Hello friends, I have got offer letters for my Doctoral Degree from the following choices. 1. University of Minnesota, ECE Department (Electrical Engineering, PhD) - Unofficial 2. University of Wisconsin, Madison, ECE Department (Electrical Engineering, PhD) 3. Pennsylvania State University, CSE Department (CSE Engineering, PhD) - Unofficial For all three schools i have applied under my area of interest : Computer Architecture & Embedded Processors. I would like to know which one of these school would be the best choice for me to go to if i am aiming for a career in Industry after my PhD. Which is the best in this particular field. Also in regard to the atmosphere for an international student in these schools. Also which is the best place to live in. I have contacted professor in all three school and in two of them have replied positively. They both nearly have the same credentials from what i could perceive. In all three i will be getting a RA position. I would really be grateful if you all help me out in any way. From my point of view different rankings rate the schools differently. In some places one is better than the other and in other rankings its vice-versa. Regards, Ashish
