Hello everyone! I have received offers to study at ETH Zurich, Georgia Tech and USC, as of now, to take up an M.S. program in EE, with a specialization in Communications. At the moment, I am extremely confused between ETHZ and GaTech. Though I am predisposed towards ETHZ, as I have heard that the coursework and academics there are terrific, I am uncertain at the same time when it comes to job opportunities after graduation. I am an international (Non-EU) student, with no fluency in German, and I have heard that this category of students generally find it difficult to secure good jobs in Switzerland, despite having graduated from ETH. On the other hand, GaTech may not be as amazing a school as ETH, but certainly provides excellent job opportunities. Paying for the tuition is not a problem, as I have made arrangements to do so. Hence, money is not a limiting factor. I'm not sure whether I'll take up a PhD as well, though I'm definitely open to the idea. At the moment, I want to secure a good job in the core Telecom industry after graduating. Can someone highlight any aspects/issues that I should consider? I am really faced with a difficult dilemma. Thank you!
