I was admitted to UCSD ECE BSMS program(my undergrad is at UCSD) and UT Austin ECE (ICS track) Master(to be followed by PhD). I am wondering which school is better in terms of VLSI, digital and analog integrated circuits? I am also confused by the admission term "master( to be followed by PhD)" of UT Austin. Is it master or PhD? If I cannnot find a supervisor, does it mean it is just a master program? Also, anyone from UT Austin ECE knows how hard it is to find a supervisor/internship?
