Officially Tufts University Class of 2011! I'm in the M.S. Civil & Environmental Engineering program with a focus on Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering. Probably going to advance to the Ph.D program, but I'll worry about that when I get there. I received a large scholarship, will probably cost me about $2500/semester for tuition, but Boston is expensive, so I'll definitely be working on the side during school (maybe local design firm? any connections anyone?). Will also be working on research on off shore wind turbines at the school with a great guy (Professor Edgers, who originally interested me in the program) that will probably end up leading to my thesis. So glad to be in the Boston area after spending four years in upstate New York (Troy) going to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Anyone else going to grad school in the Boston area? If so, any info. on local work while in school or apartments?
