Here,in SB,only 6-7 of the 70 Indians have got internships till date.Ppl are not even getting interview calls

I'm currently doing MS in CS I've put everything i know about the dept here Edulix

me 2 in the same boat(SB)..i am no more optimistic :(

Hi SK84 Hope u would have joined in Fall08.Where did u join & what was the reasons? Please share the info & the reality in the US..this would help me a lot next fall.. & ATB for ur grad studies Thanks

Kumaraguru ive sent u an email -raady

RTP & the advanced networking courses r the only tempting factors

hi jaskarsingh i was wondering whether i cud know what ur decision is ,coz me too on the same boat

so H1B sponsorhips are profile based?I mean companies do/dont prefer international ppl for a particular kinda profile or smt like that?? I donno the exact job profile name..but im interested in network protocol,product design,enchancement etc...of course not restricted to these..

ive admits frm UFL(40% aid),Buffalo..what abt ur choices? do update me abt the scenario in NCSU..& other places,frm where u've got admits

of course Im willing to pay that extra $10k+ ..even in ncsu ill be doing at max 4-5 advanced n/w subjects..rest will be generic subjects...im interested in any networking company& not restricted to that..

of course Im willing to pay that extra $10k+ ..even in ncsu ill be doing at max 4-5 advanced n/w subjects..rest will be generic subjects...im interested in any networking company& not restricted to that..i just feel that location(RTP being near) will help in getting better jobs

considering that living & misc expenses to be same ,only the tuition differs UFL is $17k(after 40%waiver) for the whole 30 credits & NCSU is $27k(non thesis)..

see MAITRI FAQ (the ISA in NCSU..) they say "very very very lucky if u get aid"

Hi kumaraguru By now u wud be deciding on the options...Let me know if u have any info on NCSU...& ofcourse other univs Raady

now UFL(40%aid) adds to this list

Leaving aside Top notch univs(~top20) does this really apply to all other univs within top 50-60 ranks...I feel that college location(city or industrial hub like CA,NC..or village)& reputation of the univ in the related industry & related course work(esp specialization at least in terms of coursework) is all that matters.

1)umcp 2)sb

em too in the same boat...I am inclined towards NCSU...NCSU strikes a balance...NC is next to CA for technical jobs otherwise TA/RA/oncampus situation is equally bad in all these i heard...

Hi Im in the same position with Buffalo Vs UFL(40%aid) Vs NCSU (8lacs) (10lacs) (17lacs) I want to specialize in n/w's which is possible only in NCSU..but at the cost of 17lacs Do u think its worth doing a masters without specialization?

Hi all ive got admits for MS in Cs fall 2008 frm NCSU& buffalo ur comments on the follwing wud help me a lot 1. Financial expense is important for me- given that Buffalo is going to cost me ~10lacs& ncsu ~20lacs which do u thnk will be better for me in terms of job opportunities & ROI. 2.Do companies like cisco,qualcom,juniper etc consider all (ofcourse leaving aside top notch colleges) top 50 colleges on par for recruiting? or is it like whats there in India i.e.IITs>>>NITs>others?
