Hi, Is MS in CSE good wrt to MS in CS. The course structure seems good but I didn't find much CS professors in it? Should I consider applying to CSE rather than CS?.

Thanks for your reply. I have one big doubt - There are some universities with MS in Data Science course. Is applying to a particular course a good idea or shall I apply for MS in CS as general? Are these 2 courses same for the recruiters or MS in CS given more preference than MS in Data science? How will you rate these universities in terms of Computer science and data science?

I request you to kindly evaluate my profile and rate/suggest me some universities.GRE Score - 325v -159q -166awa -3 (screwed it up. will try to compensate in toefl)Toefl -Yet to giveInterested field - MS in CS / data analytics/ML UG: College: Jaypee Institute of Information Technology ,JIIT Noida University : JIITU Final Overall Percentage : 8.2/10 (in top 10) Work Experience: - Working as an Research Associate at IIITD under a prof. who did his MS/PHD from CMU.(FEB 2015 - present) a One Govt Funded Project (Big data/data analytics)b Assisting a PHD student with her research.
