Hello,
I have secured admission in
1. MSCS from CMU and
2. MEng in EECS from UCB with specialisation in Visual Computing and Computer Graphics with $16,000 grant
I am confused between the two as I am not sure if a one-year MEng program would be treated equivalent to an MS, when it comes to job prospects. My aim is working in the industry, preferably industrial research at places like Disney Labs, or Dreamworks Research. I am pretty sure I won't be doing a PhD in the near future, at least.
Will UCB give me an edge as the program is industry centric with an intensive capstone project in a specialisation of my choice? Or will CMU be better being an MS degree (but with only course work)?
Any advice would be really helpful, thank you in advance!
