So here's a typical forum question - what to choose between 2 apparently excellent choices.
I have been admitted to both the Berkeley IEOR and the Stanford MS&E programs (both Masters).
Money is not an issue since I have a full scholarship regardless of which option I take (internaitonal student).
Although both programs may appear to be quite different, my main interest is the technology aspect, specifically related to entrepreneurship. Berkeley has the Management of Technology Program and Stanford has something similar. I'm not too concerened about employment opportunities once I graduate because my plan is to return to my current company (technology firm I co-founded) and apply my new knowledge there. Therefore I would say that my main priorities are:
- Quality of the courses
- Focus on entrepreneurship
- Networking opportunities
Any feedback regarding this interesting dilemma will be much appreciated!
