  1. Hi, all. Looks like I would get two admissions from US universities: A- good university (top 50) with civil engineering (civil ranking top 5) ; B-good major with petroleum engineering (petroleum also ranking top 5, but the university ranking 100) Here are some key points: admission: A would offer me two years master with RA; B would offer me four or five years phd with RA/TA professor: In A, I would be co-advised by one old professor and one assistant professor; In B, I would be advised by a chair professor Place & Life: A is in a very good city; B is in a small town. In A, it would be not very busy, then you have time to find job. In B, it would be very busy for experiment and lab testing. Internship: In A group, I can find and go for internship at anytime if I can get it; In B group, I think the professor only permit me to go for one time internship. By the way, In A group, I think it's easy to transfer to a PhD after 1.5 half years. By the way, I have had mechanical bachelor and petroleum master background. Maybe, have a new civil background is more interesting. good university or good major, which one is more important? Please shed some light on it. Thanks Michael
