?

Hi Geek, i must admit, i did not take this into consideration when i voted!!!

TheGeek · 04-15-2005, 08:34 PM

@TheBestUCanGet: well that's ok but does that change your choice?

THEBESTUCANGET · 04-16-2005, 04:20 PM

Good Question?
Well even i am not really sure of it!!!

My Advice: If after the conclusion of this poll you find that u still cant decide between SUNYSB or SUNYBuffalo then make the choice based on your own instincts. Believe me, u wont regret it!!!

Cheers!!!

Sorry, I voted for SB by mistake. I wanted to vote for buffalo.
If it was me, I would have taken computer science in Buffalo rather than computer engg in SUNY SB. The reason purely bcos my interest is in CS not Comp Engg.
